I. STRATEGIC CONTEXT

A. Country Context

1. The Kenyan economy witnessed low growth over 2008-2009, but expects stronger growth over the next decade. Growth fell from 7.1 percent in 2007 to 1.6 percent in 2008, due to the global financial crisis, post-election violence following the 2007 elections, the international food and fuel price increases, and an extended period of drought. During 2009-10, the economy rebounded, and it is expected to grow at five percent annually over 2010-2014 and beyond. In the near term, the government plans to continue deepening economic reforms. The service industry, including transport, is expected to continue to dominate the economy and earnings from exports are expected to recover, with the biggest proportion coming from the East African Community (EAC) and larger Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) markets.

2. Vision 2030, Kenya’s long term development plan, focuses on transforming Kenya from a low- to a middle-income country by 2030. Modern and efficient infrastructure facilities are required to support the achievement of Vision 2030, which calls for rehabilitating and upgrading the road and rail networks, improving urban public transport, and expanding access to electricity as well as safe water. The World Bank’s March 2010 Country Partnership Strategy (CPS), its 2008-09 Multi-Donor Infrastructure Diagnostic for Kenya, and its 2006 Poverty Assessment support this agenda, showing that improved infrastructure is associated with the movements out of poverty, and that with improved water supply and sanitation, it would dramatically improve human health, the environment, and the economy.

3. The governance record in Kenya is improving. Actionable Governance Indicators (AGIs), as provided in the World Governance Indicators1, indicate that Kenya scores well on microeconomic and budgetary management, citizen voice and accountability, public administration, regulatory quality, and revenue mobilization, but below the average for low- income countries and sub-Saharan Africa on the rule of law and control of corruption. Recently, there have been some changes that will improve these results: (a) a new Constitution was approved in August 2010, separating the powers of the executive, judiciary and legislature; subjecting the judiciary to a full review and renewal; and (in Chapter 6) significantly enhancing the integrity expectations of civil servants; (b) police reforms are underway, based on an independent review; and (c) key legislations to combat corruption, such as public officer ethics act, anti-money laundering law and an economic crimes act, have been endorsed by Parliament. Moreover, Kenya has leveraged technical assistance from the Bank’s Stolen Asset Recovery Initiative to overcome its obstacles to recovery of proceeds of corruption in the safe havens abroad.

B. Sectoral and Institutional Context

4. The transport sector in Kenya has comparatively better infrastructure, operators and services than other countries in the region but until recently the network has been neglected for years and managed by comparatively inefficient institutions. A draft national transport sector

1 Worldwide Governance Indicators (www.govindicators.org) 1

policy has been approved by Cabinet and sent to Parliament, and a road sub-sector policy was approved by Parliament in 2006. The national transport sector policy lays down modalities for connecting the large segments of Kenya’s population that are isolated in the rural areas and also supports government efforts to transform the economy from a producer of primary commodities and basic manufactures for domestic and regional consumption, to a more modern and diversified economy.

5. Kenya’s road sub-sector is relatively large, with a total classified network of 160,886 km (of which 11,197 km are paved and 149,689 km are gravel or earth) and over 60,000 km of unclassified community roads (with corridors typically less than nine meters wide). This provides a reasonable network of roads in the densely-populated parts of the country and some access throughout the rest. Unlike its neighbors, which have major areas without all-weather roads, the key challenge for Kenya is to bring the network in poor condition (56 percent) to good condition (currently just 11 percent), while ensuring that adequate maintenance is carried out on the rest.

6. Road transport carries about 93 percent of all freight and passenger traffic in Kenya, but costs are high. The road transport industry includes large companies and individual owner- operators; it is highly competitive and rates are determined by the market; the industry responds quickly to changes in demand, road conditions and regulations. Even so, weak legal and regulatory framework has impacted negatively on the quality and reliability of services and on safety to the users.

7. The railway system is inefficient and carries less than six percent of the traffic between Mombasa port and the hinterland. Kenya’s limited rail system, comprising 1,939 km, links the major population and production centers, provides access to the port of Mombasa, and (though narrow gauge) allows the use of standard locomotives with 18 ton axle-loads. However, poor maintenance and management over decades turned this major economic asset into a severe financial liability to the government and an impediment to regional economic growth.

8. Kenya’s major seaport, Mombasa, handled about 20 million tons of cargo in 2010. For many years, there has been limited investment in the port, which is now experiencing serious capacity constraints. In 2009, it handled 650,000 Twenty-Foot Equivalent Units (TEUs), compared to a design capacity of 250,000 TEUs annually leading to long delays and high handling costs. In addition to conventional and bulk liquid berths, the port has a dedicated container terminal with a 600-meter berth length. While Mombasa could provide international- quality services for the East African region and rapid transfers to/from the global shipping services, the repeated postponement of required investments is rapidly making the port a major infrastructure constraint in Kenya. While there have been improvements recently, a legacy of poor management and cumbersome procedures has added to the high level of congestion, high charges and slow services, all of which require immediate attention.

9. Air transport has become increasingly important to Kenya’s economy, as it sustains the tourist industry and has facilitated entry into the global fresh flower and horticulture markets. Fresh produce exports industry has shown that Kenya can develop world-class logistics chains, when given the opportunity and incentives. Kenya Airways has become a market leader in

2

Africa and Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) a regional hub. That said, the civil aviation infrastructure and aviation safety inspection capacity has not kept pace with the quality of the air transport services and JKIA is now facing serious capacity constraints (for instance, it handled over five million passengers in 2009, double its design capacity of 2.5 million).

10. The public sector owns, maintains and manages Kenya’s transport infrastructure and provides some transport services (the port and some railway), while the private sector provides most transport services (road passenger and freight transport, urban transport, air transport services, and some bulk cargo port services). Private sector participation has risen over time, due to the public sector’s decisions to withdraw from active participation in some areas or due to its failure to perform. All new road construction, rehabilitation and periodic maintenance works are contracted out; routine maintenance by force account is being phased-out; and the provision of airport cargo facilities is increasingly financed and managed by the private sector.

