SECOND ROAD MAINTENANCE AND REHABILITATIONPROJECT
I. LOAN AND PROJECT SUMIARY
Borrowert Government of Barbados (GOB).
Executing Agency: Ministry of Public Works, Communications and Transportation (MCW).
Amount: US$21.2 million aquivalent.
Terms: 15 years, with 5 years of grace, at the standard variable interest rate. Project Objectives: The objectives of the proposed project are to: (a) install and implement sound maintenance policies and procedures on the road network; (b) preserve the capital base of road infrastructure within the constraintson capital and current expenditures; (c) reduce investmentcosts by transferringall capital works to the private sector and explore the relative merits of private sector participation in carrying out road maintenance activities; (d) improve road safety; and (e) help the Government in its efforts to privatize passenger transport services. Project Description: The project finances a share of MCW's Five-Year (1992/93-1996/97) Investment Plan which was appraised jointly by the Bank and the CDB and is financed in parallel by both organizations. The Bank project will finance: (a) rehabilitation of two sectione of Highway 6; (b) a safety program consistingof improvementto five road intersections; (c) an overlay program involving about 160 km of high-priority roads; (d) rehabilitation of culverts and bridges; (e) a pilot program of routine road maintenance by contract; (f) equipment acquisition and rehabilitation in line with the requirementsof the Four-YearRoad Maintenance Plan; and (g) an institutionalimprovement program consistingof: technical assistancefor road maintenanceand workshop operations;training and retraining programs; and studies to rationalize the road network and privatize public bus transport services. Project Benefitss The projectwill result in substantialupgrading of about 30S of the primary and secondary road networks and a significant reduction in transport cost, traffic congestion and accidents. The project will assist in the transfer of capital works and periodic road maintenance to private contractors, increase efficiency of road maintenance operations and improve equipment availability. The project will allow the Government to carry out vital capital and periodic maintenance works under drastically lower budgetary allocations agreed upon as part of the IMF 1992 stand-byagreement. In addition, the project will lead to an action plan to privatize passenger transport services and reduce to a minimum Government subsidies to the publicly-owned bus company (Transport Board). -2-
Project Risks: The project carries little risk from the technical point of view. However, the agreed road maintenance and investment programs represent the minimum levels needed to preserve the road network; any further budget reductionswill endanger the level of service of the road iafrastructure. We expect that the agreementwith the IMF will make further budgetary cuts unnecessary. Aloo, political factors could deter the Governmentfrom proceedingwith privatizationof passenger transportservices which are currently provided by the publicly-owned bus company. The project is designed so that overlay works FY94/95 and beyond will not proceed until there is satisfactory progress on this privatizationprogram.

A. General
2.1 Barbados is a relatively stiallisland with a population of 244,000 and a total area of 430 square kilometers. It enjoy., however, an extensive paved road network of 1,550 km (Table 1). The paved road density, at 3.6 km per square kilometers, is high in comparison with other islands of a similar size (Grenada- 1.5; St. Vincent - 1.5; St. Lucia - 1.1). The relatively flat terrain (except for the northeastern part of the island) and the higher standard of living (GDP per capita in Barbados is more than three times higher than the other islands mentioned above) contribute to the incrffasedroad network size. Nevertheless,maintenance of some low-traffictertiary roads could be minimized without affecting the efficiency of the system.
2.2 Barbados has spent substantialresources on developing its elaborate road network. The level of road investmentspeaked in FY86/87 at about $B43 million (Table 2); it has declined in subsequentyears reflecting the completion of major projects (the northern access road and the airport road). Total road investment as a percentage of public sector investment reached a high of 26% in FY86/87, but declined to a more reaeonable 16-18S in recent years (Table 3). In terms of current expenditures, the road sector accounted for 6-9S of public sector expendituressince 1984 (Table 3).
2.3 In addition to roadst the transport system in Barbados consists of one deep water port, several fishing ports and one major internationalairport. There are no railways in Barbados. The main road cargo traffic consists of sugar cane being transported from the producing areas to the ret;neries, rum and molasses which are exported, internal transport of construction materials, especially cement, and general cargo of imports of foodstuff and industrial products.
2.4 In September 1991 the Governmentembarked on a stabilizationprogram that led to a Stand-by arrangement with the IMP in February 1992. The Government reduced the overall public sector deficit from 7.31 of GDP in FY90/91 to 1S in FY91/92 and plans to eliminate it in subsequent years. To achieve this, the Government reduced drastically its capital and current expenditures. Consequently, the investment 2rogram of the Ministry of Public Works, Communicationsand Transportation (MCW) for PY91/92 was reduced by about $B10 million to a level of $B30 million (of which investmentsin roads amount to about $B26 million). The Government also reduced MCW's payroll from 2,500 to about 1,300. The reduced level of investmentand staff will coincide with elimination of all force-accountcapital works and a transfer of most periodic maintenance works to private contractors.
2.5 The Government's strategy for the sector now calls for a minimum investmentin new constructionand reconstructionworks which will be limited to a few high-priorityprojecta, a shift in focus to efficient management of the existingnetwork, especiallyadequate road maintenancepolicies, and an increased role for the private sector in carrying out this strategy. The Government intends to mobilize substantialexternal resources to enable implementationof the required investments and periodic maintenance works and improve the efficiency of public transport sector entities. -4-
B. InstitutionalSetu,
2.6 The Ministry of PublicWorks, Communicationsand Transportation(MCW) is responsible for planning, construction and maintanance of the public road network. MCW customarily prepares engineering studies for small projects and supervises all but the largest capital works carried out by contractors. In addition,MCW has been carrying out some civil works through force-Sccount. MCW is also responsible,through its Licensing Authority, for vehicle registration and ivsapection,issuance of drivers' licenses, compliance with vehicle weight regulation,and regulationof passenger transport. The InternationalTransport and CommunicationsDivision of MCW is responsiblefor air services and oversees the operation of the internationalairport. The organizationalstructure of MCW is given in chart I. The Government-owned Transport Board (TRB) operates passenger transport services. The operations of the Bridgetown Port is the responsibilityof the Barbados Port Authority (BPA).
C. Ports
2.7 Almost all importsand exportsare handled in .he deep water port (30 ft. draught) at Bridgetown. The port commenced operations in 1961 and is well served by marine liners,which provide connectionswith most trading partners. The port facilities, which include six deep-water berths, cargo handling facilities,four transit sheds and administrativefacilities, were expanded and improved in the late 1970's with assistancefrom the IDB. The port's container facility was expanded in recent years and a large crane handling 24 containers per hour was purchased with EEC's assistance. In addition, there are private unloading facilitiesfor aviation fuel and crude oil (ownedby the oil companies) sad coal (owned by Barbados Light Company). The cement plant at Arawak also has its own export facilities. Finally, there are numerous small fishing ports located around the island.
2.8 The Barbados Port Authority (BPA) administers the deep water port, except for stevedoring,which is in private hands. Total traffic in the port in both 1989 and 1990 amounted to about 600,000 tons, substantially above the figures for the three preceding years, but about the same as the traffic level in the early 80's, before the port lost significanttrans-shipment traffic to St. Lucia (Table 4). Container traffic showed consistent growth over the period, from 294,000 tons in 1986 to 435,000 in 1990, and now accounts for over 702 of total traffic. Most cargo traffic at the Bridgetown port is inbound (over 86X of the total) reflecting the trade imbalance. The port also provides a cruise ship stop-over point with duty-free facilities. In 1990, total passenger arrivalswere about 378,000, up substantiallyfrom the 303,000 in 1988. The port management hac introduced several improvements in recent years to reduce operating cost. BPA has shown an operating profit every year up to 1990 (e.g. $B1.3 million in 1988 and $B1.6 million in 1989). The loss in 1990 was a minimal $BO.2 million, after a $BO.5 million provision for foreign exchange losses and one-time expenses related to dismissal of some staff.
2.9 The port facilities are sufficient to handle the traffic in the foreseeablefuture. Containercapacity, at 75,000 TEU annually, is substantially above the present traffic level of 39,000 TEU, while other breakbulk and bulk cargo traffic are not showing significantgrowth. BPA is developing plans for additional facilities to recapture the trans-shipmentmarket, but financing for this purpose from private sources does not seem likely at the moment. -5- D. Airort
2.10 The GrentlyAdams International Airport is Barbados'only airport. A new terminalbuilding and other facilities,coating about $B28 milllon,were completedin 1980with Assistancefrom CIDA ($Can10 million). The facilityis designedto cater to aaarly3 millionpassengers, substantially above the 1990 figureof 1.6 million(Tablo 5). The runwaywas rehabilitatedin 1986with CDB financingand is in good shape. However,freight handling ia inefficientand suffersfrom lack of an adequateall-weather storage facility to accouodate freightcargo, which is growingrapidly (16Z in 1989 and 18S in 1990). CDB is financinga feasibilitystudy for improvementsin this area. 2.11 The airport,with a total lengthof 11,200feet and width of 130 feet, is capableof handlingall commercialaircraft including jumbo jets. It is well servedby NorthAmerican and Europeanairlines. Total air movementsin 1990 amountLito 37,700,up from 35,000in 1989. 2.12 Administrationof the airport is the responsibilityof the InternationalTransport Division within MCW. Airportoperations are generally well run and the staff of about250 is adequate. The airportgenerates various revenues,none of which is earmarked. For FY89/90(last available data) total airportrevenues amounted to about $B33 million,of which the departuretax raised$B19.1 million, landing fees $15.5million, concession fees $B4.0million and otherairline charges $B4.3 million. These revenues were substantiallyabove airportexpenditures, which amountedto $B16.4million, including $B2.2 million in capitaloutlays. E. Road Transport (a) The Network
2.13 The surfacetransport system of 1,550km of publicroads consists of sevenradial highways fsaning out from Bridgetown(Map IBRD 23663). The radial highwaysare linkedto each other by secondaryand tertiary(feeder) roads. In addition,there are some 300 km of privateroads. All of the roads in the public systemare paved but are usuallynarrow (5.5 to 7 meters)and lack sidewalks. The road network(Table 1) is classifiedinto primaryroads (381km or 25Z of the total),secondary roads (215 km or 142), local roads which feed the secondary road network(646 km or 411) and developmentroads, mainly in rural areas (308 km or 201). The roads are generallyin good condition(541). Only 11Z of the roadsare classifiedin poor condition,most of them localroads. Of the primary and seconda-ryrotad, about 60 km are classifiedin bad condition;they will be improved under the project. Trafficvolumes in and around Bridgetownare generally high, and range between5,000 and 22,000vehicles per day within the city and 3,000-20,000on main roads leadinginto the city. Trafficvolumes are drasticallyleos in rural areags,where some roads carry less than 100 vehicles a day. Traffic on some of these low-volumeroads could be satisfiedby alternative routes and this issue will be investigated by the Road Network RationalizationStudy, under the proposedproject (paras. 4.18).
(b) Road Administration
2.14 The Technical Department (TCD) of MCW, headedby the ChiefTechnical Officer (CTO)p is in charge of the design, executionand supervisionof public - 6 - works includedin KCW's capitalinvestment and recurrentprograms through four divisions:Projects, Design Services, Operations, and Mechanical(see Chart 1). The Projects Divisionis responsiblefor the implementationof road projects fundedby externalagencies. The DesignServices Division in in chargeof in- house preparationof designs for public building projects and small road projects,and biddingdocuments for procurementof civilworks. The Operations Divisionis responsiblefor constructionworks done by force-accountand road maintenanceoperatione. Finally, the MechanicalDivision operates and maintains MCW's equipmentfleet as well as the Government'sgeneral purpose vehicle fleet throughthe workshoplocated at MCW's headquarters. 2.15 Engineeringstudies for large projectsare generallyperformed by consultants,as MCW's in-housecapability is limitedto a few key professional staff. Road design standardsand technicalspecifications applied to new constructionand rehabilitationof primaryroads are appropriateand the quality of the studiesis satisfactory.However, there are no separateguidelines and standardsto dealwith the rehabilitationof secondaryand tertiaryroado, which often result in inconsistentstandards being applied for the same level of traffic. To assistMCW in correctingthis problem,the proposedRoad Network RationalizationStudy will defineappropriate standards and strategiesfor road improvementand maintenanceas a functionof trafficlevel and composition. 2.16 All major civilworks are carriedout by privatecontractors. HCW has carried out minor works using its own constructionlabor force. For instance,about 402 of all civilworks under the Bank'srecently completed Road Maintenanceand RehabilitationProject (Loan 2432-BAR)was done by force- account. Those force-accountworks suffered unnecessarydelays and cost increases.Under the retrenchmentprogram announced in September1991, MCW staff assignedto road and buildingconstruction projects has been cut from about 900 to 450 casuallaborers. The proposedproject will supportthe shift away from force-accountworks by ensuringthat all road capitalworks are carriedout by privatecontractors. Furthermore,MCW operatedin the past an asphaltplant located at Seawell; the plant was closed in 1989 and sold to a private contractor.MCW now purchasesmost of the materialsneeded for maintenanceworks from privatesuppliers. 2.17 Supervisionof major civil works contractshas been performedby consultantsunder the overallguidance and monitoringof the ProjectsDivision with the TCD. Usually,the consultantsinvolved in the preparationof the engineeringdesigns were also responsiblefor supervisingconstruction to ensure sccountability.However, quality control of engineeringmaterials has not been rigorouslyenforced and suppliersof materialshave not been requiredto conform to standardspecifications due to the limitedtesting facilities available on the island. In responseto this deficiency,MCW has equippedand strengthenedite Soils and MaterialsLaboratory through a technicalassistance and acquisition programfinanced by the first Bank project. The laboratoryis now capableof establishingstandards and certifyingthe quality of materials uced for maintenance,construction and rehabilitation.The laboratoryalso provides outsideservices for the local constructionindustry.
(c) Road Maintenance 2.18 MCW is responsiblefor road maintenance,including both rural and urban roads,through the OperationsDivision within TCD. The overallbudget for - 7 - maintenancehas been generallyin linewith requirements.However, operational efficiencyhas remainedlow becauseof over-staffingand improperpreparation of maintenancebudgets and allocationof rescurces.Past maintenancebudgets have reflectedthis significantresource imbalance:an average of 732 has been allocatedto labor,202 to materialsand 7Z to equipment,while best practice elsewhereindicates that labor shouldaccount for less than 502 of the total. Until mid-1991MCW had employedon averagesome 1,4OO employeesunder the casual labor regime,who were assignedto maintenanceoperations. In reality,only about 60% were necessaryto carry out this programand the rest were partially used to ca. out capitalworks. This situationhas beer correctedrecently under the retrenchmentprogram, by which maintenanceoperatl - casuallabor has been reducedto about 780 laborers. Savingsexpected t1 ,h such reduction amountto aboutUS$4 millionequivalent on an annualbasis. To avoidrepetition of past overstaffing,agreement was reachedduring negotiations that total staff assignedto road maintenancewill not exceed800 employees. 2.19 Duringproject preparation, MCW, with the assistanceof consultants and IBRD staff, has developeda Four-YearMaintenance Plan for the period FY92/93-FY95/96(Annex 1). The plan is based on an inventoryof the road network,which includedthe specificcondition of every featureof each road link. Taking into accountsuch conditions,and using agreedperformance and productivitystandards, a performancebudget was prepared. This budget is divided into routine a~ndperiodic maintenance activities, showing for each activitythe amountof work that is plannedand expectedto be performedand the resultingcost divided among materials,labor and equipment. The plan also yields the total staffingrequirements in each labor category,the numberof units of each equipmenttype and the requiredquantities of all materials.
