The program has the overall objective to increase transport connectivity between neighboring countries in Central Asia along priority cross-border road links whilst supporting improvements in road operations and maintenance practices. The project development objective (PDO) of the First Phase of the Central Asia Road Links Program (CARs-1) is to increase transport connectivity between the Kyrgyz Republic and Tajikistan along priority cross- border road links in Batken Oblast whilst supporting improvements in road operations and maintenance practices. The road sections to be financed under CARs-1 prioritize connectivity between the Osh and BatkenOblast in the Kyrgyz Republic and Sugd Oblast in Tajikistan as they build lateral spurs from the Osh-Isfana axis to the Tajik border. Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project Objective? No PHRPDODEL Components Name Rehabilitation of Priority Road Sections in Batken Oblast:(Cost $51.30 M) Improvement of Road Operations and Maintenance Practices:(Cost $1.70 M) Project Management and Implementation:(Cost $1.00 M) Overall Ratings 1/23/2017 Page 1 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Central Asia Road Links - Kyrgyz Republic (P132270) Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO  Satisfactory  Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP)  Moderately Satisfactory  Moderately Unsatisfactory Overall Risk Rating  Substantial  Substantial Implementation Status and Key Decisions As the project has been effective for a total of 24 months (since December 14, 2014), the Bank team continues to highlight the overall slow implementation progress and delays experienced under the project. Taking into account that advance procurement was initiated before the project became effective, the progress of civil works is substantially behind schedule and disbursement is slow. Activities such as the implementation on a pilot basis of the weight-in-motion systems at both Kemin and Sosnovska are progressing. The Ministry of Transport and Roads, the Ministry of Finance, as well as the Prime Minister’s office are aware of slow implementation progress. A Project Coordinator was hired within IPIG in order to help speed up project implementation progress. Project management and project implementation progress are rated moderately unsatisfactory. Despite these delays, it is expected that the overall project development objective can be achieved. 1/23/2017 Page 2 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Central Asia Road Links - Kyrgyz Republic (P132270) 1/23/2017 Page 3 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Central Asia Road Links - Kyrgyz Republic (P132270) 1/23/2017 Page 4 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Central Asia Road Links - Kyrgyz Republic (P132270) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance  --  High  High Macroeconomic  --  Substantial  Substantial Sector Strategies and Policies  --  Substantial  Substantial Technical Design of Project or Program  --  Moderate  Moderate Institutional Capacity for Implementation and Sustainability  --  Moderate  Substantial Fiduciary  --  Substantial  Substantial Environment and Social  --  Moderate  Moderate Stakeholders  --  Moderate  Moderate Other  --  --  -- Overall  --  Substantial  Substantial Results Project Development Objective Indicators PHINDPDOTBL  Volume of freight through Kyzyl-Bel/Guliston and Kairagach/Madaniyat border crossing points (Tones/year, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 500,000.00 500,000.00 500,000.00 550,000.00 Date 01-Nov-2013 29-Jun-2016 02-Dec-2016 30-Apr-2019 Comments No updated values available 1/23/2017 Page 5 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Central Asia Road Links - Kyrgyz Republic (P132270) PHINDPDOTBL  Market accessibility index of Batken Oblast (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 4.60 4.60 4.60 5.50 Date 01-Nov-2013 29-Jun-2016 02-Dec-2016 30-Apr-2019 Comments No updated values available yet PHINDPDOTBL  Road users satisfied with maintenance of the Pulgon-Batken road section (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 0.00 0.00 80.00 Date 01-Nov-2013 29-Jun-2016 02-Dec-2016 30-Apr-2019 Comments No updated values available yet PHINDPDOTBL  Annual budget allocation for routine (summer and winter) maintenance for road sections in sustainable condition along the corridor under OBI UAD (Amount(USD), Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 80,000.00 80,000.00 80,000.00 200,000.00 Date 01-Nov-2013 29-Jun-2016 02-Dec-2016 30-Apr-2019 1/23/2017 Page 6 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Central Asia Road Links - Kyrgyz Republic (P132270) Comments No updated values available yet.