Key Development Issues

11. During the period 1984-2000, Kenya saw very little by way of development in the productive sectors and worse still, the transport sector remained mostly stagnant. The poor state of infrastructure in general, and transport infrastructure in particular, was commonly rated as a major constraint by investors (often one of the top three constraints). Roads were also rated as one of the major problems by the ordinary citizens, particularly those residing in the rural areas. The rural population felt isolated from economic opportunities as well as health, education and other social services.

12. The Kenyan press abounded with complaints regarding the state of the infrastructure, roads in particular, although the railways, aviation and the port of Mombasa were also subject to frequent criticisms. The complaints were raised by politicians as well as civil society and business interests. However, the complaints were not simply directed toward the infrastructure but also the misuse of resources, the corruption in the award of contracts, the corruption in the enforcement of axle-load controls, the poor quality work by contractors, etc. The fuel levy generated substantial funding but there was a general feeling that road users did not receive value for money.

13. The transport sector has experienced significant policy and institutional reform over the last five years, with assistance from the International Development Association (IDA) and other development partners. Over recent years, three new road authorities were created, Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA), Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KeRRA), and Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA), to separate policy formulation from execution of programs and provision of oversight and regulatory functions and to provide greater transparency and accountability in the use of allocated resources. New policies have been enacted. The fuel levy now funds road maintenance without interruption and across all parts of the country, and Kenya Roads Board now acts as the custodian of the Road Maintenance Levy Fund (RMLF) and manages and allocates these funds to the road implementing agencies. In addition, an inventory of the road network was completed to help clarify ownership, responsibilities and priorities in the sector. These and other reforms (detailed in Table 1) have resulted in readily-visible improvements in

3 road connectivity across Kenya, for instance on the Northern Corridor, which is the gateway from the port of Mombasa to Kenya’s interior and its landlocked neighbors to the east.

However, KCAA still faces the challenges in retaining skilled flight safety operational personnel; it requires restructuring, separating regulation of air navigation from its air traffic control services.

14. But challenges remain, including: the poor condition of much of the road network; periodic allegations of governance malpractices; public sector inefficiency; capacity constraints at airports and the seaport; weaknesses in aviation safety and security oversight; and poor road safety (see Table 2). In addition, following the August 2010 promulgation of the new constitution, which will devolve power to 47 counties, it will be necessary to determine whether, and if so how, rural and urban roads ownership will shift from the central government to the counties and municipalities. This project will facilitate a review of the options.

15. The Road Sector Investment Plan (RSIP) has been developed on the basis of economic justifications, using the Highway Development and Management Model (HDM-4) moderated to incorporate social and political considerations. Interventions in order of priority are for routine maintenance, periodic maintenance, rehabilitation, reconstruction, upgrading, expansion and development. Also included are interventions to deal with road safety, provision of non- motorized transport facilities, bypasses, and missing links in urban areas and bridges.

16. The RSIP consists of three Phases: Phase 1 (2010-14), Phase 2 (2015-19) and Phase 3 (2020-24) (see Table 4). Priority roads are identified on the basis of economic and social justifications for improvement, rehabilitation and maintenance. Phase 1 aims to maintain and improve 14,644 km of roads, involving: capacity improvements (dualling and additional lanes) of 182 km; construction of 173 km of new roads; rehabilitation of 3,425 km of paved roads; upgrading 4,004 km to bitumen standards; upgrading 1,486 km to Low Volume Seal Roads; routine maintenance of all road networks totaling 160,886 km; completing backlog maintenance on the paved class A, B, and C roads; and by 2014, reducing backlog maintenance on the paved

5

road network to KES46 billion. The development of the RSIP is a major step forward, as funds have been allocated to lower-priority roads in the past, while the core and strategic network was neglected. According to RSIP, about US$6.7 billion is required over the next five years (Phase 1), with the government of Kenya (GoK) contributing US$4.3 billion leaving a shortfall of US$2.4 billion and the GoK is exploring various options of filling the gap including mobilizing domestic resources such as infrastructure bonds. The details are contained in Annex 8.

17. While road construction and maintenance efforts have delivered mixed results in the past, there is significant improvement on policy and institutional reforms. In the past, inadequate funds were allocated for maintenance of heavily trafficked roads; variable contractor and supervision performance; unsatisfactory outcomes regarding cost control and cost effectiveness; over-commitment of available funding, such that contracts were awarded in excess of the budgetary availability leading to contractors not being paid in a timely manner; significant expenditure on interest and compensation for equipment idle time, arising from delayed payments to contractors. The situation has improved recently. In particular, Kenya Roads Board (KRB) distributes the RMLF in accordance with the Roads Act and on the basis of approved work programs and carries out financial and technical audits. The challenge now is to strengthen the capacities of the newly-established road authorities (KeNHA, KURA and KeRRA); establish and build the capacities of the National Construction Authority (NCA) and the Engineers’ Registration Board (ERB) to oversee the construction industry; address the backlog in rehabilitation and reconstruction; and strengthen the Ministry of Road’s (MoR’s) capacity for effective monitoring and evaluation of RSIP implementation. In this context, the road agencies will implement the RSIP through contracting out works, goods and services. Parliament has approved a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) policy for financing, managing and implementing public projects, and some components of RSIP will be delivered through PPP arrangements.

18. Kenya has three international airports—at Nairobi (JKIA), Mombasa (Moi International Airport - MIA), and . Domestic air services improved significantly after liberalization and the Civil Aviation industry remains vibrant under private sector operation. JKIA, Kenya’s main international airport, has become a regional hub, with connections to most of Africa and the world, and now operates above its design capacity, though the private sector has provided adequate cargo infrastructure. Capacity expansion at both JKIA and airport is moving forward with the support of European Investment Bank, French Development Agency and the World Bank under Northern Corridor Transport Improvement Project (NCTIP). Even so, the rapid increase in traffic levels is exerting further pressure on the planned expansions. For instance, while parking space for aircraft has increased by 50 percent at JKIA, more is required 6

to cater for airline expansion plans as well as growing cargo traffic. Meanwhile, the runway at MIA requires immediate rehabilitation to improve its condition. The Kenya Airports Authority (KAA), a parastatal, is responsible for managing Kenya’s airports, and Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA) is responsible for ensuring that the aviation safety and security in Kenya meet International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standards and, where applicable, International Aviation Safety Assessment (IASA) category 1 standards. Both KAA and KCAA face critical challenges and require considerable reforms and capacity improvements.