2.20 The maintenanceplan for the entirenetwork for FY92/93is givenin Tables6-8. The plan providesfor an adequatelevel of fundingaccording to the existingneeds, a well balanced distributionbetween routine and periodic maintenance,and an increasedparticipation by privatecontractors. The total budgetfor FY92/93,which takes intoaccount the recentstaff reductionsin MCW, amountsto US$10.4million equivalent, compared with about US$15.2equivalent originallybudgeted for FY91/92. For FY93/94the budget increasesto US$13.1 million,reflecting the start of overlayworks under the project. Of the total amount,about 332 will be carriedout by contract,mostly for periodicoverlay worksbut also for a pilot programof routinemaintenance by contract.The total staff necessaryto carry out the plan is about 750, in linewith the available manpower. MCW has alreadypF-pared a satisfactoryassignment schedule for all road maintenancestaff. Agr mAentwas reachedduring negotiations that MCW will implementthe Four-Year(1992/93-1995/96) Road MaintenancePlan as agreedwith the Bank. 2.21 Of the total maintenancebudget of US$13.1million for FY93/94, US$4.2million equivalent are for overlayworks whichwill be coveredunder the proposedproject; hence, the minimum requiredfor the maintenancebudget is US$8.9million equivalent, of which US$3.0million represent materials, US$4.0 millionrepresent labor and US$1.9is the cost of the equipmentoperation. The provisionby the Governmentto MCW of an annualallocation of US$3.0 million equivalentfor materialsconstitutes a conditionof the proposed project. Agreementwas also reachedthat, by December31 of each year,MCW will submitan updateof the Four-YearRoad Maintenance Plan, Includingthe amountallocated for the currentyear and that plannedfor the followingthree years, and thatby June 30 of each year MCW will informthe Bank of the amount actuallyspent in the preceding year and that allocated for the current fiscal year.
2.22 To carny out the Four-Year Road Maintenance Plan, MCW needs to implementappropriate field work schedulingand feedbackreporting procedures, and improve resource usage and crew productivity. The road maintenance managementsystem initiated under the on-goingBank projecthas not yet been installedin the field. czoently,a "PilotDepot" was selectedfor the purpose of implementingsuch proceduresand testing them by the field crews. The proposedproject will assistMCW in implementingthe roadmaintenance management system throughoutall districtsand denotsby providingfollow-up technical assistancein road maintenanceoperations and a trainingprogram to instruct maintenancestaff in the new procedures. 2.23 Organizationally,the responsibilityfor road maintenance operations is divided between three units: the districts,who are in charge of road maintenanceworks, the MaintenanceManagement Unit (MMU),which is responsible for maintenanceplanning and monitoring, and the EquipmentManagement Unit, which is responsiblefor equipmentoperation. The first two units are under the OperationsDivision, whereas the third operatesunder the MechanicalDivision (Workshop).While the organizationalstructure of all units is adequate,one weaknesshas been the lack of coordinationin the assignmentof equipmentunits to maintenanceoperations. The OperationsDivision has littleinput into how the equipmentfleet is assignedto the districtsand how the preventivemaintenance is carriedout. Currently,equipment and vehicles are removedfrom operationfor maintenanceservicing by the MechanicalDivision, are not replaced with substituteunits, and then held out of servicefor extensiveperiods of time, often for repairs that have to wait for spare parts. Two factors have contributedlargely to this problem: the absence of an annual equipment servicingprogram, and the lack of an adequatestock of spare parts. The proposedproject will assistMCW in overcomingthese problems by financingthe purchaseof a stockof spareparts, updating road maintenance plans and providing a second-phasetechnical assistance program geared at the workshoplevel. To facilitatethe implementationof the equipmentmanagement system, the appointment of an equipmentmanager and a workshopaccountant are conditionsof effectiveness of the proposedloan. Furthermore,coordination among organizational units will beoimproved through a Technical Committee (TC); th's committeewas created recently to periodicallyreview the road maintenanceprogram and the equipment needsoriginating from this program,and ensurecoordination with the workshop. (d) Road ConstructionIndustrv
2.24 There are three major companiesin Barbadoswith a construction capacityover US$5 million,which own and operateall asphaltplants on the island. Three othersmaller enterprises provide some pavingservices, although they dependon the large companiesfor the provisionof asphaltmixes. Small jobs are often carriedout by sub-contractors;there is a largenumber of small firms specializedin concreteworks. In addition,there is a well developed marketfor equipmentrentals. The road constructionsector is adequatefor the needs of the countryand operateswithout interference from the Government. 2.25 Road constructioncosts are relativelyhigh. Highwages, dependance on importedgoods, and the small size of the market explainthese high costs. Foreign firms,predominantly regional, have shown some interest,but only in -9 -
mediumand largeroad construction jobs. Legislationfor contractadministration end other legal aspects,such as taxation,employment and importationregimes, is appropriate. In particular,to encourageparticipation of foreignfirms, heavy construction equipmentused in road constructionprojects financed by multilateral agencies can be imported duty-free on a temporary basis, provided it is eithertaken out of the countryat the end of the contract,or officially importedthen by payinga reducedtax. (e) VehicleFleet 2.26 The island'spoeulation is highly motorized with approximately49,000 motor vehiclesregiatered in 1990, or about 190 vehiclesper 1,000 population (Table 9). This comparesvith about 100 vehiclesper 1,000 populationin neighboringSt. Lucia. The vehiclefleet has been growingat a 4-SZ annual rate in recentyears. Most of the fleet is light vehicles,and trucksnumber only about 2,000 or about 4Z of the total fleet. The low percentageof trucks resultsin generallylow deteriorationof road pavements.Among trucks,most are small;there are only a few (76) articulatedtrucks. (f) Axle Load Reaulation 2.27 Axle loads are regulatedby the Road TrafficAct of 1985. This Act sets the maximumgross weight of trucksat 7.7 tons for 2-axletrucks with 2 tires,13.2 tons for 2-axletrucks with dual tiresat the rear axle and 26.5 tons for other trucks. These limitsare satisfactory. All trucksars requiredto post theirnet and grossweight limit alongside. The LicensingAuthority within MCW is responsiblefor enforcementof regulationthrough its specialinspectors. Weighingof vehiclesis done eitherat the LicensingAuthority headquarters in Bridgetownor through an existing arrangementwith four sugar factories throughoutthe island. Penaltiesfor overloadingare steep (up to B$5,000in fines or twe::e-h imprisonment).In general,however, overloading is not commonin Barbados. In exceptionalcases the LicensingAuthority is empowered to issuespecial permits for trucksto haul loadsIn excessof regulatorylimits on specifictrips along a specificroute. The LicensingAuthority also has the right to refuserenewal of a road licenseor specialpermit if the vehicle is judgedlikely to causedamage to the road. To ensurecompliance with regulation, the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Commerce is required to refer all applicationsfor importationof vehiclesexceeding 7.7 tons to the Licensing Authorityto ensurethat they complywith the provisionsof the Road TraffficAct (g) TruckintIndustry
2.28 The total trnckingfleet in Barbadosis about 2,000,mostly light trucks The industryis fragmentedand consistsmainly of individual operators and companiesowning their own trucks. The largestroad haulagecompany owns about sixty trucks and the secondlargest, about fifteen. The industryIs very competitive and freight rates are determined by the truckers without any Governmentinterference. (h) PassengerTransnort Ind the Role of the TransoortBoard
2.29 The transportof passengersis sharedby the privateand the public sectors. The privatesector operates minibuses (carrying 33 passengers)and maxi-taxis(carrying 10 passengers)in additionto regulartaxis. There are 195 - 10 -
registeredminibuses (of which 137 are non-owner driven) and 174 maxi-taxis, in addition to about 1,200 taxis. The issuance of permits for operation of minibuses and maxi-taxis has been suspendedsince 1984, and those for taxis since 1989, because of complaints by existing owners of the rapid proliferation of licenses. MCW assigns routes to minibuses, generally along dense traffic corridors in and out of Bridgetown. The maxi-taxis, which are supposed to operate as a one-party transportvehicles, have in fact been operating as mini- buses by collectingpassengers along city routes. About 330 five-passengervans, which are registeredas regular taxis, have also been collectingpassengers along the routes, in contraventionof their permits. Both maxi-taxis and small vans have been operatingwherever they chose. The Government passed recently a law aimed at regularizing the services of both types of vehicles along assigned routes, while increasing substantiallytheir permit fees.
2.30 The public sector operates its own passenger transport entity, the TransportBoard (TRB), in competitionwith minibusesand maxi-taxis. TRBI'sfleet consists of 180 buses, of which only 80Z are in service. TRB employs about 1,200 people, of which about 800 are drivers or conductors (about equally divided). It operares according to a published route and time schedule,and, by Government instruction, has to service also routes to rural areas which are clearly unprofitable. The passenger fare is determinedby the Government and does not vary with distance. Discounts are mandated for students and senior citizens. The fare was raised by 50% in September 1991 to $B1.50 (US$0.75)per trip. The minibuses charge the same fares as TRB, but are not required to provide the discountedfares.
2.31 Ridershipon TRB's buses has declined sharply in the early 1980's (by about one third between 1980 and 1984), reflecting the introductionof minibus service and the higher level of motorization. Since 1984, the decline has been more orderly, about 2-3% p.a. Total ridership in 1989 amounted to 26 million; of the total, about 70% were full-fare passengers,20% studentswho enjoy a 50% discount, and the rest free-ridingpassengers. Total revenues generated in FY90 were about $B25.8 million, down from $B27.3million in 1989, and in line with the decline in ridership.
2.32 TRB has suffered losses in its operations since 1976 and has relied on Government support to conduct its operations. The subsidy peaked in FY87/88 at a level of $B22 million. Government subsidiesfor operations in both FY90/91 and FY91/92 were about $B10 million. In addition, the Government financed capital expenditures (mainly for purchase of buses) totalling $B6.7 million in 1990-91 and $B2.3 million in FY91/92. As the above figures demonstrate, the financialburden on the Government is substantial,both in absolute terms and as a percentage of total expenditures(over 1% of total public sector expenditures). The actual cash deficit for TRB was about $B5 million higher than the subsidy level and was financed mainly by deferring payments to the National Insurance Board.
2.33 There are several reasons for the poor performance of the Transport Board, most importantof which are internal inefficiencies. For instance, each bus is carrying a driver and a conductor (fare-collector). The salary for all conductorsalone amounts to stme $B6.5 million. On most routes, the installation of a fare collection box could substitute the need for a conductor, and the proposed project includesfinancing for purchase of the fare-boxes. However, the potential release of all conductorshas been a source of continuous labor union - 11 -
conflicts,although 230 positionswere eliminated as of April 1992 in agreement with the union. Other factors contributing to TRB's losses are inefficient maintenance facilities,deficient bus schedules, a requirement to serve remote areas at a frequencywhich makes the service a money-losingproposition, and a uniform fare which makes it impossibleto recover the cost of longer bus routes.
2.34 The Transport Board was the subject of a consultant study in 1984 as well as numerous Government committees. Unfortunately,the focus of these examinationswas on marginal improvementsin operations and schedulingwithout facing the major issue of whether, and to what extent, the public sector should be involved in passenger transport. The Government has now drafted, with Bank assistance, terms of reference for a study to be financed by the European DevelopmentFund, which will develop an action plan to reduce the public sector role in the transport of passengers (Annex 2). The main options to be examined by the study are: (a) a substantialreduction in TRB services limiting them to serving non-economic routes under a specific Government subsidy; and (b)- eliminationof the TRB altogetherwith the money-losingroutes to be transferred to the private sector under a specific subsidy arrangement. The contract for the TRB study is expected to be awarded by September 1992 with final recommendations by June 1993. Pending completion of the study, the Government submitted during negotiations a detailed plan involving a reduction of total staff from the present level of over 1200 to 740 by September 1992, thus completing the conversion to a one-person bus operation. As a result, the cash deficit for FY92/93 will be reduced to about $B4 million. Agreement was reached during negotiationsthat the Governmentwill carry out this plan. Furthermore,by July 31, 1993, the Governmentwill submit to the Bank an acceptabletime-phased action plan based on the results of the Transport Board Study, aiming at reducing to a minimum the public sector involvementin passenger transport. Progress on this action plan will constituteone of the main issues to be reviewed during the Mid- Term Project Review in the first quarter of 1994 (para. 5.20). Disbursements against overlay works in FY94/95 and beyond will not be approved by the Bank unless the mid-term review determines that there is a satisfactoryprogress on the agreed action plan (para. 4.20).
Mi) Hiahway Planning
2.35 As part of the conditionalityof the (first) Road Maintenance and RehabilitationProject, MCW created a Planning Unit (PU) and staffed it with two qualified officers. These officers have attended overseas courses in transport planning and received additional training in the context of the technical assistancein project preparationprovided under the loan. However, most project investmentdecisions have been taken by TCD without sufficientconsultations with the PU. At the same time, a MaintenanceManagement Unit (MMU) was created within the TCD to prepare a road inventory and plah maintenance activities. As the focus of MCW's capital budget is changing from new investment projects to appropriate maintenance policies, the importance of the MHU in the planning process will become more and more pronounced. Given this change in focus, and to improve coordination between the two units, agreement was reached during negotiationsthat the PlanningUnit be incorporatedinto the TechnicalDepartment by December 31, 1992. The upcoming technical assistance will include training for both the PU and the MMU staff in investment and maintenance planning, especially in the use of the Highway Design and MaintenanceModel, developedby the Bank and now commonly used for design of road maintenance strategies. - 12 -
(j) Fuel Priceoand Other User Charao. 2.36 Fuel prices in Barbadosare highs gasolineis pricedat $B1.38per liter (equivalentto US$2.62per US gallon)and diesel at $B1.22 per liter (US$2.32 per gallon). The CIF cost of the productsper gallonwere (as of end- 1991) US$0.74and US$0.65,respectively. The structureof gasolineand diesel pricesis given in Table 10. With the consumptiontax at US$1.36per gallonfor gasolineand US$1.23for diesel,the revenuescollected are substantialt$B61 million in 1990 and an estimated$B77 million in 1991 (Table11). The 1991 figure is itselfmore than the total budgetaryallocation in FY91/92for road maintenance($B22 million)and capitalexpenditures ($B26 million). As the numbersabove indicate,there is also no distortionin the relativepricing of diesel and gasoline. 2.37 The cost of registrationfees and operatingpermits are also high. Privatecars and vans pay an annualfee of $B265-350depending on weight;light trucks $B800; medium trucks $B2,500;and heavy trucks $B5,000. Passenger transport vehicles also pay large fees: minibuses pay an initial permit of $B7,500, and annual fees of $B2,500-3,000; tour operators' vehicles pay an initialfee of $B15,000and annualfee of $B6,000;taxis pay $B1,250for a permit and $B250-400in annualfees; maxi-taxis $B12,500 and $B600;hire cars $B2,500 and $B800; and transportbuses $B800-1,600.As a result,registration fees generatesubstantial revenues: $B16 million in FY90/91and an estimated$B17 millionin FY91/92,a very largeamount in relation to the cost of rehabilitation and maintenanceof the road system. Other chargeson road users includevehicle inspectionfees, drivingtests and licenses,special permits, etc. These fees generated an additional $B6 million in revenues in both FY90/91 and FY91/92. 2.38 Importduties, stamp duty and consumptiontax generatesubstantial additionalrevenues from roadusers. Cars,pick-ups and vans have a duty of 45Z, a consumptiontax of 63-83Z(depending on the value of the vehicle),a stampduty of 201 and a recently imposed luxury surcharge of 2021 Buses and trucks have essentiallythe same set of charges,except that import duty is only 101. Revenuesgenerated by these taxes yieldedover $B36 million in 1988 and an estimated$B37.5 million for 1989, the last year for which actual data are available. The additionalluxury tax of 201 may or may not generateadditional net revenues,since the Governmenthopes that it would have the effect of dampeningdemand and reducingtotal importsof vehicles. 2.39 User chargesand costs are presentedin Table Q2 for the period 1986/87-1990/91and an estimateis providedfor 1991/92. As can be seen from the table,user chargeshave substantiallyexceeded the sum of both roadmaintenance and investmentcosts for each year. For FY91/92,total revenuesare over twice the total road costs. User charges are also adequate in terms of their distributionamong vehicle types. A calculationwas made (Table13) for revenues generatedby buses and trucks on a 1,000 vehicle-per-dayroad based on the averagevehicle distribution within the country. The table showsthat busesand trucksalon generatemore than sufficientrevenues to coverthe maintenance cost of the roads. Therefore,no furtheraction is requiredwith regard to user chargespolicy in Barbadosin terms of its overalllevel or the distributional effectamong vehicletypes. - 13 -
(k) Hishway Financing
2.40 Funds for highwayconstruction and maintenanceare providedby the Governmentfrom generalbudget revenuesafter approvalby the Cabinetand the Parliament. None of the regularuser charges is earmarkedfor highway financing. However,in 1982 a TransportLevy Fund (TLF)was createdto defraythe cost of improvementof publictransport and the constructionand maintenanceof public roads. It is fundedby a chargeagainst earnings of every employedperson (1.75Z of salary chargedto employeesand 0.25Z to employerson all salariesup to $B2,600per month). Total revenuesgenerated by the TLF in PY89/90were about $B27 millionand a similaramount is expectedto be generatedin FY91/92. Most of the funds generatedby the TLF have, until recently,been used for subsidizing the public transport system, with the rest assigned for construction and improvementof developmentalroads. The TLF is a purely fiscal instrument--not a user charge-- because it is levied on earnings and is not related to the use of road infrastructure. Its significance in terms of the budget is that its resources can not be used for other purposes. Given the expected eliminationof Government subsidies to the TRB beyond FY92/93 and the substantialreduction in coming years in road investmentsto be financed wholly by the Government (only about $B7 million in FY94/95), the Transport Levy Act should be amended so as to permit its use for general Government revenues or phased out totally. The Government plans to phase out this tax as part of its overall tax reform which is being developed in cooperationwith the IMF. Agreement was reached during negotiations that the Governmentwill submit to Parliament an amendment to the Transport Levy Act, or abolish it, no later than March 31, 1994.
