Public Disclosure Authorized Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Program? Yes No Ghana Urban Transport Project (P092509) Global Environmental Objective (from Project Appraisal Document) The key objective is to: Promote a shift to more environmentally sustainable urban transport modes and encourage lower transport-related GHG emissions along the pilot BRT corridor in Accra.

The project was restructured in December 2012, following completion and confirmation of prior actions, as agreed with GoG. Subsequently, GoG (i) confirmed that the design review of Public Disclosure Copy the BRT works indicated that the available funds were insufficient to undertake Lot 2 of the BRT, (ii) proposed that the remaining funds under the GUTP be used for implementation of strengthened bus priority measures on the Amasaman - CBD route; (ii) confirmed that priority measures for the second route, the Adenta Corridor, will be completed under the Transport Sector Project (which has funds set aside for urban transport improvements). Higher quality bus services will be introduced on both the Amasaman and Adenta routes and improve mobility along these corridors. An interim planning and regulating entity, the pre-GAPTE (Greater Accra Public Transport Executive) unit is operational since last year. Some of the procurement tasks have progressed slower than planned due to the national elections and subsequent transition to a new government. The unforeseen delay in signing the documents for the Designated Account for MLGRD has somewhat pushed out the completion of procurement processes and these are now being expedited.