19. The demand for KAA services is growing rapidly (see Table 5). Kenya’s air transport services have outstripped those of many countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Passenger capacity constraints are growing serious, as traffic surged from 3.1 million passengers in 2002 to 5.1 million in 2009 (a 65 percent increase) against a design capacity of 2.5 million at JKIA. MIA, the second most important airport in Kenya, handling 1.1 million passengers and 60 percent of all tourist traffic in 2009, is also facing constraints; the runway is in poor condition and the power supply requires upgrading as it often fails, leading to flight cancellations. With rapid expansion, Kenya Airways is rivaling the services provided by major airlines in Africa notably South African Airways and Ethiopian Airlines. However, Kenya Airways cannot make direct flights to the United States (US) due to issues that are beyond the airport’s control. By contract, the private sector has added capacity to handle fresh produce exports out of JKIA, keeping pace with growing demand (263,000 tons in 2009 compared to 169,000 tons in 2002). KAA’s operational performance is shown in Table 5.

20. A master plan for developing Kenya’s airports is being prepared and will indicate KAA’s investment requirements. Working with the Public Private Infrastructure Advisory Facility (PPIAF), KAA plans to re-organize and restructure, as well as to expand the role of commercial finance in meeting its capital development requirements, including possible International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) enclave loans. A loss-making entity in 2002, KAA became profitable after a 2005 GoK decision to allow it to retain operational revenues. KAA’s Board is currently finalizing a proposal to re-organize and manage Kenya’s airports, including possibly scaling down the number of airports that will fall under its mandate and increasing the participation of the private sector in delivery and management of services.

21. As air traffic grows, KCAA’s mandate to provide regulatory, safety and security oversight of all aviation-industry stakeholders, consistent with international conventions and protocols, has become more demanding. In particular, KCAA is required to provide aviation navigation services and develop air traffic management systems to facilitate the safe movement of aircraft in Kenya’s airspace. The number of aircrafts registered in Kenya increased from 757 in 2002 to 1,015 in 2009 (up by 34 percent) while licensed aviation personnel (including pilots, cabin crew, and aircraft maintenance personnel) increased from 1,740 to 5,543 (a 219 percent increase). Because it can only provide relatively low remuneration packages, KCAA finds it difficult to recruit and retain qualified and experienced flight safety inspection personnel, and this in turn makes it difficult for it to provide effective oversight. To function as an autonomous regulator, KCAA needs to resolve potential conflicts of interest by moving the location of its headquarters out of KAA premises and by separating its responsibility to regulate air navigation services and management of the East African School of Aviation from its responsibility to provide such services. According to the strategic plan for KCAA, internal restructuring will be completed by December 31, 2012 and eventual separation of regulatory functions from service provision by December 31, 2014, thereby enabling KCAA to function as an autonomous regulator, and resolving potential conflicts of interest. In addition, KCAA needs to upgrade its air navigation systems. To date, it has harmonized and adopted aviation safety and security regulations within the EAC framework, including agreement on sharing resources, particularly flight safety inspectors. The EAC has established the Civil Aviation Safety Oversight Agency (CASOA) to facilitate this initiative.

22. KCAA is reforming to enable it to address these challenges. Its Board has approved a proposal to restructure it to create incentives for efficiency, enhance remuneration for flight safety operations staff, retrench 200 non-core staff (funded by GoK), and prepare the authority for separating service provision from regulatory and oversight functions over the next two-three years. Strengthening the regulatory function is key-aviation safety and security oversight capacity is currently inadequate. Enabling KCAA to obtain regulator status will also allow it to offer better remuneration to its staff than is currently possible. While KCAA is allowed to retain generated revenue, it is currently not generating enough to meet its growing needs, due to the low level of its current charges (among the lowest in the region); its net operating profit fell from KES384 million in 2002 to KES 197 million in 2009 (see Table 6). In this context, KCAA

8

has submitted a proposal to the Minister for Transport (MoT) to raise its user charges, without compromising the competiveness of Kenya as an aviation hub.

23. Kenya has operated railway services for over 100 years, and in the 1970s it carried 60 percent of long-distance freight across the country, but today it accounts for less than six percent. In 2006, the Kenya- was concessioned to a private sector operator, Rift Valley Railways (RVR), but the concessionaire failed to invest and services deteriorated further. Having carried 4.2 million tons annually on the Northern Corridor in the 1970s, today it carries about 1.2 million. Key factors contributing to underperformance include underinvestment in upgrading the lines, poor management structures, inadequate quality and quantity of rolling stock, and strong competition from the trucking industry. In 2010, the shareholding structure within the concession was changed and a new partner was introduced, with indications that a long-awaited injection of new capital would be forthcoming. With this combination of new management and new capital, the performance of the railway is expected to improve in the medium term, though it is likely to take many years before it is restored to its full potential.

24. The port of Mombasa is the main gateway to eastern Africa and possibly the single most important infrastructure asset in Kenya. Given that East African economies are expected to grow at about five percent per year, the port will have to handle much more traffic in the near future, but it is already operating at full capacity and inefficiently, resulting in high costs that negatively impact regional manufacturing and import-related activities. The use of off-port container storage facilities has somewhat eased congestion within the port itself, but clearing processes remain burdensome and the physical capacity of the port has not been improved. The GoK decided to transform Mombasa into a landlord port years ago, but has not implemented that decision—even though it is probably the most effective way to introduce efficiency improvements and attract resources for expansion. A decision to put berths 11 to 14 under private-sector management has met with local resistance and is pending re-engineering. As a consequence, the many external investors who have expressed interest in the port have largely stayed on the sidelines, awaiting clarity on the GoK’s preferred way forward.

Governance in the Transport Sector

25. Governance in the transport sector has been challenging, but significant improvements have been made over recent years. Risks include collusion and other forms of bid rigging, fraud during implementation, and corruption that allows overloaded vehicles to destroy the road infrastructure. To mitigate the risks and enhance professional integrity, the Bank and the GoK, with the Department of Institutional Integrity (INT) guidance, agreed on a Roads Sector Governance and Integrity Improvement Action Plan (GAP), which is being implemented under NCTIP (see Annex 7), and where appropriate adopted for the Kenya Transport Sector Support Project (KTSSP).