III. PAST BANK EXPERIENCEIN THE SECTOR
3.1 The Bank has had only one operation in the road sector: the Road Rehabilitation and Maintenance Project, Loan 2432-BAR (US$11.0 million equivalent). It was signed in June 1984 and became effective in November of the same year. The project financed reconstruction of about 31 km of roads, improvement of some road intersections and a technical assistance and institutional building program in the areas of road traffic, workshops, laboratory research, road maintenance and overall planning. The loan closed on December 31, 1991. 3.2 The experience with project implementation has been reasonably good. All road civil works were substantiallycompleted by end-1989, about one year beyond the original closing date. The works have been completed to the desired standard. The only major setbackwas the misprocurementdeclared on the contract for rehabilitationof a section of Highway 2A (from Mile & a Quarter to Highway IA) when MCW reversed a prior decision and awarded the contract, unjustifiably in the Bank's opinion, to a bidder who did not submit the lowest evaluated bid. The Bank subsequently canceled the amount of the loan allocated to Highway 2A (US$2.5 million) and the loan was reduced to US$8.5 million.
3.3 During appraisalof the first projact, the Bank agreed that up to 502 of all road civil works, mostly smaller works, could be carried out by force- account. This was done in recognitionof the available manpower within MCW and taking into account the high mobilization cost by private contractors. The experience with force-accountwork has been satisfactory in terms of quality. - 14 -
However, these works tended to coot more and to take longer than expected. In fact, only force-accountworks remained incompleteby the original closing date of the loan. There is presently no further justificationfor MCW to carry out any force-account capital works, especially given the recent cuts in MCW personnel, which have left just enough staff to carry out the required maintenance work. This change is reflected in the content and design of the proposed project.
3.4 In terms of institutionbuilding, the first projectbrought about the establishment of the Traffic Divisior headed by a qualified overseas-trained officer. MCW also formed the Planning Unit (para 2.35), created the position of an Internal Auditor and established the Integrated Financial Accounting System (IhAS), responsible for monitoring and processing project expenditures. Furthermore, with technical assistance provided by the US Department of Transportation, and financing under the loan, MCW established and equipped a Soils and Materials Laboratory,which is now playing an importantrole in setting engineeringspecifications, reviewing project design and supervisingthe quality of materials used in all civil works.
3.5 The one drawback in achieving the full objectives of the technical assistanceprogram was its late start. Only in 1988 did MCW sign a contract with the US Departmentof Transportationto provide technicalassistance in the areas of equipment, road zaintenance,soils laboratory and traffic management. Both soils laboratory and traffic management experts have fully completed their assignments,having achieved all their objectives. The Traffic Division,which is responsiblefor improvingvehicle and pedestriantraffic flows and increasing road safety, is functioningsmoothly and traffic counts are available throughout the road network. The soils laboratory is responding to all MCW needs as well as providing services to outside parties. However, in the areas of road maintenance, equipment and workshops, the objectives were only partially met. A new equipment maintenance system was designed by the consultants, but the protracted review of the system by the committeeestablished for that purpose by MCW, did not leave sufficient time for the computerization and implementation stage. In terms of road maintenance, a road inventory was prepared, quantity standardsdeveloped, individual maintenance activities costed, and a computerized maintenanceprogram prepared. Again, the system did not enter the implementation and monitoring stage. The implementationof both systemswill be financed by the proposed project. Finally, while the project accounting system has been computerized,the task of computerizingthe accounting system of the MCW as a whole did not take place because of the delays in implementing the road maintenance and the equipment management systems. This task will also be included under the proposed project.
IV. THE PROJECT
A. Justification
4.1 The expansion of the road network to provide all parts of Barbados with reasonable access has now been completed, with only a few links still needing rehabilitationand reconstructionwork to bring them to an acceptable standard. The Governmentstrategy now focuses on providing an adequate level of service, which requires efficient road maintenance and equipment management - 15 _ policies. Some progress in both areas was achieved under the first Road Maintenanceand RehabilitationProject (Loan 2432-BAR)and the completion of this task and the implementation of a road maintenance and equipment management systems constitute a major objective of the new project. The implementationof the two systems will be assisted by outside consultants,and will benefit from the Bank's presence and monitoring.
4.2 Severe shortageof foreignexchange and rapid loss of competitiveness by Barbados' tourism, industriesand agricultureled to the February 1992 stand- by agreement with the IMP. The agreed program calls for drastic cuts in the level of investmentsand current expenditures,which have severely affectedMCW: its personnel has been cut from 2,500 to about 1,300 and maintenance staff from 1,400 to under 800. The level of investmentof MCW for FY91/92 has been reduced from about $B40 million to about $B30 million (of which about $B26 million is for the road sector) and this reduced level will have to be maintained for the following fiscal year. All these measures bring to the fore the need to increase the efficiency of available resources and define properly the level of service and size of the road network. The proposed project allows the GOB to carry out the required periodic maintenance and rehabilitationworks while adapting to reduced levels of investment and staff. The emphasis on periodic maintenance will maximize savings in vehicle operating costs, most of which are in foreign exchange.
4.3 The Bank's involvement will bring about a solution to two other inefficiencies: road maintenance strategies that do not vary in accordancewith traffic level and Transport Board operations which continue to incur heavy financial losses. The proposed project includes a study of the size of the network and agreement on optimal maintenance policies for the remaining roads based on their condition and traffic levels. Second, the Bank's participation in the projectwill allow monitoring of an action plan to reduce to a minimum the Government's subsidy for passenger transport and transfer most or all of the functionsof the publicly-ownedTransport Board to the private sector. Finally, the project will result in better planning procedures through the introduction of a new computerizedaccounting system, and regular updating of the Five-Year Investment Plan and the Four-Year Road Maintenance Plan.
B. Proiect Obiectives
4.4 The objectives of the proposed project are to:
(a) preserve the capital base of road infrastructure within the constraints on capital and current expenditures;
(b) improve road maintenance planning and practices;
*(c) reduce investment costs through the transfer of all capitalworks to the private sector and explore the feasibility of private sector participation in routine maintenance;
(d) improve road safety; and
(e) help the Government in its efforts to privatize passenger transport services. - 16 -
C. ProiectDescrintion (a) General 4.5 MCW has preparedan acceptableFive-Year 1992/93-1996/97 Investment Plan (Table14) designedto derivemaximum benefits from the limitedresources availablefor capitalexpendituress the planwill be updatedannually by December 31. The Bank, in parallelwith CDB, will financemost road investmentsin the period1992-96 which are includedin MCW's live-YearRoad InvestmentPlan except for the TrafficManagement Project, developed by the IDB, which is expectedto start in PY94/95. Projectappraisal has been conductedjointly with CDB and project conditionalityis similar. Given that the Bank's project is being negotiatedlater than CDB's,some additionalconditionality is incorporatedinto the Bank'sloan in the areas of roadmaintenance, road networkrationalization, privatizationof passenger transport servicas and environmentalcontrol. CDB's loan is partlyfinanced (US$7 million out of US$10 million)from the resources of the CDB V Project(Loan 3200-CRG). Disbursements of funds from the CDB loan have been made conditionalon the Bank loan becomingeffective. (b) Road Rehabilitation 4.6 The Bank will financethe rehabilitationand improvementof Highway 6 in two sections: Searlesto Six Roads (6.1km) and CollymoreRock-Villa Road (0.7km). A brief descriptionof these two sub-projectsis given in Table 15. The proposed CDB project would finance the remaining unimproved section of Highway 2A (7.7 km) and two roads which feed traffic into Highway 2A (Clermont Rd. and Canewood Rd., approximately 1.4 km and 1.3 km long, respectively). Together,these sub-projects involve about 18 km and representall rehabilitation needs of the road networkfor the foreseeablefuture, except for urban traffic managementwhich will be the targetof an IDB operation.
4.7 The rehabilitationworks financedby the Bank includerepavement, wideningof the carriagewayto 7 m, improvementof drainageand constructionof road shoulders. The sectionof CollymoreRock also includesremoval of rock which presentssafety hazards and improvingthe visibilityat two intersections which carry trafficof 21,000vehicles per day. The totalbase cost of the road rehabilitationcivil works includedin the Bank'sloan is about US$2.4million, of which the Bank will financethe estimatedforeign exchange cost of about US$1.3million (55Z of total cost). MCW has completedall engineeringstudies and the final designsfor theseworks. (c) Road Safetv
4.8 The road safety component consists of improving five road intersectionswith substantialtraffic and poor accidentrecords. The list of selectedintersections and detailson theirfeatures and proposedworks are given in Table 16. The existing designs of these intersectionsare severely restrictivein terms of capacitybecause of an inadequatenumber of lanes,snort curve radius,and poor sight distances,aggravated in some cases by obstacles that impairvisibility, such as voluminousrocks and stonewvall. Furthermore, thesenarrow roads are restrictedby heavy pedestriantraffic, which sharesthe carriagewaywith vehicletraffic due to the lack of sidewalksand shoulders.The proposedworks includeconstruction of separateturning lanes, sidewalks, some drainagework, removalof existingobstacles which affect sight distanceand - 17 - installationof trafficlights in two cases. The sub-projectsincluded under the oafetyprogram have been identifiedby MCW basedon existingtraffic and accident data, and preliminarydesigns were preparedto evaluatethe effectivenessof alternativesolutions. MCW alreadycompleted the finalengineering designs for the five sub-projects.The totalbase cost of the road safetycomponent is about US$2.1 million,of which the Bank will financeUS$1.1 million (551 of total cost). (d) OverlayProgram 4.9 One of the main objectives of the proposed project is the preservationof adequatestandards on the existingprimary and secondaryroad networks. Hence,the projectincludes a comprehensiveoverlay program to raise standardsand preventthe deteriorationof the existingnetwork. About 250 km of primaryand secondaryroads (approximately42% of the main network)are now in fair condition,and almost60 km (about10) in poor condition;a substantial portionof thisnetwork carries sufficient traffic to warrantah overlay.Timely interventionis particularlyimportant in the case of roads in fair condition, since the repairsneeded once the pavementstarts to break up are severaltimes more costly. The overlayprogram has been designedto reduce the backlog in periodicmaintenance to a level consistentwith MCW's abilityto carry out the requiredworks usingits own resources.To achievethis objectivewithin a four- year period,the overlayprogram to be financedby the Bank coversapproximately 160 km of high-priorityroads. The list of the selectedroad links includedin the proposedproject is given in Table 17. Theseworks were dividedinto four groups,each representingan annualoverlay program of 35-40km to be carriedout by contractors.To completethe program,MCW will performoverlays of about 25 km each year using its own resources;MCW's technicaland operationalcapacities are adequatefor the job.
4.10 MCW identifiedthe road links to be overlaidbased on pavement conditionsurveys, which includedmeasuring surface roughness, traffic data and economicevaluation. The distributionamong yearswas determinedon the basis of the relativeeconomic benefits of the projects. The total base cost of the overlay component is US$15.2 million, of which the Bank will finance the estimatedforeign exchange cost of about US$9.9million (651 of total cost). Agreementwas reachedduring negotiations that MCW will carry out the overlay works accordingto the list agreedwith the Bank. Furthermore,MCW will submit to the Bank the final engineeringfor the overlayworks for each fiscalyear, startingwith PY93/94,by October31 of the precedingPY. In addition,MCW will carry out overlaysof at least 25 km of roads using its own resources;by December31 of each year, startingin 1992, MCW will furnishto the Bank for approvalthe listof road linksselected for overlaythrough force-account during the followingfiscal year based on an economicstudy. At the completionof the project,virtually all primaryand secondaryroads now classifiedin fairor poor conditionwould thus have undergonerehabilitation or overlay.
(e) Bridasand CulvertRehabilitation 4.11 The proposed project includes rehabilitationof bridges and replacementof culvertswhich are in poor conditionand in risk of collapse. Theseworks are based on a surveyof the conditionof all bridgesand culverts throughoutthe primary and secondaryroad network. Three bridges have been selectedfor reconstructionbecause their structuralintegrity has worsened - 18 -
considerably. In addition, four culverts will be replaced under the proposed project due to their state of deteriorationand insufficienthydraulic capacity. Thesa works will include removal of existing structures, construction of new structuresaccording to appropriatedesign standards,repaving of short stretches and in some cases flatteningout of the road's vertical alignment. The total base cost of the bridge and culvert rehabilitationprogram has been estimatedat US$0.4 million, of which the Bank will finance US$0.2 million (55% of total cost). The list of eligible structuresto ba rehabilitatedwas agreed upon.
(f) Pilot Program: Routine Maintenance by Contract
4.12 MCW has traditionally carried out all routine maintenance work through force-account. The cost of routinemaintenance per km is about US$5,000, which, though high, is reasonablegiven the high labor costs in Barbados. The quality of force-accountmaintenance has been acceptable. However, there has never been an attempt to measure the cost and quality of force-accountroutine maintenance against similarwork carried out by the private sector. To provide a base for comparison, the project includes a two-year pilot program involving 65 km of roads whose maintenance will be carried out by a private contractor. The total cost is estimateA at US$0.6 million. Given the high cost of works carried out by the private sector in Barbados (due to the small size of the market and the limited number of local contractors), a larger commitment to privatizationof routine maintenance is not warranted at the moment. The mid- term project review will include an analysis and comparison of the relative merits of private and public sector execution of routinemaintenance. Agreement was reached during negotiation that ACW will submit by December 31, 1994 a proposed strategy for private sctor participationin routine maintenanceworks based on the pilot program for routine maintenance by contract.
(g) Equipment
4.13 MCW's road maintenancefleet is composed of 291 units, of which about 29% are more than 15 years old (Annex 1, Table 7). Of the present fleet, 72 units need minor repairs, 53 need rehabilitationor reconstruction,and 64 should be discarded. Equipment availability,currently about 60Z, has been limited in the past by the lack of timely provisionof spare parts and by the fleet's aging. MCW's workable fleet needs to be expanded and improved to enable MCW to conduct its maintenance activities in accordancewith the agreed road maintenance plan. The proposed project provides for replacement of old and costly-to-operate equipment units and rehabilitation of existing equipment where such rehabilitationis justified on economic grounds. A portion of this component is earmarked for purchase of spare parts.
