The North Eastern Corridor Road Asset Management project (NECRAMP) – as this project is called, is an international trunk road and comprises the entire 340 km long A007 highway from Tororo via Mbale, Soroti, Dokolo and Lira to Kamdini. This corridor requires substantial improvement to meet the current and forecast traffic demand. A typical contract would include: a) required works to bring the selected road corridor to the predetermined level of service, which may include rehabilitation and upgrading works; b) the obligation to maintain the road corridor at the prescribed level of service, (iii) the obligation to carry out necessary additional periodic maintenance works (such as pavement overlay) during the life of the project; and (iv) to hand over the roads to the Government at a predetermined quality and level of service. This will be done under a “Design Build Operate Maintain and Transfer” (DBOMT). The duration of such contracts will be 10 years. The planned asset management contract for the 340 km long Tororo – Mbale – Soroti – Dokolo – Lira – Kamdini Road (A007) will comprise the following works: 1. Management Services 2. Routine and Recurrent Maintenance Works › Structure maintenance › Traffic safety maintenance › Minor rehabilitation works 1. Periodic Maintenance Works: Strengthening by approx. 35 – 95 mm asphalt concrete (AC) overlay of the various sections of the project road. NORTH EASTERN CORRIDOR ROAD ASSET MANAGEMENT PROJECT (NECRAMP) – TORORO-MBALE-SOROTI-KAMUDINI-LIRA (340KM) 2 2. Rehabilitation & Improvement Works: Possible Rehabilitation Works on Lot 1, such as improvement of cross drainage, depending on the actual works currently being implemented by the contractor (Dott Services). 3. Emergency Works The NECRAMP is different from the normal road construction projects as the Contractor will spear head its implementation processes including the preparation and implementation of the RAP (s). As a result, sufficient safeguards which include this Resettlement Policy Framework have been put in place as part of the mitigation process. The RPF is a guiding document for use by the contractor in preparing Resettlement Action Plans for individual sub-projects once their location and scope are known. The Contractor will prepare the action plans but an independent review and disclosure process will be conducted to assess the validity of the Resettlement action plans. Approach and Methodology used in Developing the RPF This RPF is basically the outcome of observations made along the Tororo, Mbale, Soroti, Lira - Kamdini Road as well as consultations made with key selected stakeholders. A transect drive was conducted to observe land use and property for households along the corridor. Some interviews were also conducted and literature review done particularly relating to the World Bank safeguards together with relevant policy and legal framework applicable within the Uganda context. Other methods used include Desk-based research; Site Visits throughout the Study Area to assess the current probable impacts. The primary method of consultation was through Key Informant Interviews conducted through unstructured questions The stakeholders consulted include road side traders UNRA Safeguards Team and District Officials. The stakeholders and community members were first informed and then given opportunity to raise their concerns regarding the NECRAMP and regarding probable environment and land requirements. Key Issues arising from the Stakeholder Consultation Several issues arose from the Stakeholder Consultation Process. A summary of main issues raised are highlighted below: 1. The needs for adequate and timely compensation for livelihoods and properties affected. 2. Safety of communities must be addressed especially at growth centres, road sections in proximity with schools, markets and health facilities found adjacent to the road corridor. 3. Borrow pits must be acquired at fair