26. The GAP includes policy and institutional reforms that support the enhancement of transparency and accountability in the transport sector. For instance, in the aviation sub-sector, KAA and KCAA management both report to independent Boards; and MoR has been reformed to separate policy formulation from the execution of works, which has been transferred to the autonomous and independently managed KeNHA, KURA and KeRRA. In addition, KTSSP will

9

facilitate establishment of the proposed NCA (which will register contractors, monitor their performance and publish the names of poor performers and those that are debarred) as well as the ERB (which will register professionals and engineering firms, assess their qualities, monitor their performance, and exercise rights to sanction poor performance or unethical behavior); both bodies have been approved by Cabinet and await a parliamentary discussion. In parallel, road contractors have formed and registered a road-builders association, which is committed to self- regulation and oversight and which provides a common platform for dialogue with the government on construction issues.

27. The GAP also aims to prevent collusion, bid-rigging and other forms of corruption that have plagued past road construction efforts. To this end, road construction decisions are publicly reviewed and consulted; unconditional performance bonds are required as a standard; construction unit costs are more rigorously investigated and estimated; bids and qualifications are subject to much higher levels of scrutiny (e.g. the NCTIP road contracts); post-qualification has been used for large contracts; and an independent qualified procurement specialist, financed by the Bank, has reviewed NCTIP bids as received, to identify and address any major anomalies or “red flags”. Where red flags are found, project teams work more closely with INT and with the Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission (KACC) to determine their significance and an appropriate response. Through these and other measures, recent road construction contracts supported by the Bank have received more qualified bids as well as prices that are below or closer to Engineer’s estimates.

28. Work is also underway to enhance social accountability in the road sector. To enhance demand driven good governance, the Bank in collaboration with MoR is currently preparing to undertake, through the participation of selected Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), an independent audit of on-going and recently completed contracts and to conduct a first road user satisfaction survey (GAC Squad has provided some funding for piloting these tasks, as such funding has not yet been secured from other independent sources). A communication strategy as well as an internet-based complaint lodging system for all sectors has also been developed.

C. Rationale for Bank Involvement

29. KTSSP will help to implement and deepen transport sector reforms and investment plans that have been endorsed by the GoK and the EAC. Most policy and institutional reforms have entered critical stages of implementation. A key aim is to strengthen new institutions including KeNHA, KURA, KeRRA, and KCAA. Experience has shown that medium-term support is required to operationalize new institutions, build their capacity and equip them appropriately to discharge their duties and enable them to become effective. The KTSSP will also support the GoK to develop and manage the road sector, in accordance with the RSIP and the Kenya Roads Act 2007. TheGoK completed feasibility and detailed design and environmental and social impact assessments of the Kisumu- and Bachuma Gate-Maji ya Chumvi road sections in 2009-10, utilizing its own resources. In December 2010, KeNHA invited bids and received on March 10, 2011 for three contracts on the Kisumu-Kitale (147 km) road section, which serves one of the most densely-populated and high-poverty parts of Kenya. Rehabilitation of these road links is expected to reduce travel time on that road. Currently it takes five hours for a truck to cover the 147 km distance (at a cost of about US$2 per km). The rehabilitation will reduce travel

10

time by about 40 percent, to about three hours (and a cost of US$1.50 per km); it will also support to enhance food transport in this area, where availability is highly variable. In addition, further work on restoring the northern corridor road, in this case in the former , will contribute to reduce travel times on this vital artery into East Africa even more. Restoration to date has reduced travel time along the corridor by five hours between Mombasa and Timboroa, a distance of about 750 km. Further improvements in governance, accountability and transparency will also be supported, including: the establishment of the proposed NCA to regulate the conduct and development of contractors in Kenya; strengthening the ERB to regulate the conduct of engineers; restructuring KCAA to improve its regulatory function; strengthening the Kenya Maritime Authority to improve its oversight functions; facilitating the development of an urban transport strategy; establishing the Nairobi Metropolitan Transport Authority; and setting up a Maritime Search and Rescue Unit under MoT.

D. Higher-Level Objectives to which the Project Contributes

30. The proposed rehabilitation of road and airport infrastructure as well as support to the implementation of policy and institutional reforms and capacity-building under the project are consistent with Kenya’s Vision 2030 and the CPS. Modern and efficient infrastructure facilities are required to support the expansion of Kenya’s productive sectors. Under-investment in infrastructure development and maintenance has been identified as one of the main contributors to the high cost of doing business, undermining competitiveness and adversely affecting trade. The KTSSP will help to build the capacities of the recently-established transport sector institutions, (KeNHA, KeRRA, and KURA) and proposed new ones, including NCA and ERB, to enable them to handle their mandates effectively; and it will involve restructuring KCAA to address its challenge of ensuring it has adequate aviation safety oversight capability. Finally, it will support the implementation of Kenya’s 15-year RSIP, by financing critical priority road sections and addressing the capacity constraints at Kenya’s major airports.

II. PROJECT DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES

A. Project Development Objectives (PDO)

31. The Project Development Objectives are to: (a) increase the efficiency of road transport along the Northern Corridor and the Tanzania-Kenya-Sudan road corridor; (b) enhance aviation safety and security to meet international standards; and (c) improve the institutional arrangements and capacity in the transport sector.

11

1. Project Beneficiaries

32. This is a national project with regional dimensions. The improvement of parts of the northern corridor road (in the former Coast province) and of the Kisumu-Kitale road section that links Tanzania-Kenya-Sudan with branches to Uganda and Ethiopia will facilitate trade and regional integration, benefiting a large population in the project area, in Kenya and East Africa. These two road corridors serve high potential, productive and populous areas: in particular, the Tanzania-Kenya-Sudan road corridor serves about 19.8 million people in western Kenya, while the Northern Corridor traverses all parts of Kenya (except for the former North ), serving about 70 percent of Kenya’s population and businesses that contribute about 80 percent of gross domestic product (GDP). The Northern Corridor is also the main transport backbone for East Africa, linking Uganda, Tanzania, Sudan, Rwanda, Burundi and Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo to the port of Mombasa.