4.14 A total of 112 new units, 31 major units and 81 minor units, will be acquired through the proposed project at a cost of about US$1.6 million. The list of equipment to be purchased, including some tools for MCW's workshop is given in Table 18. In addition to replacing old units, the list also includes some new equipmentwhich will be purchasedto improve the operationalefficiency of maintenance activities; among such items are weed control equipment, small dump trucks, and asphalt sprayer distributors. About 21 units less than ten years old, and 9 units between ten aradfifteen years old, will be rehabilitated in accordancewith a program prepared by MCW's workshop (Table 19). Most of the program will be carried out in MCW's workshop, which is properly equipped and staffed for this purpose. The project will finance US$0.7 million for purchase - 19 -
of spare parts needed to carry out this portion of the equipment rehabilitation program and provide for a stock of essential parts to reduce downtime during equipment servicing. Additional equipment rehabilitation will be done by contract at a total cost of about US$0.1 million. The equipment whose rehabilitationis considered too expensivewill be disposed of as a part of the program. Finally, about 150 fare-boxes,costing about US$0.2 million, will be purchasedto enable the TransportBoard to convert to a one-personbus operation.
(h) InstitutionalImDrovement
(i) General
4.15 The project includes financing of a technicalassistance program to improveworkshop operationsand implementthe road maintenancemanagement system started under the first Bank project. Also, additional assistance will be provided in devising short-term measures to reduce operational costs of the Transport Board. Furthermore,studies will be undertakento design a medium-term strategy to privatize passenger transport services, optimize maintenance policies, and mechanize the accountingsystem of MCW. A training program for MCW staff in operating areas and in investment evaluation techniques is also included, as is a retrainiug program for laid-off staff. Draft terms of reference for the technical assistance tasks and for all studies were agreed during negotiations. The institutionalimprovement program has a total estimated cost of US$2.0 million.
(ii) Technical Assistance
a. Road Maintenance and Equipment Management System
4.16 Efforts undertakento improvemaintenance management under the f Irst Bank project included 12 man-months over the period 1988-91. To date, a revised maintenance manual for field operations has been completed, a road condition inventory implemented,and a computer program establishedfor the developmentof annual road maintenance requirements. In addition, an equipment management system manual was completed late in 1988 and an inventory of MCW's equipment fleet was developed. Furthermore,MCW created the MaintenanceManagement Unit and strengthenedworkshop management. The technical assistance program to be financed by the proposed project will build on such improvementsand focus on field implementation. In particular, the consultants will assist MCW in: implementing the road maintenance work programming and reporting systems throughoutthe districtsand depots;improvirg crew productivityand work quality throughapplication of performancestandards and upgradedwork practices; setting up an accounting system capable of monitoring MCW's expendituresaccording to specific tasks, reporting actual equipment cost performance,and providing the necessary interfacebetween the existingbudgetary system and the maintenanceand equipmentmanagement systems;and introducingpolicies and proceduresto increase equipment availabilityand utilization,reduce equipment downtime, and improve spare parts management through a computerized inventory sub-system. Terms of reference for the study are given in Annex 3. The technical assistancewould be carried out over a period of two years by a road maintenance specialist (18 months), an equipment management specialist (12 months), and a cost accounting specialist (9 months). Agreement was reached during negotiations that these consultantswill be selected by December 31, 1992, and that a road maintenance system, based on their vork and acceptableto the Bank, will be in place by March - 20 - 31, 1994. In addition,a localconsultant experienced in maintenancemanagement and computersystems will be recruitedto assistthe MHU. His terms of reference are given in Annex 4. b. TransportBoard Operations
4.17 While a medium-termstrategy to privatizethe operationsof the TransportBoard is being studied,thare is a need for expert services in designingand implementingshort-term cost reductionmeasures to enablethe TRB to minimizeits losses,thus reducingthe fiscalburden on the Government.Three monthsof consultingservices will be providedto MCW and TRB under the project for this purpose. (iii)Studies
a. Road NetworkRationalization Study 4.18 As statedin para.2.1, the pavedroad networkis Barbadosis large in comparisonwith other similar countries. A substantialnumber of roads (primarilytertiary and local roads, but also a few secondaryroads) are maintainedto a paved standard,although the traffic level, as low as 100 vehiclesper day, does not seem to justifysuch a standard. Also, some roads with such low levelof trafficcan be leftunmaintained while trafficis diverted to parallelroads. An analysioshould be conductedto findout which roadscould be thus downgradedwithout high socialand economiccost. Furthermore,all paved roadshave in the past been subjectto the same routineand periodicmaintenance policy. Maintenanceactivities on each road need to be re-examinednot only in light of the physicalcondition but also in terms of traffic level and the frequencyand type of economicallyjustified maintenance policies. The proposed Road NetworkRationalization Study (Annex5) will examinewhich roads need to be leftwithout any maintenance,which onesneed to be maintainedto less thanpaved standardand what maintenanceactivitiest and in what frequency,are justified for each road in the remainingroad network. Sincethe resultsof the studywill have an impacton the Four-YearRoad MaintenancePlan, it shouldbe implemented as quickly as possible. Agreementwas reached during negotiationsthat consultantsfor the studybe selectedby December31, 1992,and that agreement on a plan of actionbased on the studyshould be reachedno laterthan December 31, 1993. b.

4.19 Most of MCW's accountingand administrativesystems are manually operated. This placesa severeburden on the productionof timelyand accurate managerialreports. MCW intendsto introducea comprehensivecomputerized system whichwill integrateall departmentsinto one informationnetwork, thus ensuring consistencyand promptnessof data, and has already prepared an elaborate documentspecifying the requirementsfor each sub-systemand their integration. However,for this exerciseto be most effective,it shouldstart about six months after the beginningof the technicalassistance for the implementationof the road maintenanceand equipmentmanagement system in orderfor the consultantsto have a lead time to preparethe data base systemin thesetwo areas. Therefore, agreement was reached during negotiations that consultants for the computerizationstudy should be selected by June 30, 1993 and that the mechanizationof MCW accountsbe completedby December31, 1994. Also, MCW has - 21 - recentlysigned a contractfor a more limitedstudy of mechanizingthe accounting systemof the unit which handlesinternationally financed projects. This study will also be financedunder the proposedproject.
c. TransaortBoard Study 4.20 As described in para. 2.34, the European DevelopmentFund has authorizedfinancing for a study of the rttionalizationmeasures and the privatizationoptions for the passengertransport services currently provided by the publicly-ownedTransport Board. The terms of referencefor the study have been reviewedby the Bank and are acceptable(Annex 2). While the Bank is not financingthe study, it will be involvedthrough the implementationof its recommendations.Agreement was reachedduring negotiations that the Government will submit,by July 31, 1993, an actionplan to substantiallyprivatize the operationsof the TransportBoard, based on the recoimmendationsof the Transport Board Study, and implementsuch action plan. Also, the project'smid-term review,to be conductedin the firstquarter of 1994,will focuson the carrying out of the agreedaction plan, and disbursementsagainst overlay works in FY94/95 and beyondwill not be approvedby the Bank unless there is a satisfactory progressin this area and the Bank has confirmedit to the Governmentin writing. (iv) Training 4.21 The proposedproject provides funds for on-sitetraining of MCW staff in various technicalareas. The programwas preparedby MCW based on the recommendationsof consultantsengaged under the first Bank-financedproject. First, short coursesand on-the-jobtraining will be providedby consultants engagedthrough the proposedtechnical assistance program and by trainingexperts hired for this purpose. Second,a local consultant,with broad experiencein MCW's maintenanceoperations, will providethe follow-uptraining needed to acquaintstaff with data sourcesand informationfeedback. Third, the Equipment ManagementDivision (workshop)will be responsiblefor managing a training programfor all driversand operators. This programwill cover such items as properequipment operation, daily inspection and servicerequirements, and safety procedures. Finally,equipment manufacturers will be requestedto provide trainingin conjunctionwith purchasesof new equipment.
4.22 The trainingprogram will also be carried out off-site through participationof MCW's key personnelin local coursesprovided by training institutionsand colleges,international seminars and conferences,overseas courses and medium-termstudy programs,etc. To supportMCW's expansionof computerization,its personnelwill be trainedin electronicdata processing. The consultantsfor the road NetworkRationalization Study will train staff of the MaintenanceManagement unit and the PlanningUnit in the use of the Highway Design and MaintenanceModel and relatedproject evaluation techniques. In addition,the projectwill financea retrainingprogram, when requirnkd,for staff laid off at MCW and the TransportBoard. The total cost of the training component,to be financedunder the project,is US$0.8million. - 22 - F. ProlectCosts and Financing
4.23 As alreadystated, the projectfinances a componentof MCW'a1992/93- 1996/97Investment Plan. The CDB project,which financesanother component (reconstructionof Highway 2A and two related roads), was appraised in coordinationwith the Bank,and includessimilar conditionality. The investment plan is detailedin Tables14 and 20 and summarizedbelow (in US$ million):

4.24 The sub-programto be financd by the Bank and CDB accounts for about 52Z of all investments in the period 1992-96. The IDB'a Traffic Management Projeet, due to start in 1994, will account for another 20X. The level of MCW's investment in FY92193, at US$12.5 million, is substantially below the actual level of FY91/92(US$15 million). It increases,however, to an average of about uS$19 million in the period 1993-969,still below the original budget for PY90/91 of about USS20 million. Furthermore, the annual Govertment of Barbados (GOB) contribution to the program is to decline over the period from US$13.2 million in FY91/92 to an average of US$9.3 million in 1992-96. The share of GOB in the total investment throughout the 1992-96 period is 522.
4.25 The financing plan for the IBRD/CDB sub-program is as follows:

4.26 The Bank will finance the foreign exchange component of the project (about 64Z)l the remainderwill be financed by GOB. The loan will finance the foreign exchange componentof the rehabilitationand oafety works (55Z), overlay program (651), and rehabilitationof equipmentby contract (60Z). The project will also finance OOZ of the imported cost of all equipment, 1OOZ of technical assistanceand overseas training and 502 of local training. The project cost by year is shown in Table 20. The costs reflect end-1991 prices. The preceding table shows total IBRD project costs by com)onent. Project cost estimates are based on: (i) up-to-date cost estimates by local consultants for all rehabilitation and safety works; (ii) preliminary engineering estimates for overlayworks; (iii) suppliers'current publishedprices for equipmentand spare parts; and (iv) prevailing fe6s for individualtechnical assistance consultants (US$12,000 per month for expatriate consultants and US$4,000 for local). Physical contingenciesare calculatedat 102 of the contract price for all civil works. These contingenciesare estimatedat US$2.1 million. Price contingencies are estimated at 52 p.a. (in US$ equivalent) for the period 1992-96 with an estimated total cost of US$4.2 million. Agreement should be reached during negotiations that MCW and the Government will earmark the counterpart funds needed for the project as follows: FY92/93 - US$0.5 m4llion; FY93/94 - US$3.2 million; FY94/95- US$2.4 million; FY95/96 - US$3.4 million; and FY96/97 - US$2.4 million.
G. Economic Evaluation
(a) Road Rehabilitation
4.27 For purposes of the economicevaluation, the road network in Barbadoe has been divided into over 130 links. Each link has been assigned a ranking from i to 5 for all major physical features (1 being the best) and then assigned an overall physical condition ranking computed as a weighted average of all features. A ranking of 1-5 was also assigned to the traffic level (1 being the lowest) and the traffic and physical condition ranking were combined into one overall ranking. This made it possible to screen relatively fast all road links and identify those in bad conditionwith a high level of traffic. Such roads were most likely to yield the highest rate of return on rehabilitationworks.
4.28 Preliminary engineeringstudies were prepared for the fifteen roads which showed the highest priority in the preselectionprocess. These roads were analyzed using the Highway Design and MaintenanceModel developedby the Bank to find out whether rehabilitationwas justified. All but one section showed acceptable rates of return (182 to over 1002). However, most of the roads proposed for rehabilitation showed a similar level of benefits for a substantially lesser investment consisting mainly of an overlay, which allows cost savings on realignment,drainage works and sidewalk constructionwhere such works are not considered essential. After further screening incorporatingthis option, only five road sections totalling about 18 km were finally selected for full rehabilitation: Highway 2A and two roads leading to it (CanewoodRoad and Clermont Road) totalling 10.4 km, to be financed by CDB, and two sections of Highway 6, totalling 6.8 km, to be financed by the Bank.
4.29 Highway 2A from Warrans to Lancaster, to be financed by the CDB, connects the airport road (known as the ABC highway) with the northern parishes of Barbados. It serves agricultural(sugar), commercial and tourism purposes. This work will complete the rehabilitationof Highway 2A, of which 6.2 km, from - 25 - Laneasterto Mile and a Quarter,were rehabilitated with Government funds between July 1988 and September 1991. The proposed rehabilitationwill reduce vehicle operatingcosts (averagedaily trafficis 2,000-8,000 vehicle per day) and allow diversion and time savingsfor vehiclespresently using the congested,parallel, two-lane Highway 1, where volumes exceed 20,000 vehicles per day in its approachesto the Bridgetown area. The economic return on the rehabilitation of Highway2A and its two accessroads, estimated to cost US$10.5million excluding contingencies (US$1.0 million per km), is about 17Z. 4.30 The Bank will finance the rehabilitation of two sections of Highway 6 leading from Bridgetownto the sooth-easternpart of Barbados. The rehabilitationcost is B$4.9million (US$360,000 per km). Trafficon the road varies from over 20,000vehicles per day in the CollymoreRock sectionnear Bridgetownto a range of 1000-2000in the Searles-SixRoads section. The proposedrehabilitation works will improveroad roughness,horizontal curvature, visibility,drainage and pedestriansafety. In tha economicanalysis, the HDM model simulatedthe road conditionand vehicleoperation costs in the "with" scenario(rehabilitation work carriedout) and the "without"case consistingonly of routinemaintenance and road patching. The rate of economicreturn is over 901 on the high-trafficsection close to Bridgetowrand 201 in the Searles-Six Roads section;the weightedrate of returnis about281. If rehabilitationcost increasesby 15Z, the return on the two road sectionswill be 80S and 181, respectively.The first-yearreturn on the road sectionwhich has the lowest returnis still 15.51,well above the opportunitycost of capital. It shouldbe notedthat the abovereturns exclude benefits related to the safetyfactor, thus underestimatingthe full economicimpact of the rehabilitationwork. (b) OverlayProgram
4.31 The primaryand secondaryroad networkswere subjectto an economic analysis which determined the priority of an overlay program for all roads in thesenetworks which are now classifiedin poor or fair condition.The analysis, usingthe 0DM model,compared the benefitsto be derivedfrom an overlay(costing about US$90,000per km) with those of only routine maintenance(priced at US$5,200per km) and patching (US$25.50per sq.m.). The cut-offpoint for inclusionof roadsin the programwas an economicreturn of 201. About 160 km of high-priorityroads qualified utder this criterion,with returnsranging from 201 to well over 1001 (see detailsin Table 17). The weightedreturn on all roads in this programis 581. The projectswere arrangedin descendingorder accordingto their returnon investmentand dividedinto four annual overlay packageswith projectswith the highestreturn in the firstyear, and thosewith the lowestreturn in the last year. It shouldbe noted that since the projects carriedout in the last year will show furtherdeterioration beyond today's conditionby the time an overlayis carriedout, the actualreturn on the overlay programwill be higher than the above-mentionedreturns. 4.32 The cost of overlayworks can be eatimatedwith a high degree of accuracy because engineeringdesigns are simple, and underestimationof quantitiesis not likely. Nevertheless,a sensitivityanalysis was conductedfor the economicreturns on the overlayprojects assuming that investmentcosts increaseby 151. Under this condition,and takingonly today'sroad condition into account,no sub-projectshows a returnof less than 151. - 26 -
(c) Safety Proaram
4.33 The loan will financethe improvementof five road intersectionswith poor accident records. The proposed works will improve visibility, add turning lanes and construct sidewalks. The economic benefits from the program will include savings in human lives, injuries and damage to property, as well as time savings because of tne reduced road congestion. The economic benefits from reduction in injuries and deaths were based on data supplied by insurance companies and hospitals. As such, they underestimatereal benefits because they do not take fully into account the lost productivity. Time savingswhich entered into the calculationrelated only to work-relatedtrips. The resulting returns, which also exclude environmentalbenefits from the reduced congestion, varied from 142 to 19Z with a weighted average of 171.
V. PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION
A. Proiect Execution
(a) General
5.1 The proposed loan would be made to the Ministry of Public Works, Communicationsand Transportation(MCW), which will carry out the project through its Technical Department. Highway and bridge rehabilitation,overlay works and the safety program will be carried out by private contractors under the supervision of the Projects Division within the Technical Department. The Workshop Manager will be responsiblefor carrying out the equipmentpurchase and rehabilitationprogram and the technical assistance will be supervised by the Chief Technical Officer, Workshop Manager and Chief Financial Officer in the areas of road maintenance,workshop, and accounting oystem, respectively. The studies on Transport Board Operation and Road Network Rationalizationwill be monitored by the Chief Planning Officer under the overall supervision of the Permanent Secretary. The purchase of fare-boxes and employment of a short-term consultant on cost reductionmeasures for the Transport Board will be done under the supervisionof the Permanent Secretary. The Project Coordinator (para. 5.3) will be responsible for putting together all training proposals to be financed by the project.
5.2 Final engineering studies have been completed for the road rehabilitation works, bridges and safety works. By negotiations, final engineering should be available for the first-year overlay works. The engineeringstudies were carried out through a combined effort of consultantsand the Project Design Division within the TechnicalDepartment. This mechanism for projectpreparation operated under the first project and has resulted in reliable designs and cost estimates. Agreement should be reached during negotiationsthat final designs for overlayworks in each fiscal year (startingwith FY93/94) will be sent to the Bank by October 31 of the preceding fiscal year.
(b) Proiect Coordination
5.3 One area which has been relktivelyweak during execution of the on- going operationhas been day-to-daymonitoring of the progress of the project and - 27 -
coordinationamong the various organizationalunits which shared responsibility for its implementation. Therefore, before negotiations, MCW will nominate a qualified candidateacceptable to the Bank to serve as Project Coordinator. The Project Coordinator will be responsible for preparing the quarterly progress reports, advising management of any issue which may affect project implementation,organizing monthly meetings of all units concernedwith project execution, resolving issues with contractorsand suppliers,overviewing project accounting,monitoring submissions of disbursementapplications, and processing and reviewing training proposals.
(c) Road Maintenance
5.4 While the project does not finance routine road maintenance, implementation of a medium-term viable maintenance plan is one of the cornerstones of the project. Also, the project's equipment component was designed in accordancewith the annual maintenancerequirements. The Four-Year Road Maintenance Plan for 1992/93-1995/96has already been prepared by the Maintenance ManagementUnit (MMU)with assistanceof consultantsand Bank staff and was agreed during negotiations. The plan is based on the private sector assuming about 60% of all periodic maintenanceworks and carrying out the pilot program of routine maintenance by contract. The MMU will continue to be responsiblefor updating the Four-YearRoad MaintenancePlan and will be assisted in this task by consultants under the technical assistance program. The execution of the plan will be the responsibilityof the Chief Technical Officer.
B. Procurement
5.5 All civil works contracts exceeding US$1.5 million will be subject to internationalcompetitive bidding (ICB) in accordancewith Bank guidelines. The threshold for ICB was determined based on the experience with the recent Bank loan. The proposed project includes five main contractswhich fall under ICB: (a) rehabilitationof Highway 6 from Searles to Six Roads; and (b) four overlay contracts each covering an annual overlay program. The estimated base cost of the contracts varies between US$2.1 million and US$4.8 million. Contracts for civil works costing below US$1.5 million will be subject to local competitive bidding (LCB) in accordancewith local procedureswhich are acceptable to the Bank. This will include rehabilitationof the CollymoreRock section of Highway 6, rehabilitationof all bridges and culverts, the road safety program and the pilot program for routine maintenance by contract. The civil works for the safety programwill be divided into five contraetseach covering one intersection (base cost varying from US$0.2 million to US$0.8 million). Bridge and culvert works (totallingUS$0.4 million)will be contractedin three packages. The total cost of LCB works is US$4.3 million. The appraisal mission reviewed LCB procedures and found them acceptable. In particular, the procedures allow bidding by foreign contractors.
5.6 The estimated cost of individual contractsis shown in Table 20. In line with para. 4 of Appendix 1 of the Bank's procurement guidelines,MCW will inform the Bank and obtain its approval before agreeing to any change in any contract which will raise its cost by more than 202 over the original contract price. Agreement on the 20% threshold should be reached during negotiations. In addition, disbursements against the contracts for the overlay program in FY94/95and beyond will be subjectto satisfactoryprogress on the implementation of the action plan for the Transport Board (para. 2.34 and 4.20). - 28 - 5.7 Equipmentwill be procuredunder ICB, except for items not exceeding US$25,000and totallingno moro than US$400,000,which will be procuredusing shoppingon the basis of comparisonof price quotationsfrom at least three suppliers. Purchase of fare-boxes (US$200,000)and the contract for rehabilitationof equipment(US$100,000) will alsobe doneby shoppingamong the limited suppliers(due to equipmentspecificity) and establishedworkshops, respectively.Under ICB, suppliersfrom CARICOMcountries, including Barbados, will be givena marginof preference,in accordancewith Bank guidelines.
5.8 All contractsfor civilworks exceeding US$500,000, all contractsfor procurementof equipmentunder ICB and the contractfor equipmentrehabilitation will be subjectto priorreview by the Bank. Thus,prior review will involve90Z of civilworks and about852 of all equipment.Since the rest of the equipment is mostly spareparts, this percentageis satisfactory.Prior reviewwill not cause any delays becauseMCW alreadyuses the Bank's sampledocuments as its standardbidding documents for procurementof goodsand works. The use of these documentswill be confirmedduring negotiations.
5.9 Consultant services for technical assistance and studies will be contractedin accordancewith Bank guidelinesand termsof referenceagreed with the Bank. All contractsfor consultantswhich exceed US$50,000(902 of the total)will be subjectto prior review. Contractsbelow this limitwill be subjectto post-reviewon a selectedbasis. A standardletter of invitationfor consultantsand a standardform of a consultant'scontract, acceptable to the Bank, are alreadyin use by MCW and will be confirmedduring negotiations.
5 10 The following table shows the distribution of the type of procurement appropriate for the acquisitionof works, goods and services under the project.

C. Disbursements
5.11 Disbursementswill be made against the followingcategories of eligibleexpenditures: (a) 55Z of totalexpenditures for road rehabilitation, - 29 -
safety work. and bridge and culvert rehabilitation; (b) 65Z of the total expenditureson road overlays (80Z until disbursementsreach US$7.4 million and 501 thereafter);(c) 602 of the cost of equipmentrehabilitation by contract; (d) 1001 of the CIF cost of imported goods and 901 of expenditureson goods purchased locally; (e) 1001 of total expenditures on technical assistance, studies and overseas training and 50Z of the total cost of local training. The allocation of loan proceeds among the various loan categoriesis shown in Table 21. While the overall financing of overlay works during the project period corresponds to the foreign exchange component (651), the percentage in the first two years has been increased to 801 to ease the burden on the Government given the present acute shortage of foreignexchange. (The financingfor overlayworks in the last two years is only 501).
5.12 Retroactivefinancing, up to a total of US$0.2 million for equipment (fare-boxes for buses) and US$150,000 for consultants (bus operations, road maintenance and project accounting) is recommended for expendituresmade after March 1, 1992, but before loan signature. These payments ensure continuity of the technicalassistance program startedunder the first Bank project and provide urgent short-term assistance to the Transport Board.
5.13 A special account will be established in the Central Bank with an initial deposit of US$1.7 million, which representsapproximately four months of Bank-financed expenditures. MCW would be entitled to make payments from the Special Account for the Bank-financedportion of all expenditures.Applications for replenishmentof the Special Account would be submittedusing statementsof Expenditures(SOE'a) for expendituresunder contractsfor: (a) civil works whose value is the equivalentof US$500,000 or less; (b) expendituresunder contracts for equipment purchasewhose value is US$25,000 or less; and (c) expenditureson consultantswhose contractvalue is the equivalentof US$50,000 or less. Back-up documentationwould be reviewed by supervisionmissions in the field on a sample basis. All other withdrawal applicationswould be fully documented.
5.14 The estimateddisbursement schedule for the proposed loan, based on the assumptionthat the loan would become effectivein the third quarter of 1992, is shown in Table 22. The estimatedprofile extends disbursementsthrough March 1997, or approximately4.5 years. This is about one year less than it took to disburse the funds allocated for civil works under the first loan. The smaller share of rehabilitationunder the present project and the lack of force-account capital works will help expedite project execution.
D. Audits
5.15 Records related to project expenditureswill be kept by the Internal Financial Account System (IPAS),a unit within the Accounting Departmentof MCW which was established under the first project. The Project coordinator will ensure that all bills are promptly sent to IFAS for processing. The Internal Auditor will provide an additionalcontrol point, verifyingthat all payments are made against eligible expenditures.
5.16 All accounts under the first loan were audited by private external auditors. There were some delays in submissionof reports but their quality has been acceptable. Agreement was reached during negotiations that the project accounts, the Special Account and SOE's will be audited by private external auditors, acceptable to the Bank, in accordance with appropriate accounting - 30 -
principles,and that auditstatements will be submittedno laterthan fivemonths after the end of each fiscalyear. E. Monitoring

5.19 ZCW will submitto the Bank quarterlyreports, to be preparedby the Project coordinator, showing: (a) progress on each contract under implementation;(b) up-to-date project cost estimateby component;(c) statusof - 31 - loan disbursementsagainst forecast; end (d) actualamount spent in counterpart funds for each project componentagainst the amount budgeted. The Project Coordinatorwill be responsiblefor preparationof *ll reports.
5.20 In the firstquarter of 1994,the Bankwill conducta mid-termreview with the participationof MCW and the Ministryof Financeand EconomicAffairs. The reviewwill covers physicalprogress of the project;execution of the institutionalstrengthening program; implementation of the Five-YearInvestment Plan and Four-YearMaintenance Plan and theircorresponding financing; the status of computerizationof MCW'saccounts; and progresson the actionplans resulting from the TransportBoard Study and the Road NetworkRationalization Study. At the Bank'srequest, the Governmentwill adopt the requiredremedial actions. F. EnvironmentalImnact
5.21 The projectitsolf will not have any adverseenvironmental impact as most civil works involve only overlaysover existingroads. The two road sectionsto be rehabilitateddo not involvea major change in alignmentor relocation.On the otherhand, the projectwill reducetraffic congestion, air pollution,and road accidents. The CDB-financedrehabilitation of a secticnof Highway2A involvesrelocation and changesin alignment;disbursements of that loan are conditionalon agreementon adequatemitigatory measures. 5.22 All civil works contractssigned by MCW include provisionsfor cleaningup of constructionsites and removalof debris. However,MCW does not have any staffassigned on a permanentbasis for monitoring compliance with these provisions.Agreement should be reachedduring negotiations that, as a condition for loan effectiveness,MCW will appointan environmentalofficer within the TechnicalDepartment under termsof referenceacceptable to the Bank. A suitable candidateis currentlyundergoing overseas training in the environmentalcontrol area.
5.23 Environmentalmonitoring for transportprojects at the Government level is vested in the EnvironmentalUnit of the Ministryof Labor,Consumer Affairs and the Environment. The unit has four technicalofficers, all with training in relevant areas. The unit is preparing environmental impact statements on an ad-hoc basis such as the recent study for the Traffic Management Projectbeing preparedby the IDB. 5.24 The operationof quarriesis governedby the QuarriesAct of 1967. The act providesfor substantialsafeguards to ensure their safe operation. However,the Act does not providefor similarsafeguards against soil erosion, contaminationof undergroundwater or any otherenvironmental hazard. Agreement should be reached during negotiationsthat the Governmentwill prepare an amendmentto the QuarriesAct to includeenvironmental considerations and submit it to Parliamentno laterthan June 30, 1993. G. ProisctRisk 5.25 The projectposes little risk from the technicalpoint of view, becauseit involvesmainly overlaysover existingroads. As statedin paras. 3.1-3.5,execution of the firstBank projecthas been satisfactory,and did not raiseany major implementationissues. Cooperationwith all consultantsunder the technical assistanceprogram has been good and MCW has shown strong - 32 - commitmentto implementthe institutionalImprovement program. Some delays experiencedwith civilworks under the ongoingloan are unlikelyto recurbecause the proposedproject does not includeany more force-accountcapital works, which were the main reasonfor the delays. 5.26 The deterioratingmacro-economic framework could leadto shortageof counterpartfunds. The projecthas tried to minimizethis risk by agreeingon an overall investmentplan which maintains a viable road conservationand rehabilitationstrategy, while keepingwithin the substantiallylower limits for capitalexpenditures. Furthermore, the project is designedso that its size could be adjusteddownward, if necessary,by reducingthe overlayprogram which is carriedout in four annualpackages. In addition,budget difficulties _ould impactMCW's resourcesavailable for road maintenance.The projectincludes a redesignedmaintenance plan based on the reducednumber of staff availableand allocatesmost periodicmaintenance work to private contractors. However, additional cuts beyond those already introduced could jeopardize this equilibrium.Given the recentstand-by agreement with the IMF, the risk of the GOB havingto resortto additionalbudgetary cuts, is low. 5.27 The Governmentcould encounter political difficulties in implementing the privatizationof the TransportBoard operationsbecause of the short-term employmenteffect (the TRB employsover 12 of the country'swork force). We believe, however,that the Governmentis stronglycommitted to the privatization strategy. To encouragethe Governmentto followthrough on this comitment, disbursementsagainst overlay works in FY94/95and beyondwill depend on the progroasin implementingthe privatizationscheme.

