No Components Table Name Component 1: Construction of High Capacity Highway:(Cost $340.00 M) Component 2: Institutional Development and Regulatory Framework:(Cost $18.00 M) Component 3: Road Safety and Institutional Development Support to the Transport Sector:(Cost $12.00 M) Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Moderately Unsatisfactory Moderately Unsatisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Moderately Unsatisfactory Moderately Satisfactory Overall Risk Rating Substantial Substantial Implementation Status and Key Decisions Civil Works: Construction of Zeway-Arsi Negele Road (Lot 3, financed by the World Bank) is progressing on the first 5 kms, albeit with at a slower pace. After a long delay, the contractor has now been granted access to the quarry site and borrow pits and RAP have been prepared for some additional 24 Km. There are no impediments to works progress on this lot now. Status of implementation of associated projects: This is now the fifth time that Bank team visited the Modjo-Hawassa road (all four Lots). During the visits the team met and discussed project implementation issues with all contractors and consultants. Progress of construction on each of these Lot is: 81 % in Lot 1 (AfDB), 61% in Lot 2 (Korea Exim Bank), 5% in Lot 3 (World Bank), and 9% in Lot 4 (China Exim Bank). The first two lots are Phase 1 while the last two are Phase 2. 12/10/2019 Page 1 of 6 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Ethiopia- Expressway Development Support Project (P148850) Technical assistance to Government: The two consultancy services (i) design of an Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) along the Modjo- Hawassa corridor (ERA), and (ii). road safety audit on selected corridor sections on 2000km are progressing well, and 500km is to be prioritized for safety improvements. The technical assistance to ERA and Ministry of Transport (MoT), including a TA to the Addis-Adam Toll Road Enterprise and piloting road safety enforcement and activities on selected corridors are at advanced stage of procurement,while support for National Road Safety Council activities under MoT continues.