33. The main beneficiaries of the identified road improvements are the road users, including businesses, farmers, and local communities in the project area. Based on the current level of traffic, it is estimated that about 147,000 direct beneficiaries of which 40 percent are female (road users excluding bicycle riders) use these road sections per day, while about one million passengers of which 30 percent are female use MIA annually. The travel time from Kitale to Kisumu is expected to fall by 40 percent and vehicle operating costs is expected to be reduced by 25 percent with the proposed improvements, and the provision of road-side amenities, including bicycle tracks, pedestrian crossings, access roads to markets and public institutions along the selected road sections, and improvement of junctions will enhance road safety. In addition, the rehabilitation of the runway at MIA in Mombasa, which is the main gateway by air to Kenya’s Coastal region, will support the vital beach tourism sector in Kenya. Finally, building the capacities of the institutions in the transport sector will enhance the delivery of services to all Kenyans.

2. PDO Level Results Indicators

34. The PDO-level results indicators are as follows, with details in Annex 1:

(a) A reduction in travel time on the selected road sections; (b) A reduction in vehicle operating costs; (c) Kenya meets ICAO standards and recommended practices and KCAA is cleared for IASA Category 1 safety status; (d) Improved institutional arrangements and capacity in the transport sector; and (e) A reduction in road crashes along the Kisumu-Kitale road section.

III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

35. Project activities will support: (a) deepening of policy and institutional reforms in the transport sector; (b) enhancing the capacity of institutions providing oversight and regulatory functions to support the delivery of transport services; (c) supporting governance, accountability

12 and integrity improvements in transport sector; and (d) financing infrastructure improvements necessary to support Kenya’s long-term development strategy (see Annex 2 for details).

B. Project Financing

41. The Agence Francaise de developpement or French Development Agency (AFD) has confirmed to KAA, its willingness to provide partial financing for Component C of the project in a letter dated February 18, 2011 to the Managing Director and copied to the World Bank and European Investment Bank among others. Based on the experience under NCTIP, it is expected that the loan agreement between KAA and AFD would be concluded in about 12 months (by January 2012) once the KAA and the GoK agree on the proposed terms and conditions of the AFD financing. The European Investment Bank (EIB) has also expressed interest, though formal discussions have not commenced with KAA. IDA funds for Component C will finance the supervision costs and co-finance the rehabilitation works costs associated with the runway at MIA. The rest of the activities of Component C will be financed independently under parallel financing arrangements. Accordingly, no withdrawals shall be made against IDA funds towards the rehabilitation of the runway, apron and taxiways and installation of the ground airfield lighting system, at MIA, Mombasa unless and until: (a) the IDA will have received satisfactory evidence that the Co-financing Agreement between the French Development Agency (AFD) and the KAA has been executed; or (b) the GoK shall have identified alternative sources of financing

15

under terms acceptable to the IDA. If in the event KAA does not obtain suitable external financing, it will consider borrowing in the local capital markets or financing the balance from its own resources after increasing user charges as appropriate.

1. Lending Instrument

42. The lending instrument will be a Specific Investment Loan (SIL), chosen for this project because it will support rehabilitation of specific economic, social and institutional infrastructure. The activities against which funds are to be disbursed are well-defined and specific.

C. Lessons Learned and Reflected in the Project Design

43. Previous and current experience with projects in the transport sector and their implementation record in Kenya hold a number of useful lessons:

(a) The choice and design of project activities should reflect the intent, interests and priorities of the Government, potential beneficiaries and other stakeholders to ensure ownership. Under NCTIP, a GoK-established Inter-ministerial Committee steered the reform process well.

16

(b) Project preparation and implementation by entities responsible for the roads and aviation industries can help to integrate project activities within these organizations. Specifically, it is helpful for all implementing agencies to establish at the project preparation stage Project Implementation Teams (PITs) with the right skills mix, adequate experience and qualifications, and clear terms of reference (ToR). NCTIP benefited from this approach, which will be replicated in KTSSP. (c) Explicit provision of adequate domestic funding for maintenance must be made for project-financed infrastructure to ensure sustainability after project completion. KRB, which collects user RMLF, and manages a Road Fund dedicated to road maintenance, helps to ensure that this occurs. (d) Sustained project impact depends less on the physical works and more on well- managed and adequately financed executing agencies. The project needs to build capacity in project agencies that are weak; training by Bank staff in Bank procedures is crucial. (e) Sustained sector dialogue is required to define and implement the necessary policy, institutional, procurement and financial management reforms. Follow-up operations, appropriately timed, are required to bolster the gains from policy and institutional reforms that have been initiated under previous operations and require completion or enhancement. (f) Project preparation effort and project design need to reflect sustained dialogue between IDA and GoK, and implementation of reporting, auditing and accountability measures should begin early to ensure early detection and remedy of implementation problems.

IV. IMPLEMENTATION

A. Institutional and Implementation Arrangements

44. There will be five implementing agencies for KTSSP: KeNHA, MoR, MoT, KAA and KCAA. About 97 percent of the project will be implemented by parastatals (KeNHA, KAA, and KCAA) with independent Boards outside the central government; the remaining three percent by MoR and MoT. The project will be mainstreamed into the operations of these institutions and form an integral part of their investment program. All PITs will be comprised of regular staff of the implementing agencies. The project will be implemented as follows:

(a) Component A and Sub component B1: KeNHA (b) Sub component B2: MoR (c) Sub component B3: MoT (d) Component C: KAA (e) Component D: KCAA

45. Each implementing agency will appoint a PIT who will be empowered to manage the day-to-day activities of its components of the project. Each PIT will be headed by a Team Leader and will comprise members with the appropriate skills mix and adequate experience and qualifications. The Team Leader will report directly to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of

17

KeNHA, KAA and KCAA, or to the Permanent Secretary (PS) of MoR or MoT, as appropriate. The members of all PITs have already been appointed, and the World Bank will be consulted prior to any changes in PIT membership. PIT duties and responsibilities are elaborated in Annex 3.