Organizationally,the responsibilityfor road maintenance operations is divided between three organizationalunits: i) the Maintenance Management Section (MMS), which is in charge of maintenance planning and budgeting, and evaluating the implementationof such maintenance plans; ii) the seven Road Districts, which are in charge f delivering maintenance services through 13 individualdepots or maintenancefacilities, conveniently distributed throughout the island; and iii) the Equipment Management Section, which is responsiblefor equipment operation. The first two units are under the Operations Division, whereas the third operates under the Mechanical Division (Workshop). To enhance coordination between these units and periodically review progress on the development of improved procedures for road maintenance management, MCW designated in 1991 a Technical Committee,which consists of key personnel from the Operations Division. In addition, two other units also provide support to maintenance operations: the Materials Management Section within the Operations Division, which administerscontracts for procurementof materials and supplies needed for all road work carried out by force account, as quarries and asphalt mix plants are currently owned and operated by the private sector; and the Workshop Section, within the Mechanical Division,which is in charge of keeping operational MCW's road maintenance equipment fleet as well as the Government's general purpose vehicle fleet. The chart of this annex describes the existing maintenance operations organization down to the maintenance crew level. In general, the organizationalstructure of all these units is adequate. However, one weakness has been the lack of coordinationin the assignment of equipment units to maintenance operations,which is discussed in detail in para. 14. 2. The overall budget for maintenancehas been generally in line with the requirements. However, operationalefficiency has remained low because of over- staffing and improper preparation of maintenance budgets and allocations of resourcesamong uses. Maintenancebudgets have reflectedin the past significant resource imbalance; an average of 73% have been allocated to labor-related expenditures, leaving little for materials (20%) and equipment (7Z). The majority of workers are employed in the districts. Until mid-1991 MCW had employed on average some 1400 personnel assigned to maintenance operations. In reality, only about 60% were necessary to deliver maintenance services and the rest were partially used to carry out capital works. This situation has been corrected recently under the recent retrenchmentprogram by which maintenance operations labor force has been reduced to about 776 staff (30 technicians and 746 supervisorsand workers). Consequently,with the retrenchmentprogram, MCW has now completed a tentative reassignmentof road maintenance staff among all categories s-ndis in the process of putting it into effect. - 60 - ANNEX1 Page 2 of 9 Road Maintenance Personnel Ex Weedina Patching Drainaxe Other Total 1986/87 500 230 210 260 1,200 1987/88 300 375 150 175 1,000 1988/89 200 380 145 275 1,000 1989/90 315 375 105 315 1,110 1990/91 430 370 198 396 1,384 1991/92 430 370 198 396 1,384 1992/93 186 220 110 270 776 3. Maintenance management is still an area with a clear scope for improvement. The Highway MaintenanceManagement System (HMMS) establishedunder the first Bank project enabled MMS to prepare the Four-Year Maintenance Plan, which is discussedbelow. However, this system has not yet been installedin the field, and hence, not tested by maintenance crews. To carry out the Four-Year Maintenance Plan, MCW needs to implement appropriate field work scheduling and feedback reporting procedures, and to improve resource usage and crew productivity. The proposed project will assist MCW in implementing the HMNMS throughoutall districtsand depots by providinga follow-uptechnical assistance in road maintenance and a training program to instructmaintenance staff in the new procedures, under the terms of reference outlined in Annex 3. In addition, the projectwill furtherthe technicalassistance to MMS under terms of reference provided in Annex 4. Four-Year Maintenance Proaram 4. During project preparation, MCW with assistance of consultants and IBRD staff, developeda performancemaintenance program for fiscal years 1992/93 to 1995/96. This process started with the completion of the road feature inventoryof the entire highway system,which includes the quantity and specific condition of each component that needs to be maintained in each link. Then, 29 maintenanceactivities (23 activities for routine maintenanceand 6 for periodic maintenance)-- which provide for the most frequent and relevant tasks needed to maintain all road features-- were selected. For each activity, a work measurement unit (e.g. tons of patching)was assigned and performance standards were developed. These performance standards define the activity, the daily resource requirementsin terms of crew and equipment, the daily accomplishment expected when using such resources (productivity)and the approved work method. In addition,MCW establishedthe levels of service to be maintained on each road component when providing a "full level" of maintenance services. This "full level" was defined by a set of quantity standards (e.g. tons of patching per year) --variable according to road class and component condition--, with a separate standard for each activity. They were fixed by the Technical Committee based on the existing experience. The annualwork quantitieswere determined for each maintenance activity by multiplying the quantity standards by the appropriateinventory quantity. The amount and types of resources requiredwere determined by using each maintenance activity's performance standard. Annual costs for each activity were computed by multiplying the resource quantities by unit costs for labor, equipment and materials as determined by the Maintenance Management Section (MMS). The sum of all annual activity costs is the maintenance budget. - 61 - ANNEX 1 Page 3 of 9 5. The maintenance program for fiscal year 1992/93 is given in Table 6 of this report. The maintenance program and budget were prepared for each maintenance district. The total program for the entire road network was determined as a sum of all district programs. The total maintenance budget, as calculated,is US$10.4million, of which US$7.3 million (70.22)is for activities considered as routine maintenance and US$3.1 million (29.8Z) for periodic maintenance. Out of the total maintenanceprogram, about US$1.4 million (13.5Z) will be carried out by contract. The plan includes,under periodic maintenance activities,extensive overlayand reseal programs (see para. 9 and 10); a portion of the first contract for overlayworks is included in this fiscal year while the remainder is included in fiscal year 1993/94. Another special feature of this plan is the inclusion of a Routine-Maintenance-By-ContractPilot Program, described in para. 18 of this annex. This maintenance plan provides for an adequate level of funding according to the existing network needs, a well balanced distributionbetween routine and periodicmaintenance, and an increased participation by private contractors. The plan also gives the total staffing requirements in each labor category, the number of units of each equipment and required quantities of all materials. Tables 7 and 8 show the results in terms of key resource requirements (materials, labor and equipment) by maintenance activity and budgets required for force account works, respectively. These requirementsare consistent with the current levels of personnel and equipment available within MCW. 6. The programs for the period 1993/94 - 1995/96 were prepared on the same basis that of the 1992/93. They are also based on the assumption that the condition of the network will be improved through the implementation of the rehabilitationand periodic maintenance programs. Tables 1 to 3 in this annex show the results (in BD$) determined for each fiscal year. For the sake of brevity, the tables showing the resource requirementshave been omitted. The total budget for fiscal year 1993/94 is slightly higher than the others; this is because the first year overlay program is more costly due to the higher cost of the roads involved (Highway 1). Maintenanceby contract is on the average about 302, which is adequate. MCW will update annually the Four-Year Maintenance Program based on an update of the road feature inventory and overlay and reseal programs, and feedback from maintenanceprogram under execution. The cost of the Four-Year Maintenance Plan is as follows: Maintenance Programs 1992/93-1995/96 Summary of Costs(&) Fiscal Total S of which Routine Maintenance Periodic Maintenance Year Budget by contract Total % of total Total X of total O&RprogramCb) ------. ,------_------_--_----__----_-----__-----_------1992/93 10.4 13.51 7.3 70.2S 3.1 29.82 60.0 km 1993/94 13.1 32.21 7.2 55.0X 5.9 45.0S 96.8 km 1994/95 12.3 28.51 6.9 56.01 5.4 44.01 101.2 km 1995/96 12.2 30.31 6.6 54.01 5.6 46.01 99.2 km ------_-_------__------__------_------Total 48.0 26.71 28.0 58.32 20.0 41.71 357.2 km ---- _------__---___------___------__------__----____--_------(*JCost in US$ million.

The plans provide the necessary inputs to prepare an appropriate maintenance budget and establish the key resources needed for force account works. To ensure that they can be implemented,the provision by the Government to MCW of an annual allocationfor materials consistentwith the requirementsof the plans constitutesa conditionof the proposed project.

Overlay and Reseal Programs 8. The periodic maintenanceprogram consistsmainly of overlay and reseal works. The overlay and reseal programs have been designed to curb the current trend by which the length of the road network in fair to poor condition -- requiringperiodic maintenance--is increasingannually. Timely interventionis particularlyimportant in the case of roads in fair condition,since the repairs needed once the pavement starts to break up are several times more costly. (Generally,costs of reconstructionare four times higher than the cost of an opportune overlay or reseal work). 9. About 250 km of primary and secondary roads (approximately42Z of the main network) are now in fair condition, and almost 60 km (about 102) in poor condition; a substantialportion of this network carries sufficient traffic to warrant an overlay. The overlay program aims at raising the standards and preventing further deteriorationof this part of the network. About 250 km of primary and secondary roads will be overlaid during project implementation; overlay works for about 150 km (about 60% of the total) of high priority roads will be contracted out, while the remainingportion will be carried out by force account. The proposed projectwill finance the overlayprogram to be carried out by contract,which totals US$15.2million. This will help MCW reduce the backlog in periodic maintenance during the four-yearperiod to a level consistentwith its ability to perform the required work using its own resources. The list of the selected road links included in the proposed project is given in Table 17 of the report. These road sections were selected based on pavement condition surveys, which included measuring pavement distress and surface roughness, traffic data and economic evaluation. The works were divided into four groups, each representingan annual overlay program of approximately40 km to be carried out by private contractors. The distributionamong years was determined on the basis of the relative economic benefits of the projects. To complete the overlay program, MCW will perform overlays on about 25 km each year, using its own - 63 - ANNEX1 Page 5 of 9 resources; MCW's technical and operational capacity are adequate for the job. The list of road sections to be overlaid by force account is given in Table 4 of this annex. This list will be updated annually based on an economic evaluation and prioritizationof overlay needs. 10. The reseal program will provide preventive maintenance to about 140 km of local and some secondary roads. The work will be carried out entirely by force account. MCW has the expertise, personnel and equipment to do the job. The list of road sections selected for the reseal program is given in Table 5 in this annex. The distribution among years, approximately 35 km per year, was determined taking into account road condition and traffic. Again, the list will be updated annually based on an update of the road and traffic inventories. Eaui2ment Fleet 11. MCW's road maintenance fleet is composed of 291 unit, of which 90 (331) are less than seven years old, 102 (38%) between 7 and 15 years old, and 78 (291) more than 15 years old. At present, 174 units (60%) are in service -- although about 72 units (25%) have some problems that will require repair during the next four-year period--, 53 units (18%) need rehabilitationand 64 (22X) should be discarded. Table 6 of this annex shows the various equipment groups and the current condition of each group. This workable fleet is not adequate to carry out the work by force account defined in the Four-YearMaintenance Program. New units will be needed to complete or replace old units, and many of the existing units will need major repairs, rehabilitationor reconstructionduring the four-year period. Finally, very old units, whose rehabilitation is not justified on economic grounds will be sold at auction or discarded. Eauipment Management 12. The efficiency of the workshop operations has remain low in the past. Equipment availability, currently about 60%, has been limited by the lack of timely provision of spare DArts and by the fleet's aging. Some equipment is so old that spare parts are not commercially available and in order to keep it operating the workshop has to adapt alternate parts. In addition, improper planning of preventive maintenance has caused long down-time. The proposed project provides for replacementof old and costly-to-operatedequipment units, which will lessen the workload on the workshop, as well as increase the number of units in operation. This will enable the workshop to concentrate on preventive or planned repairs and perform more rehabilitationtype work. Also, a portion of this component is earmarked for purchase of spare parts to support MCW's execution of the equipment rehabilitationand repair program. 13. The existing organizationalstructure for equipmentadministration is adequate and only minor changesare needed. However, accountabilityof equipment management and incentivesfor efficientutilization need to be strengthened. The implementationunder the proposed of project of the Equipment Management System (EMS) will provide relevant data to monitor workshop performance and equipment operation. Concurrently,in the future, each equipmentunit will prefer&bly be - 64 - ANNEX 1 Page 6 of 9 assigned to a specific operator who will be responsible for its operation and day-to-day maintenance. These operators will be trained under a program developed by MCW's workshop and to be financed by the proposed project. 14. Better coordinationis needed between the Operations Division and the Equipment Management Section within the workshop to improve the assignment of equipment units to maintenance operations. Currently, the Operations Division has little input into how the equipment fleet is assigned to the districts and how the preventive maintenanceis performed. Frequently,equipment and vehicles are removed from operation for maintenance servicing by the workshop, are not replaced with substitute units, and then held out of service for extensive periods of time, often for repairs that have to wait for spare parts. The lack of an annual equipment servicingprogram, of an adequate stock of spare parts, and of a maintenance work program capable of determining districts' equipment needs, has contributedlargely to this problem. The proposed projectwill assist MCW in overcoming these problems by financing the purchase of parts, updating road maintenance plans and providinga second-phasetechnical assistance program geared at improving the efficiency of the workshop. Coordination between Operations and the workshop will be enhanced by having the Head of the Equipment Management Section and representatives of the workshop participate in the TechnicalCommittee. This committeewill meet monthly to review road maintenance program and the equipment needs originating from such program, and ensure coordinationwith the workshop. Eauipment Acquisition.Rehabilitation and Disposal 15. Based on the resources needed to carry out the Four-Year Maintenance Program and the existing condition of the fleet, MCW prepared the equipment acquisition program given in Table 18 of the report. This program is satisfactory. It comprises a total of 112 units, consisting of 31 major equipment units and 81 minor equipment pieces,which will be purchased under the proposed project at a cost of about US$1.65 million. The units selected provide for a high efficiency in maintenance operations and are consistent with MCW's maintenance practices. MCW, assisted by a consultant, will develop final specificationssuitable for procurementpurposes. These specificationswill also cover on-site training for servicing,minor repair and adjustments procedures, and operator's training needs. 16. In parallel with the equipment acquisitionprogram, MCW also defined the equipment rehabilitationprogram shown in Table 19 of the report. This program includes the needs for rehabilitation and major repairs of all the existing units which will not be discarded (i.e. those whose cost of rehabilitationis less than 40Z of their replacementcost) during the four-year period. The program will be carried out in MCW's workshop, which has proper facilities and competent personnel for this task. The proposed project will finance US$0.7 million in spare parts needed to repair and rehabilitate the equipment listed in Table 19 of the report. Rehabilitationof diesel engines (fuel pumps and injectors)will be contracted out, as MCW's workshop lacks the equipment to do this job, at an estimatedcost of US$0.13 million. The proposed -65- ANNEX1 Page 7 of 9 project will finance 60X of the total cost of equipment rehabilitation by contract. 17. Finally, obsolete equipment will be disposed during the four-year period. MCW has already "deadlined" 33 major units for disposal. MCW will prepare a policy guidelineand update the program for disposal of equipmentunits which are under one of the following conditibns: i) equipment wrecked beyond economical repair; ii) cost to repair is greater than 401 of the cost of a replacement unit; and, iii) equipment no longer needed because of its low reliabilityor because of changes in work procedures. Through the implementation of these three programs MCW will increase the equipment availabilityratio from the present 60% tc an appropriate 85% by 1994, which will enable an efficient utilization of the equipment fleet. Routine-Maintenance-By-ContractPilot Proarsm 18. Program Obiectives. The main objective of this pilot program is to obtain experience on costs, quality of work, supervision needs, benefits and disadvantagesof contractmaintenance as comparedwith force accountmaintenance. Lessons learned from this pilot scheme and the comparison with force account operations will enable MCW to establish a clear policy for delivery of road maintenance,while identifyingpossibilities for increasingproductivity of force account work, assessing the capability of the existing local construction industry and potential interest in routine maintenance, and exploring which alternativemodes to carry out maintenanceactivities are more cost-effectiveand what implementationproblems need to be resolved in order to adopt them. 19. ScoDe of the Pilot Program. The program consist of 66.7 km of linked roads located in a geographical area which comprises part of the parishes of Christ Church, St. George and St. Philip. A complete list of the road sections included in the program is shown in Table 7 of this annex. These road sections constitute a representativesample of typical conditions observed islandwide, which will enable testing the performance of contracted mainten-ice under different environments: a variety of traffic conditions, ranging from high traffic (over 6,000 vehicles per day) to some low traffic local roads; an aple sample of road componenets to be maintained, from urban roads with curbs and stormdrains to rural roads with earth ditches and roadside vegetation; and different surface type (asphalt concrete and penetration treatment) showing different levels of distress (f-om good to poor). The sections have been distributedamong three parishes with extensive road networks to avoid the risk of staff redundancy within MCW districts. 20. The pilot program involves all routinemaintenance activities included in MCW's annual maintenance plan. The work program has been developed taking into account the same maintenance activities and quantity standards uEed by MCW in force account operations. Table 8 of this annex summarizes the maintenance plan for a two-year period, with the list of maintenance activities, the correspondingmeasurement units and an estimate of quantities for each activity or work program. However, some activitieswill have to be divided into separate items to facilitate their tendering,measurement and payment. MCW will review - 66 - ANNEX 1 Page 8 of 9 this list during preparationof the final documents for bidding. The total cost of the RMBC Pilot Program has been estimated at US$0.64 million, based on historical data using force account because data on unit cost for maintenance work performed by contract is not yet available. 21. Contract type and provisions. The contract will be of the "unit price" type. However, in order to provide for inclusionof additionalwork items not initiallyincluded in the contract,the tendererswill be requested to quote hourly rates for basic equipmentand personnel, and some allowance for up to 10% of the contract'svalue to be done on a cost-plus-fixed-profitfee basis will be included for activitieswhose unit costs cannot be reasonablepredicted. Payment will be based on actual quantities and quoted or established prices. Although the work program defines quantitiesof work, the contract will allow variations in defect or excess over those originally estimated. MCW will assess the capacity of the local constructionindustry and the most convenient-- and likely- - size to be targeted by the program. Based on this analysis, MCW will define the duration of the contract (one contract two-year period or two contracts one- year period), as well ae allowancefor advances for mobilization --usually about 20%-- and the value of performanceguarantees to be requested, if any. MCW will complete preparation of the bid package, which will include contract forms, minimum qualifications to be met by bidders, technical specifications,bond requirements, plans including location of the selected road links, and informationto bidders on the bid process, award criteria,project implementation and supervisoryarrangements. 22. Tendering of Contracts. To obtain responsive competitive bids, MCW will advertise locally the invitation to bid and will schedule a pre-bid conference. Through this meeting, MCW will answer questions that potential bidders may have about the project requirementsand to ensure that all bidders fully understandwhat is required,the methods to be used, the expected schedule, special equipment or personnelrequirements and any other informationthat could add to their understandingof the project before preparing their proposals. The contract will be awarded to the bidder whose bid has been determined to be substantiallyresponsive to the bidding documents and who has offered the lowest evaluated bid price, provided further that the bidder has the capability and resources to carry out the contract as effectivelyestablished in the bidding documents. 23. Contract Management and SuDervisory Arranzements. The Operations Division within the TechnicalDepartment will be in charge of the implementation of the pilot project. MCW will designatea Program Coordinatorto administerthe contracZ and provide the 'Liaisonbetween MCW and the contractor in order to ensure that the program is implementedin a timely fashion. Supervisionwill be carried o't by designated supervisorsfrom the Operations Division, using spots reviews to monitor quality of works and bi-weeklymeasurement of executed works to prepare payment statements. The ProgramCoordinator will retain close control over the works to be performed, identifyingpriorities and developing monthly work schedules;however, the contractorwill assume the responsibilityfor daily scheduling as well as execution of works. The supervisionwill keep records of the work accomplished in terms of pay quantities and compliance with specifications. - 67 - ANNEX1 Page 9 of 9 24. Program Evaluation and Recommendations. The consultants hired under the terms of reference given in Annex 3 will assess the comparative costs, benefits and quality of maintenance work carried out by contract and force account. The comparison of contract maintenance with similar work by force account will be based on performance and cost data (including direct cost, overhead and supervision costs) obtained from the RMBC pilot program and the evaluation of force account operationthrough the HMMS and EMS. The consultants will make recommendationsregarding: i) possibilitiesfor increasingproductivity of force account operations in view of the results of the RMBC pilot program; and ii) planning, financing, supervision, and administrative requirements for effective preparation and execution of maintenancework by contract (including recommendationson best activitiesto contract). Based on these recommendations, MCW will review the current maintenance policies in order to increase productivityof operationsby force account and introducemaintenance by contract on a larger scale if proved effective. 25. Schedule. MCW, assisted by a consultant,will complete preparation of the bid package and designate a program coordinator within its Operations Division. Contracting of a private contractor to carry out the pilot program should be completedby December 31, 1992. During the implementationof the pilot project, the Operations Division through the Program Coordinator,will collect data on cost and quality of maintenance activities carried out under the pilot program and similar work by force account. The preliminary assessment of the efficiency of road maintenance operations carr-id by both force account and contract should be available by December 31, 1993. MCW will discuss with the Bank the preliminary results during the Mid-Term Project Review in the first quarter of 1994. MCW will formulate such strategy and submit it to the Bank by December 31, 1994.

