As a consequence, it has been rated MU for both the DO and IP for more than 12 months. A Mid Term Review was carried out in April 2014, and was followed by a Level Two project Restructuring, scaling down project activities to those activities that can be completed by December 2015, and adjusting the project results framework accordingly. In addition, approx. $8 million were canceled, with remaining funds totaling US$10.77 million. Following funds cancellation, the project's disbursement ratio increased from 24% to 38%. In order to support acceleration of the project implementation, the Bank Team has been providing implementation support very closely, with weekly exchange of emails, monthly review of the detailed procurement plan, and 4 missions planned for 2015. This ISR is prepared on the basis of the findings of a recently conducted implementation support mission between November 7-14, 2014, and on recent program developments witnessed by the W.Bank team who continuously monitors the program on the ground. Activities across the two project components are showing different degrees of progress: Component 1 - Institutional and Capacity Development: The overall status of the Institutional and Capacity Development Component continues to see progress with the advancement of key activities, which justifies the maintaining of the recently upgraded rating of Moderately Satisfactory. The National Multi-Sector GIS System contract has been signed and the firm commenced its services in October, with the draft Inception Report submitted in November. Several studies, TA, and supporting equipment and goods have been commissioned, acquired or are currently being procured to support specific cross-cutting institutional development programs. Procurement of Management of Commercial Cargo, Maritime Cabotage Legal Framework, Lobby and Advocacy for SDIs is on track, with the respective contracts being signed and the respective services expected to start soon after. The RFP for the consultancy services to elaborate Traffic Safety and Standard Improvement, as well as HIV/Aids prevention and mitigation among the corridors have been issued, and are currently in the negotiation stage. Component 2: Spatial Development Initiative: The mission observed that the overall implementation of the Spatial Development Initiative is on track after a slow progress during the first years of the project. The rating of this component continues to be Moderately Satisfactory. The work for the Umbrella Social and Environmental Sector Assessments (SESAs) is progressing with the final report expected by the end of the year. The Sector Scans of the Maputo, Nacala and Beira are ongoing and the Sector Scan and Investment Opportunity Assessments for Lubombo, Lichinga-Pemba and North- South Corridors and Pre-Feasibility Study for Design of the Business Model of North South Railway line in its final procurement phase.