46. There will be a Project Coordinator (PC) and Project Oversight Committee (POC). The PC, which will report to the PS, MoR, will be responsible for overall project reporting and coordination and will raise any issues that may hamper smooth preparation and implementation to the POC. The PC will be appointed by July 31, 2011. The POC will be responsible for steering, oversight and strategic guidance to project implementation, and will resolve bottlenecks particularly of a policy nature. MoR will be responsible for the appointment of the PC and provide the secretariat. The POC will comprise the PS, MoR; PS, MoT; CEOs of KeNHA, KAA, and KCAA; a representative of the MoF: and the PC. The PS, MoR, will chair the POC. The PC will be the Secretary to the POC (see Annex 3). MoR will have responsibility for driving the project, given that road related activities account for 80 percent of the total project scope. To assist in the restructuring of KCAA, an inter-ministerial taskforce will be formed to steer the process and will report to the POC.

B. Results Monitoring and Evaluation

47. The Operational Risk Assessment Framework (ORAF) will provide the basic tool for monitoring project performance, alongside the results framework and monitoring arrangements provided in Annex 3. The main outcome indicators will be the reduction of travel time and transport cost on the Northern Corridor and the Tanzania-Kenya-Sudan road corridor. Baseline information is already available. There are other performance and outcome indicators specifically related to the institutional reforms in the transport sector.

48. Results will be monitored by a team of experts from a public university under a contract with MoR but working in close collaboration with KeNHA, KCAA, KAA and MoT. The government has proposed to engage one of the public universities as the monitoring and evaluation (M&E) consultant. Under NCTIP, the GoK engaged the University of Nairobi (UoN) on a single source basis, with agreement of IDA, and the country has benefited enormously by assigning this task continuously to UoN. In the process of collecting and analyzing data, thirty- three students have utilized the information, produced theses and obtained or almost obtained Masters Degrees—with three among them candidates for Doctorate degrees. This work has helped to build local M&E capacity, provided an opportunity for continuity and sustainability in long-term monitoring of the results and their impact on the economy, and also strengthened the link between academia and the road construction industry—a link which is weak currently. KeNHA, KAA, MoR and KCAA have established M&E and Communications Units in their organizational structures, and these units work closely with UoN.

49. To supplement the M&E work, a Communication Strategy for the project has been prepared (see Annex 3). The execution of the strategy will be facilitated by a Communications Specialist from the Bank office in Nairobi, in conjunction with counterparts from KeNHA, KAA, KCAA, MoR, and MoT. To date, these communications teams have visited project sites, recorded interviews, collected baseline information, and initiated a dialogue with potential

18

beneficiaries. This will help the PITs to build in-house capacity to engage with the public and to design an engagement-feedback mechanism that will regularly disseminate information and progress to the public.

C. Sustainability

50. Project implementation is likely to be completed in a timely way. Many lessons have been learned from the on-going NCTIP, which faced numerous problems during implementation, including: teething problems and intensive training requirements of the newly established implementation teams, delayed payments, unexpected Detailed Implementation Review (DIR) by INT, post-election crisis and budgetary constraints. For KTSSP, the stakeholders, including counterpart project teams, have been involved upfront during project identification and preparation. The GoK is expected to provide counterpart funds on time, given the high priority and regional significance of the project’s road segments. The GoK has included the project in its fiscal budget and invested substantial amount of resources in carrying out preparatory work, including the feasibility studies, environmental and social assessments and detailed engineering designs for Bachuma Gate-Maji ya Chumvi and Kisumu-Kakamega-Kitale road sections and rehabilitation of the runway at MIA.

51. The benefits of the project are likely to be sustained in light of the recent reforms in the transport sector, which are showing encouraging results. KeNHA is now responsible for a road network of 13,687 km (nine percent of the network), which includes the KTSSP roads. KAA and the KCAA now retain user charges, which will allow them to continue to maintain the high standard of safety and security required for continuous growth in international air traffic. In addition, the activities of the project are mainstreamed within the operations of the respective organizations, and regular staff will be responsible for the day-to-day project management. The staff will also be trained under the project to ensure continuity and sustainability of project benefits.

VI. APPRAISAL SUMMARY

A. Economic and Financial Analysis

52. The various road sections to be rehabilitated or reconstructed under the project have been studied at a detailed design level. The total length of the major roads to be constructed, namely, Kisumu-Kakamega-Kitale, Athi River – Machakos Junction, and Bachuma Gate – Maji ya Chumvi, amount to about 250 km of two lane equivalent highway. The traffic levels range from about 1,200 vpd to over 8,000 vpd with one section (10 km) with nearly 13,000 vpd outside Kisumu requiring the addition of two new lanes. Given that the economic growth in the country has been in the range of five to seven percent per annum in the last five years and expected to grow between five and seven percent per annum in the future, the traffic volumes are likely to grow in the range of seven to ten percent per annum. However, for economic analysis, a more conservative assumption of traffic growth rates between four and ten percent per annum depending on the vehicle type have been assumed for the first ten years and 60 percent of the rates for the next 10 years. Economic feasibility studies have been done for every road section, albeit at different times. The economic rates of return (ERR) vary from about 20 to 63 percent and the estimated net present value (NPV) at a 12 percent discount rate is about US$60 million for road works costing about US$235 million (including supervision) - representing about 50 20

percent of the total project costs (see Annex 7). Sensitivity analysis shows that the ERRs for various road sections are robust, with worst case scenario of a 20 percent increase in costs plus 20 percent reduction in benefits leading to economic rates of return (ERRs) in the range of 15-50 percent and NPV of US$45 million.

53. Investments in the aviation sector are required mainly for rehabilitation of MIA’s runway. The investment cost is estimated at US$60 million, including supervision (representing another about 13 percent of total project costs). Based on the feasibility study updated in 2011, the economic rate of return is about 21 percent and estimated NPV of US$47.7 million at 12 percent discount rate (see Annex 7). Sensitivity analysis with a 25 percent increase in costs and 25 percent decrease in benefits, shows the ERR drop to 15.5 percent and NPV reducing to US$18.9 million. The analysis also shows that even with 25 percent increase in costs, the benefits would have to decrease by more than 45 percent to reduce the NPV to zero. B. Technical

54. The road design standards being applied under the project conform to the latest design practices. The standards and specifications compare well with international practice. Where traffic levels are expected to exceed the generally-accepted capacity of two-lane roads, those sections will be widened to four lanes (this will pertain to roads adjoining major towns such as Kisumu, Kakamega and Nairobi). With respect to the runway rehabilitation and extension, the minimum-acceptable and cost-effective designs have been adopted and brought into conformity to local architectural and building codes after comparing the economics of several options.