The Study's objectives are to: (a) identify the most appropriate mix of publicly and privately owned bus transport to meet public passenger transport demand for Barbados; and (b) determine the optimal organizational, operational and regulatory structure that will meet the requirements of this system at the least overall cost to the consumer and Government. Background 2. Passenger transport in Barbados is shared by the publicly-owned bus company, the Transport Board, with a fleet of about 180 buses, and private operators of minibuses (carrying 31 passenger) and maxi-taxis (carrying 10 passengers) in addition to regular taxis. There are 195 minibuses, 174 maxi- taxis and 1200 regular taxis in operation. The Ministry of Public Works, Communications and Transportation (MCW) assigns routes to minibuses, generally along corridors leading in and out of Bridgetown. 3. The Transport Board carries about 26 million passengers a year and employs about 1,500 people, of which about 1,000 are either drivers or conductors. It operates according to a published route and time schedule and services all areas in Barbados. Passenger fare, determined by the Government, is currently BDS $1.50 throughout the country with discounts for students and senior citizens. 4. The Transport Board has suffered operating losses since 1976 and has relied on Government support to conduct its operations. The main _easons for the loses were operating inefficiencies (a ratio of about 7 employees per bus), deficient maintenance of the bus fleet, and increasing competition from minibuses along the most lucrative passenger routes. The Government subsidy peaked in 1987/88 at a level of BDS $22 million; in recent years it has been between BDS $10 and $15 million. In addition, the Government hAs customarily financed the Transport Board's capital expenditures, mainly for bus purchases (e.g., BDS $6.7 million in 1990/91 and BDS $2.3 million in 1991/92). - 79 - ANNEX 2 Page 2 of 8 Scooe of Work 5. The Study is to be divided into four components: (a) Review of Existina Situation. This component will analyze the existing public transport system. (b) Definiticn and Analysis of Future ODtions. This component will define and compare the options for providing public transport on the island, with a view to (i.)determining the most appropriate public transport system both economically and socially; and (ii) reducing or eliminating Government subsidies to public bus transport. (c) Policy and Institutional Framework. This component will define the policy, planning, organizational and regulatory requirements for the adequate management of the preferred public bus transport option. It will include (i) the definition of the role of a Public Transport Authority/Commission which would have overall responsibility for the regulation of public transport; and (ii) the definition of the future roles of the Transport Board (if still in existence) and privately-owned public transit systems. (d) Imolementation Reauirements. This component will formulate re,.ommendations with regard to the implementation of the new public transport sys:em, if appropriate, and define the need, if any, for further technical assistance. Review of Existinc Situation 6. This component will cover, but not necessarily be limited to, the following activities, investigations and outputs: (a) Review of previous studies on bus transport in Barbados (see Appendix A) and definition of the existing bus network and services. (b) Using existing data sources, collecting the relevant existing ard projected socio-economic and demographic data on population and its distribution, education demand (transport of school children), industrial, tourism and other development, income distribution, vehicle ownership, road users, costs, public transport patronage by route and by service usage, et cetera. (Some data are available from the last census and regular quarterly sample household surveys c&rried out by tovernment). (c) Identify data gaps and fill them using limited surveys (in particu- lar, it is envisaged that some roadside counts may be required to determine the relative importance of the publicly and orivately owned bus systems). - 80 - ANNEX2 Page 3 of 8 (d) Using existing data sources, and only limited new data collection, study existing bus, mini-bus, route-taxi and normal taxi operations using cost data obtained from interviews with transport owners and analysis of available financial data. The investigations shall separate general passengers from subsidized passengers such as school children, old age pensioners and police, and distinguish by trip type, length, et cetera. The Consultants will prepare sJionle operating cost models for the different types of service.

Barbados has a well-developedroad network consisting of about 1,550 km. With the expansion of the road network substantially completed, providing adequatemaintenance is being assigned the highest priority. Efforts undertaken to improve maintenance management under the IBRD-financed (first) Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Project included creation in 1984 of the Maintenance Management Section (MMS) within MCW's Operations Division and technical assistance provided by consultantsin equipment and road maintenance management. The technical assistance in equipment management started early in 1988 and totalled four man-months. To date, an EquipmentManagement System (EMS) has been designed and adopted by the Workshop, and an inventoryof all but small equipment has been completed. In addition, to strengthen workshop management, MCW has recently appointed a Senior Mechanical Engineer and currently is in the procesn of reassigning some functions among its staff, according to an organizationalchart discussed with the consultants. With the EMS having been designed, further assistance is needed to ensure its full implementation, particularlythe cost accounting and equipment management policies that depend on feedback from the steady applicationof the system. 2. The technicalassistance in road maintenance,amounting to six man-months, started in September, 1989, with financing under the IBRD (first) Road Maintenance and RehabilitationProject. Its overall objective was establishing a Highway MaintenanceManagement System (HMMS). During this period, MCW set up the MKS to support the developmentof the HMMS, appointed additional staff, and purchased computers and a roughness meter, and designated in 1991 a Technical Committee (TC), which conisistsof key personnel from MCW's operations and Workshop division, to periodi.cally review the manuals, performancestandards and reporting systems of the HMMS and facilitate its implementation. On the technical side, the first roadway feature inventory of the whole network was completed in 1991 and several components of the HMMS were defined, including maintenar.ceperformance standards and a field operations manual. In addition, development of computer programs to facilitatemaintenance planning started in 1991 with IBRD assistance.However, the HMMS has not yet been installed in the field and its procedures not tested. Hence, additionaltechnical assistance is needed to ensure its full implementation, introduce improved maintenance practices through its application, and provide the necessary training of supervisors and maintenance crews to support it. - 87 - ANNEX 3 Page 2 of 7 Obiectives 2. The technical assistance aims at strengthening MCW's capacity to plan and carry out more efficient road maintenance operations through supporting full implementation of the HMMS and EMS in MCW's headquarters and maintenance districts. Specifics objectives are to: (a) improve the quality of road maintenance by upgrading work methods, providing levels of service consistent with road functional classes, and deliverJng opportune and responsive maintenance services; (b) increase productivity of maintenance operations by imprcving work scheduling practices, establishing uniform performance standards and monitor performance of maintenance crews; (c) assist in preparation of a priority-based maintenance performance plan and allocation of resources, supported by dependable information feedback from the field; (d) improve utilization of MCW's maintenance equipment through adequate management of MCW's Workshop operations and enhanced coordination between workshop and field forces; (e) monitor maintenance operational costs and other maintenance related expenditures, providing the necessary interface with the government's budgetary system; and (f) assess cost-effectiveness and relative quality of the Routine- Maintenance-by-Contract Pilot Program and the Periodic Maintenance Program performed by private contractors against force account work. Scope of the Assistance 3. The technical assistance will focus on field implementation. All of the aspects of the HMMS and EMS will be tested and upgraded according to the experience gained during their implementation. The consultants will assist MCW's Operations and Workshop divisions in strengthening road maintenance management and in achieving an adequate level of efficiency, as expressed by MCW's action plan for road maintenance improvement, included under the (IBRD-financed) Second Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Project. In particular, the consultants hired under this technical assistance will perform the following main tasks: (a) reviewing current maintenance procedures, policies and organizational capabilities within MCW and the districts; (b) assisting MCW in the implementation of all aspects of HMM4S in a pilot district; (c) upgrading work methods; (d) reviewing performance standards; (e) setting up an accounting system capable of monitoring MCW's expenditures according to specific tasks, reporting actual equipment cost performance, and providing the necessary interface between the existing budgetary system and both HMMS and EMS; (f) implementing the recommendations of the Road Network Rationalization Study (RNRS), defining maintenance activities, levels-of-service and - 88 - ANNIX 3 Page 3 of 7 quantity standards as needed for preparation and implementationof maintenance plans according to the maintenance strategies recommended by the study; (g) expanding the HMHS to all maintenance districts; (h) assisting MCW in developing the Routine-Maintenance-by-Contract (RMBC) Pilot Program; (i) assessing the efficiency of road maintenanceoperations carried out by both force account and contract; (j) assisting the workshop management in the implementation of all aspects of EMS and the establishmentof policies geared at reducing fleet operation costs and improving equipment availability and methods of equipment assignment to the districts; and (k) training MCW's maintenancepersonnel. 4. Reviewina current maintenance procedures. policies and organizational capabilities within MCW and the districts. The consultants will review the current maintenance policies used by MCW and organization set-up, particularly in the districts, in order to assess their efficiency and scope in relation to the implementation of the HMMS island-wide. The consultants will point out deficiencies ii both technical and organizationalmatters that could hinder implementationof the HMMS, as well as mechanisms to overcame such deficiencies and sequence in which these mechanisms should be implementedaccording to their relevance for the implementation of the HMNS. After agreement with the Technical Committee, these findings will he turned into an action plan, which in addition to guiding the consultant efforts, will also facilitate assignment of MCW's counterpart staff. S. Assistina MCW in the implementationof all asoects of the HMMS in a pilot district. The viabilityof all aspects of HMMS, especially field work scheduling and reporting procedures,will be tested first on a pilot district to generate basic field data and allow for fine tuning at an early stage. In this phase, the technical assistance will give special attention to the adequate use of the reporting procedures by field crews to ensure they supply timely, useful and accurate information as required while ascertaining that the design of the informationsheets provides for easy use in the field. In addition, this close monitoring of field practices will enable the consultants to validate the definitionof maintenanceactivities, maintenance performance standards, quantity standards and unit costs used by MKS to prepare maintenance performance plans. The consultantswill ensure that these elements of the HMMS, as implemented,are capable of providing a common baeis for measuring program compliance,unit costs, resource usage, productivity and other management and technical indicators. Finally, the implementationof the pilot program will enable the consultant to identify areas in which additionaltraining is required. 5. Upgradinawork methods. The consultantswill assesswork methods currently used by maintenance forces, analyzingsuch aspects as technology applied, use of equipment, composition and skills of crews, and quality control practices. Consequently, they will introduce improved work practices tailored to local conditions,and create checklistsand other simple guidelinesto help supervision and quality control of work in the field. - 89 - ANNX 3 Page 4 of 7 6. settina up a cost accountina svstem. The consultants will set up a computerizedcost accounting system to support the cost estimation and analysis systems recommended under the HMMS and EMS for road maintenance, equipment and spare parts management purposes. This system will enable MCW tot l) monitor its payments and expenditures on road maintenance according to work progreso; ii) determine actual direct and overhead costs of maintenanceactivities carried out by force account, and of supervisorycoats of activities performed by contract; iii) develop and charge equipment rental rates and report actual equipment cost performanceagainst the planned budgets; and iv) provide the necessary interface between the existing budgetary system and the maintenance and equipment management systems to enable the reconciliationof costs and resource usage. 7. Izmplementina the recommendations of the Road Network ationaliztsin Studv LRNRS). The results of the Road Network Rationalization Study will have a significant impact on both MCW'e maintenance policies and the Four-Year Maintenance Plan, as it will examine which roads need to be left without any maintenance,which ones need to be maintained to less than paved standard, and what activities, and in what frequency, are justified for each road in the remaining network. The consultants will assist MCW in implementing the recommendationsof the study, developing guidelines to interpret and carry out the policy recommendations through the maintenance management process and incorporatingin HMMS all adjustments needed in this respect, such as defining appropriate levels-of-service and quantity standards for each maintenance activity and road category,and new malntenance activities. The consultants will also assist MCW in formulating updated maintenance programs and reorganizing MCW's maintenance forces. 8. Exoandina the HMMSto all maintenance districts. As soon as the viability of the HMMSin the pilot district is demonstrated,the implementationof the system will be expanded to all the remaining districts. The consultants will strengthen the district's ability to develop and monitor weekly or bi-weekly programs tailored to reflect work priorities, the availabilityof maintenance resources (personnel,equipment and materials) and special conditions (urgentor emergency situations). During this phase, the consultantswill assist the TC in monitoring progress in the installationof HNNS at both the central and district level and adherence to its procedures and standards. Fo.rthis purpose, the consultants will prepare management evaluation reports, such as monthly maintenance activities reports, district monthly work progress and cost summary reports to be discuseed with all district techniciansduring the TC's meetings. In addition, the consultants will guide XCW in the preparation of annual maintenance reports, evaluating results accomplished by MCW in terms of compliance with the annual work plan and budget, adherence to maintenance performance standards and other indicator of efficiency, and evolutlon of the network condition during the period. 9. An6is 'w0 MCW in develo_ina the Routine-Maintenance-by-Contract(RMECE pilot Program. The consultantswill assist NCW in the supervisionand evaluation of the RMBC Pilot Program. The main objectiveof this pilot program is to obtain experience on costs, quality of work, supervision needs, and benefits and disadvantages of contract maintenance as compared with force account maintenance. - 90 - ANNEX 3 Page 5 of 7 In this respect, the consultants will: i) advise MCW's program coordinator on best procedures to perform supervisory tasks while ensuring that performance and cost data are being adequately collected; ii) establish procedures to colle !t performance and cost data needed to evaluate the results of the program; iii) recommend improved procedures with respect to planning, budgeting, tendering, supervising, and administering maintenance by contract; and iv) introduce the necessary adjustments to contract documents and procedures, standards and specifications to be used in the subsequent phase of the program. 