Conservation works of three cultural heritage (CH) sites are under implementation and are expected to be completed by the end of 2018. In terms of implementation progress, technical design documents of almost all the physical investments have been completed. Out of the total 27 Bank- financed contracts, 14 have been procured and the rest are on track to be procured.

The contract on water body connection is under procurement. The bid of the largest contract on constructed wetland and embankment is expected to be published in May 2018. Under Component C of Transport Improvement, the successful installation of 28 bus stop kiosks and operation of the 30 clean-energy buses have doubled the ridership and improved satisfaction levels.