C. Financial Management

55. A financial management capacity assessment for all proposed implementing agencies has been done. It concluded that the financial management arrangements meet the Bank’s minimum requirements under OP/BP10.02. The overall residual risk rating is moderate (Medium-L) for KAA, KeNHA and KCAA, and substantial (Medium-I) for MoT and MoR. The project will have on-field supervision at least twice a year for components at substantial risk and once a year for components at moderate risk. The financial management action plan (Annex 3) outlines the mitigating measures which, if implemented, would strengthen the financial management arrangements. Accordingly MoT is expected to deploy an additional accountant to the MoT PIT by July 31, 2011. Each PIT will be responsible for the financial management of its respective components under the project, in accordance with guidelines acceptable to IDA. The PITs will oversee the special and project accounts, verify invoices and approve payments. The PITs will also prepare all financial management reports, financial statements, refund reimbursement requests and other relevant documentation as required by its respective management and IDA. The PITs will ensure that the respective agencies’ financial statements are audited as required and that contracting, procurement, disbursement and financial management is carried out and reported efficiently. Documentation supporting project-related disbursement and financial transactions would be maintained by each PIT for inspection by IDA, the GoK, and independent auditors (see Annex 3).

56. Special (Designated) Accounts, Operating Accounts, and Project Accounts: The GoK will establish five US dollar special accounts—one each for KeNHA, KAA, KCAA, MoR

21

and MoT—which will receive the proceeds of the Credit for their respective components. The special accounts would receive the dollar deposits/transfers from the IDA authorized credit account. Separate periodic financial reports will be prepared by each PIT. In addition, five local currency operating accounts would be opened, one each for KeNHA, KAA, KCAA, MoR and MoT. These will form the primary source of finance for project activities and will be managed directly by the respective implementing agencies. As the operating accounts will be denominated in the local currency, requirements for foreign currency payments will be met using the Payment Authority system, under which funds will be remitted by CBK on the instruction of the MoF. The GoK will also open a Project Account in local currency, where advance counterpart funding will be deposited for the specific needs of Component A and Sub- component B1 (managed by KeNHA). KeNHA, KAA and KCAA will be responsible for processing of payments directly through MoF and providing copies of the documentation to their respective parent ministries. 57. Counterpart Funds: The government will cover 25 percent of civil works, and two percent for consulting services and goods acquisition costs. The counterpart requirements will be deposited in the project account quarterly and at the beginning to cover the requirement for that period. The total estimated government contribution, excluding KAA and KCAA contributions, over the five year implementation period is about KES5.7 billion (or an average annual contribution of KES1.14 billion) which means an initial deposit to cover one quarter will amount to about KES285 million.

58. Disbursements: The direct payment method will be used for large contracts. In addition, special commitments and reimbursement methods of disbursements can be used by the project. The transaction-based method will be the mode of payment for the designated accounts.

59. Project Auditing: The Auditor General of the Kenya National Audit Office (KENAO) will be responsible for auditing the entire project including resources of KAA, KeNHA and KCAA on annual basis during the life of the project.

60. Subsidiary Agreements: KAA and KCAA would be required to enter into subsidiary loan agreements for the funds that will be made available to finance airport and civil aviation related activities, in accordance with prevailing government practice. The GoK will make part of the proceeds of the credit available to KeNHA as a grant under a Subsidiary Grant Agreement.

61. Taxes and Duties: In general, the project expenditures are not exempt from payment of value added tax (VAT). However, for fiscal convenience, implementing agencies will be exempt from paying VAT and duties under the project. In case of works and other supply contracts, contractors/suppliers will be eligible for refund of the 16 percent VAT paid on inputs should they have no VAT receipts on outputs, and therefore bidders shall not include VAT as a cost in the bid prices. However, the bid prices will include all other indirect taxes and duties on all materials and services that may be incurred for the matter of the contract, including for supply of goods, either available locally or manufactured or assembled in Kenya, including those originally imported.

62. Retroactive financing: The procurement process is advanced with major road contracts let out for bidding. Bids for three road contracts with an estimated value of US$144 million

22 were received on March 10, 2011. The credit will provide for US$15 million retroactive financing to finance expenditures incurred before signing of the financing agreement (expected by July 31, 2011), but after September 30, 2010.

D. Procurement

63. The proposed implementing agencies are currently executing the NCTIP (which has total financing of about US$1.0 billion), and the same PITs of NCTIP will be responsible for the implementation of KTSSP. Procurement Risk Assessment was carried out during appraisal (February 2011) on all the five implementing agencies and the overall procurement risk is rated moderate. The technical staff in the PITs of the five project implementation agencies are qualified and experienced in the procurement procedures of Development Partners. The PITs of KeNHA, KAA, KCAA, MoR and MoT will manage their procurement activities. Procurement plans for the first 18 months have been prepared and reviewed by the World Bank, and these will be updated at least annually. Procurement risk is rated as moderate. A first General Procurement Notice (GPN) for the project was published in the DgMarket website in September 2010; the GPN will be updated annually for any outstanding International Competitive Bidding (ICB) and large consultancy services contracts, as appropriate. Specific Procurement Notices (SPN) for goods and works to be procured under ICB and National Competitive Bidding (NCB) and for consultant services will be advertised in at least one national newspaper of wide circulation and internationally for ICB contracts. The GAP-procurement related aspects will be adopted for the project, such as invitation of bids (works) without prequalification, stringent due diligence of contractors, among others.