10. Assessina the efficiency of road maintenance operations carried out by both force account and contract. The technical assistance will assess the comparative costs, benefits, and quality of maintenance work --routine and periodic-- carried out by contract and force account. The comparison of contract maintenance with force account maintenance will be based on performance and cost data (including direct, overhead and supervision costs) obtained from the RMBC pilot program, the evaluation of force account operations through the HMMS and EMS, and the execution of periodic maintenance contracts (overlay program). This analysis will look at differences in aspects such as: quality of meterials and workmanship; selection of appropriate equipment, including use of specialized equipment; compliance with work specifications and safety standards; success in handling road traffic through work zones; level of supervision required; flexibility and time required to respond to emergencies and other unscheduled work; and response to increased or peak workloads. The consultants will also identify those activities which showed greater cost-efficiency when carried out by force account, and vice versa, in order to facilitate future decisions on contracting. Based on these findings, the consultants will make recommendations regarding: i) possibilities for increasing productivity of force account operations in view of the results of the RMBC pilot program; and ii) planning, financing, supervision, and administrative requirements for effective preparation and execution of maintenance work by contract (including selection of work iteme to be contracted and measurement units; type, scope and duration of contracts; procurement procedures for contracting, payment provisions and procedures, and bidding documents; frequency of inspection, the form of reporting, and recommended practices for supervision of contracted maintenance). 11. Assistina Workshop's manacement in the implementation of all aspects of EMS. The consultants will assist MCW's Workshop in analyzing the data on the availability and use of MCW's equipment fleet according to the EMS, and i.msplementingthe programs and policies on equipment management derived from these analyses. This task will require: i) development of productivity performance standards for most frequent tasks carried out in the Workshop; ii) preparation of specifications and technical documents for procurement of new equipment (including requirements for critical spare parts items and on-site training for servicing, minor repair and adjustment procedures); iii) guidance during the execution of the equipment rehabilitation program; iv) preparation of a program for disposal of obsolete and costly-to-operate equipment; and iv) developing an engine oil analysis program to enhance EMS' equipment preventive maintenance program, to be contracted out; vi) establishing a computerized spare parts inventory capable of maintaining a file of all parts stocked in the workshop together with balances on hand, in order to analyze parts usage, generate stock - 91 - ANNEX 3 Page 6 of 7 management information and process accounting transactions for parts issued, receipts, and adjustments. 12. Trainina MCW's maintenance personnel. To achieve the objectives of this technical assistance, training for improved productivity is essential. The consultants will provide on-the-job training to the counterpart personnel assigned by MCW, making them effectively participate in all technical assistance activities to ensure full knowledge of procedures and systems developed by the consultants. Based on the findings of the pilot district, the consultants will prepare and assist MCW in delivering a comprehensive training program to support a complete implementation of the HMMS and EMS. This program will be conveniently targeted at technicians, supervisors and other workers, and its content will vary according to the specific needs of these groups. The consultants will also set up a system for the evaluation and control of the training programs, and provide technical training to instructors selected among MCWIs staff, in order to ensure the continuity of the maintenance training program once the consultant's services are completed. Staffina 13 The technical assistance will be carried out over a period of 24 months by the following specialists: i) a road maintenance engineer with background in maintenance management systems, maintenance operations by force account, routine and periodic maintenance by contract, computer systems, and training personnel, who will be the program leader (18 months); ii) an equipment and workshop specialist, with experience in equipment management systems (9 months); iii) a specialist in maintenance cost accounting, with experience in computerized systems (9 months); Executing Agencv and Counterpart Staff 14. MCW Technical Department, through its Operations and Workshop Divisions, will be the executing agency. Currently, Operatiors is in charge of managing road maintenance operations through seven districts, which are responsible for field operations. The Maintenance Management Sec_ion (MMS), within the Operations Division, is in charge of maintenance planning and evaluation. The utilization and control of all maintenance equipment come under the responsibility of the Workshop division. To strengthen its capacity to effectively coordinate maintenance activities, MCW has appointed a Technical Committee, which meets twice a month. MCW will designate among its permanent staff at the central office and the districts the counterpart personnel to be assigned to the consutltants. - 92 - ANNEX 3 Page 7 of 7 Schedule and Reoorts 15.

In, 1984 MCW created, within its Operations Division, the Maintenance Management Section (MMS)I to monitor the quality and efficiency of maintenance activities performed by MCW's forces. Further, in November, 1987, MCW entered into an agreementwith the U.S. Federal Highway Administration(FHWA) to provide technical assistance in several areas. The technical assistance in road maintenance --totallingeight man-months--was launchedin September,1989, with the overall objective of establishinga Highway Maintenance Management System (HMMS). During this period, MMS was set up to support the development of the HMMS: additional staff was appointed and computers were purchased in mid-1990. The first roadway feature inventory of the island's 1570 km of highways was completed by January, 1991 and several components of the HMMS were defined, incluling maintenanceperformance standards and a field operations manual. In addition,MCW appointed a TechnicalCommittee (TC) --consistingof key personnel from MCW's Operations and Workshop divisions-- to periodically review the manuals, standards and reporting systems of the HMMS and facilitate its implementation. Also, in 1991 MMS began operating a Mays Ride Meter to measure pavement roughness and developing computer programs to facilitate maintenance planning. However, such progress has been adversely affected by the recent layoffs of some of MMS staff under the retrenchmentprogram and the retirement of its Head. Although MMS has been partially restaffed by reassignment of personnel from other units within the Operations Divisions, there is an urgent need to strengthen the MMS, train its new staff, and assist the Technical Committee to enable full developmentand implementationof the HMMS. Obiectives 2. The overall objectiveof the technicalassistance is to improvemaintenance planning and monitoring by strengtheningMMS' capacityto: i) prepare needs-based annual maintenance plans and work calendars! Li) update the roadway feature inventory and other information systems on a periodic basis; iii) assist the districts in scheduling and reporting work programs; iv) report monthly on work accomplishments,work cost and productivity,and evaluate the results achieved during the implementationof the work programs; and v) update from time to time performance standards, cost estimates, and quality and quantity standards, according to recommendationsof the TC. l/Initially this section was named Method and Analysis, and staffed with a Senior Technician and a supervisor. - 94 - ANNEX 4 Page 2 of 3 Scope of the Assistance 3. The consultant hired under this technical assistance will perform the following main taskss (a) assisting the Head of MMS in the implementationof HMMS and training MMS staff; (b) reviewing road inventory sections and preparing districts maps, appropriate for use in maintenanceoperations; (c) upgrading the roadway feature inventory and data collection procedures; (d) developing computer programs to support the application of HMHS in maintenance planning and evaluation; (e) assisting tha Tecnnical Committee in reviewing HMMS's components; (f) updating MCW's Four-YearMaintenance Plan; (g) preparing the Periodic Maintenance Program to be carried out by MCW's Operations Division and the Routine-Maintenance-By-Contract (RMBC) Pilot Program; 4. Assisting the Head of MMS in the imoiementationof HMMS and trainina MMS staff. The consultant will help the new Head of MMS --to be designated-- in getting acquainted with all aspects of the development of HMMS and in reorganizingMMS's teams. In order to develop the specializedskills required, MMS' staff will be grouped into two units: i) Roadway Feature Inventory Unit, which will be in charge of updating road inventories and condition surveys -- includingmeasurement of pavement roughnesswith the Mays Ride Meter (MRM)--;and ii) Planning, Evaluation and Control Unit, which will be responsible for preparation of maintenance plans and evaluation of work. The consultant will prepare job descriptions and skill requirements for each position within this units ard will train the designated staff accordingly. While overseeing the tasks performed by MMS staff, the consultantwill provide on-the-jobtraining in all aspects related to the implementationof the HMMS. Special attention will be devoted to training of staff assigned to the operation of MRM; this comprehensive training program will cover theory and practice regarding: i) calibrationwith test sections;ii) ) equipmentoperation and use of softwarefor data collection; iii) use of control sections; and iv) data analysis and applications. The consultant will also provide technical assistance to the TC through field testing of all aspects of the HMMS, helping the committee in reviewing the HMMS' components and the procedures to be followed under the system. In this regard, he will prepare short guidelines and follow-upreports to be distributed to techniciansand discussed at TC's meetings. 5. Reviewing road inventory sections and preDarino districts ma2s. The consultant will review the current road sections defined in the inventory to ensure that they are homogeneous in terms of traffic, pavement type, organizational limits (districts and parishes) and easily identified in the field. Then, he will prepare appropriatemaps of all roads within a district with all road sections clearly identified,in order to enable their utilization by maintenance crews for work scheduling and reportingpurposes. A code will be assigned to each road segment to facilitate its identificationin the system. - 95 _ ANNEX 4 Page 3 of 3 6. Upgrading the roadway feature inventory and data collection Rrocedures. The technical assistance will review the scope and consistency of the information available through the Roadway Feature Inventory as well as the efficiency and reliability of the data collection procedures. Based on this, he will: i) establish procedures to incorporate roughness and traffic data into the inventory, and perform more objective pavement condition surveys; ii) assist MMS in the implementation of the Bridges, Culverts and Wells Inventory; iii) organize and oversee updating of the road inventory; and iv) assist the Traffic Unit in implementing the Road Signs Inventory and a computerized Road Traffic Inventory, compatible with the MMS' information systems. 7. Developina computer Programs to sunoort the aoilication of HMMS in maintenance vlannino and evaluation. The consultant will continue the development of computer programs to enhance the capabilities of the Maintenance Planning and Budgeting software. These new programs will support preparation of annual work calendars, evaluation and control of maintenance works, and preparation of management reports. In addition, the consultant will assist the Senior Mechanical Engineer in developing computerized information systems compatible with those used by the MMS. 8. Updatina MCW's Four-Year Maintenance Plan. The consultant will guide MMS staff through a complete application of all HMMS components as well as the computer software developed to support some of its phases. Particularly, updating MCW's performance maintenance plans for the years 1993/94-1995/96 will become necessary once the road inventory is updated and results from the 1992/92 maintenance plan are known. In addition, the consultant will assist the Operations Division in the preparation of the documents needed to implement the RMBC Pilot Program. 9. PreDaring the Periodic Maintenance Program to be carried out by MCW's OtperationsDivision and the Routine-Maintenance-By-Contract (RMBCl Pilot Program. This task will require the selection of road sections to be included in MCW's Resealing and Overlay Programs as well as the RMBC pilot program, preparation of work programs, and, in the case of the RMBC pilot program, preparation of appropriate tendering documents. Staff ina 10. The technical ae-istance will be provided by a specialist in road maintenance management and computerized systems. It is envisaged that 18 man- months will be needed to complete the tasks described above. Schedule and Revorts 11. The technical assistance will start early in 1992. The consultant will submit quarterly reports. - 96 - ANNEX5 Page 1 of 3 BARBADOS SECOND ROAD MAINTENANCE AND REHABILITATIONPROJECT Road Network RationalizationStudy Terms of Reference Background 1. Barbados has a total area of only 430 square kilometers but enjoys a relatively extensive paved road network of 1,550 km (381 km primary; 215 km secondary; and 954 km of local and developmentroads). The paved road density, at 3.6 per square kilometers, is high in comparison with other islands of a similar nature. The relativelyflat terrain (exceptfor the north-easternpart of the island) and the relatively high GNP per capita, contribute to the increased size of the road network. Nevertheless,maintenance of some low- traffic tertiary roads could probably be minimized without affecting the efficiency of the system. 2. The existing maintenance plan for the road network is based on quantity standards per km of roads. The plan takes into account the overlay works included in MCW's investmentplan which are based on economic returnswhich, in turn, are determined by traffic levels. However, the traffic level does not directly affect the quantity standardsper km, as specified in the plan, thus the recommended level of routine maintenance is insensitive to traffic levels. Obiective 3. To define a set of maintenance policies and a system by which each route is assigned a policy based on its physical condition and traffic level. Methodology 4. The consultantswill elaborate a matrix which will show the maintenance policy which is economically feasible based on two variables: traffic level(measured as number of standard axles) and road condition (measured according to an acceptable roughness index). This will be done as follows: (a) a set of maintenancealternatives will be defined by the consultant including (i) no maintenance; (ii) minimum routine meintenance (cuttinggrass, cleaning culverts,maintaining drains, etc.); (iii) minimum routine maintenance plus, patching (e.g. patching each year 50% of all pothole, 75%; and 100%); (iv) routine maintenance plus patching at 100% plus resealir.g(according to a benchmark to be establishedby the cor.sultants);and (iv) the preceding option plus periodic overlay; - 97 - ANNEX 5 Page 2 of 3 (b) using the Highway Design and Maintenance Model, or any other acceptable model, the consultants will recommend a maintenance strategy matrix for a model road section based on the traffic level and roughness condition. The consultants should develop several model matrixes based on criteria determined by different minimum economic rates of return (i.e. discount rates); (c) the total road network in Barbados should be divided into sections according to the features listed in the existing road inventorywith each section identified by traffic ar.droughness data; (d) using the above data, the consultants will assign each route a maintenance strategy and calculate annual maintenance cost for the total network for each model matrix (i.e. for each cutoff discount rate); (e) the consultants will then select the final matrix of maintenance strategies (and the implicit economic discount rate) by subjecting total maintenance cost to the existing budgetary constraints;and (f) finally, the consultantswill prepare a list of all road sections the and the recommendedmaintenance strategy highlightingon those where no maintenance is justified and those where only minimum maintenance is recommended. Schedule 5. The study should be carried out in about eight months as follows: (a) review of roughness and traffic data: 2 months (b) collection of HDM data: 2 months (c) model simulation and matrix preparation for draft report: 2 months (d) comments by MCW s month (e) final report with recommended strategy by route: 1 month 8 months Staff 6. It is estimated that about 3 months of a civil engineer's time and 10 months of transport economists' time will be required. Of the transport economists' input, about seven months will be provided by the chief economist/studydirector and three by an assistant economist/statistician. - 98 - ANNEXS Page 3 of 3 Facilities 7. The Ministry of Public Works, Communications and Transportation will provide the consultantswith offize space, office equipment (includingpersonal computers) and transportation. All other costs will be financed by the Second Road Maintenance and RehabilitationProject. Reports 8. A draft report will be prepared after four months and copies sent for comments to the Ministry of Public Works, Communicationsand Transportation(ten copies),Ministry of Finance and EconomicAffairs (five copies), CDB (two copies) and IBRD (two copies). The final report,includingthe comments received by the Government,will be completedwith 30 days of receipt of comments and sent, with the same number of copies, to the above-mentionedorganizations. Other 9. The Ministry of PublicWorks, Communicationsand Transportationwill assign a staff to work as counterpart with the consultants. In addition, the consultantswill give during their stay a two-week course explaining and training the maintenance management unit staff in use and application of the HDM model.
