Project Description

Gender considerations
Three meetings consultation have been conducted with women and
during the meeting most of women attended have welcomed the
establishment of the new road and hoped that it will participate highly
in improving the life indices in their villages. Expected advantages
from establishing the road as reported by the consulted women are
the following:
-
Employment Opportunities
During the construction phase, the construction activities can be
considered as a temporary positive impact, as work opportunities can
be provided to the local labor living close to the project route.
-
Project objectives
Development objectives
The main objective of the Road Rehabilitation and Maintenance
Program Project in Kholan is to improve transport efficiency through
rehabilitation and maintenance of the national road infrastructure and
enhanced public sector capacity to plan, regulate and monitor
Mitigation Plan
The majority of the proposed mitigation measures is part of the works
contract and listed in the BOQ. In addition, the General Specifications
and Regulations (attached as annex of the contract documents)
contain specific environmental, health and safety requirements for
proper management of construction waste, waste fuel, oil and
lubricants, noise and dust, temporary storage of construction
materials, and maintenance of equipment. The list of mitigation
measures are presented in Table 1. The cost of mitigation measures
(other then those already included in the BoQ) is expected to reach
20,793 USD.
health units. There are 6 schools in the villages along the road. There
is no telephone network (land line) in the area of the project;
residents rely on mobile phones as 3 telecommunication companies
cover the area.
Employment
Agriculture is the main source of income for the population served by
the road, with the main agricultural crop being corn. Soils are fertile
but agriculture is mainly rain fed and consequently, yields are very
limited and almost nil in a dry year. The main water sources in the
project area are wells and small springs. Runoff water is also collected
mainly for irrigation. Residents rely sometimes on cisterns
transporting water at a price ranging from 5 to 7 $ per m3 of water.
