Eac Regional Transport Strategy March 2011 East African Community Secretariat THE EAST AFRICAN TRADE AND TRANSPORT FACILITATION PROJECT EAST AFRICAN TRANSPORT STRATEGY AND REGIONAL ROAD SECTOR DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM FINAL REPORT PART II: EAC REGIONAL TRANSPORT STRATEGY MARCH 2011 Prepared By: Africon Ltd EAC Transport Strategy and Regional Roads Sector Development Program STRUCTURE OF DOCUMENT This report is made up of four parts: Part I provides the general background to the study. It reports on the analyses that are common to and form the foundation of the Transport Strategy and Roads Development Program, including the regional corridors, the economy and demography of the region, transport demand and transport modelling, and the principles for project identification and prioritisation. Part II (this document) is the Transport Strategy. It covers the policy/institutional arrangements in the transport sector in the EAC and its member countries. It then provides an overview of regional issues and identifies regional interventions in each of the transport modes, i.e. roads, rail, ports, pipelines, airports and border posts. It concludes by presenting the prioritised interventions together with an implementation approach. Part III is the Roads Development Program. It covers the regional roads network, and analyses roads needs from capacity and condition perspectives. It also develops some cross-cutting themes (regional roads classification system, regional roads management system and regional overload control). Regional roads projects are identified and described. Part IV is the list of transport projects, together with short profiles for the priority projects. Parts II and III are drafted so that they can be read stand-alone, i.e. in isolation of the other three parts.

  • Chapter 6: System Recommendations
    6. System Recommendations 6.1. Introduction This chapter builds on the findings of Chapter 5. System Performance by establishing future performance targets and making recommendations for South Dakota’s aviation system to achieve those future targets. This chapter is organized around the three system goals established at the beginning of the study and includes a review of each goal’s associated performance measures (PMs) to identify gaps in system performance. Performance gaps are determined by comparing the existing performance (presented in Chapter 5) to the future performance targets established by the South Dakota Department of Transportation Office of Aeronautics Services (SDDOT) and stakeholder groups to identify the number of airports, by state role and system-wide, that are not meeting each PM. Evaluating the existing performance against future performance targets provides a list of airports that are deficient in meeting the PM and therefore are candidates for system plan project recommendations. However, it is important to note that while these lists of airports by PM are helpful in understanding the system gaps, resources are limited and therefore an airport’s mention in this chapter is not a guarantee of project funding. For more information on SDSASP recommended projects, including anticipated costs and project priorities, see Chapter 7. System Needs and Project Costs. As a supplement to this recommendations chapter, Appendix E – NPIAS Analysis and Recommendations offers recommendations related to airport inclusion and exclusion from National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS) and changes to ASSET classifications for SDSASP airports. While this information does not pertain directly to the recommendations included in this chapter, it does provide additional context as it relates to system recommendations.