64. Procurement will be carried out in accordance with the World Bank’s Guidelines, including particularly, Guidelines: Procurement under IBRD Loans and IDA Credits, dated May 2004 and revised October 2006 and May 2010; and Guidelines: Selection and Employment of Consultants by World Bank Borrowers, dated May 2004 and revised October 2006 and May 2010. In addition, Kenya has a public procurement law, the Public Procurement and Disposal Act of 2005 (PPDA), that governs purchase of works, goods and services using public resources by central government entities, local authorities, state corporations, education institutions, and other government institutions. Under the PPDA, the Public Procurement Oversight Authority (PPOA) has been established in addition to the Procurement Department in the MoF. The PPDA sets out the rules and procedures of public procurement and provides a mechanism for enforcement of the law. Some provisions of PPDA are not fully consistent with the World Bank procurement guidelines and Consultants Guidelines, and therefore these may not be applied for the implementation of this project without the modifications specified in the Financing Agreement (see Annex 3). “Anti-Corruption Guidelines” means the “Guidelines on Preventing and Combating Fraud and Corruption in Projects Financed by IBRD Loans and IDA Credits and Grants”, dated October 15, 2006 and revised in January 2011, shall apply.

65. Procurement methods to be applied to all project goods and works will be specified in the Procurement Plan, including the circumstances under which the methods may be used. The methods will include ICB, Limited International Bidding (LIB), NCB, Shopping, and Direct Contracting. In case of consulting services, the methods will include Quality and Cost Based Selection (QCBS), selection under Fixed Budget, Consultants Qualifications, Least Cost

23

Selection, Single Source Selection, and Selection of Individual Consultants, consistent with procedures provided in paragraphs 5.2 and 5.3 of the Consultant Guidelines. World Bank review of procurement decisions will be provided in the Plan for those contracts that shall be subject to Prior Review. 66. Training: Each of the implementing agencies will prepare and submit to the POC their respective annual training program for financing under the project for endorsement before submitting to the Bank for review and clearance. The program will identify, inter alia: (a) the training envisaged, (b) the personnel to be trained, (c) the selection methods of institutions or individuals conducting such training, (d) the institutions conducting the training (if already selected), (e) the duration of the proposed training, and (f) the cost estimate of the training. Report by the trainee upon completion of training would be mandatory. E. Social (including safeguards)2

67. The project will address the social impacts of resettlement and loss of property, HIV/AIDS transmission along the road corridors, road safety, and overall participation of key stakeholders in this project. Potential social impacts include permanent and/or temporary land acquisition, the disturbance of landscapes and of roadside vendors, and in a very few cases loss of property. The Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) approved by the World Bank in March 2004 for NCTIP has been updated, to cover the road sections and construction of two office blocks and a hangar at JKIA proposed for financing under KTSSP. The RPF provides and clarifies the key principles underlying mitigation and compensation to those who might be affected adversely by relocation or loss of property due to the road works. In particular, it outlines how project affected persons (PAPs) will be compensated for loss of wages and assets (at replacement costs) and be given the opportunity to share project benefits. All identified cases of relocation enumerated in the Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) will receive assistance on resettlement. Bidding documents for all civil works will be based on the Bank models and will include the necessary provisions for temporary resettlement. All six RAPs associated with the project including for the rehabilitation of Kisumu-Kakamega; Kakamega-; Webuye- Kitale; Athi River-Machakos Turn off; and Bachuma Gate-Maji Ya Chumvi, and the RPF, have been disclosed to the public, both in country and at the Bank’s InfoShop.

68. In addition to the above measures, the project has a roadside amenities and social and economic enhancement sub component (including HIV/AIDS mitigation) to support improvement of livelihoods of the communities along the road corridors. The sub component will spur social and economic activities that will benefit local communities as well. The project also presents opportunities for local communities to be involved in road works through provision of manual and skilled labor where appropriate, and especially when the construction commences (see Annex 3).

69. The project will also address road safety issues. Road safety is a major concern in Kenya, where road accidents claim a total of nearly 3,000 lives annually. KTSSP will

2 The Safeguard Instruments employed for social safeguard compliance under this project are comprised of: (a) a Resettlement Policy Framework; and (b) the Resettlement Action Plans for the Rehabilitation of Kisumu-Kakamega Road; Rehabilitation of Kakamega-Webuye Road; Rehabilitation of Webuye-Kitale Road; Rehabilitation of Maji ya Chumvi-Bachuma Gate; and the Construction of two new lanes along Athi River and Machakos Turn off Road.

24

complement efforts under NCTIP, where a National Road Safety program has been developed and is under implementation. Under KTSSP, attention will be given to increasing awareness of road safety through information provision along the selected road corridors. Project design will include widening the existing road in critical places to allow for bicycle paths and pedestrian sidewalks to enhance safety in selected areas.

F. Environment (including safeguards)3

70. The project is rated category B for environment as most of the project financed activities either have moderate impacts or involve the rehabilitation of existing infrastructure. Potential environmental impacts may include soil erosion and disturbance of water flows, water pollution, traffic disruption, noise, gaseous and dust pollution and disturbance of flora and fauna (see Annex 3). Environmental assessments (EA) for the five road sections and for the rehabilitation of MIA’s runway have been reviewed by the World Bank and found to be acceptable. The Environmental Management Plans (EMPs) consistent with Kenyan law will apply to constructing the proposed office blocks and hangar, since impacts are localized. All EAs and EMPs have been disclosed to the public, both in country and at the Bank’s InfoShop. Any other infrastructure rehabilitation or works that will take place during project implementation that has not already been subjected to an environmental and social impact assessment will be subject to the same safeguard policies and procedures, which include all relevant safeguard instruments to be prepared, approved and disclosed prior to execution of works. KeNHA and KAA have staff with adequate experience and qualification to manage environmental matters associated with their infrastructure rehabilitation components.

71. In the case of road rehabilitation, OP 4.11 (Physical Cultural Resources) is being triggered. Guidelines for “chance finds” procedure will be integrated into the contracts for construction. These include development of a cultural property management plan (CPMP) if physical cultural resources are found.

3 The Safeguard Instruments employed for environmental safeguard compliance under this project are comprised of: (a) The Environmental Impact Assessments for the Rehabilitation of Kisumu-Kakamega Road; Rehabilitation of Kakamega-Webuye Road; Rehabilitation of Webuye-Kitale Road; Rehabilitation of Maji ya Chumvi-Bachuma Gate Road; Rehabilitation of the runway at Moi Airport, Mombasa; Construction of two new lanes along Athi River and Machakos Turnoff Road; and Construction of four Interchanges at Nakuru/Nyahururu, Nakuru/Njoro, Mau Summit/Kisumu and Ahero/Kisii; and (b) the Environmental Management Plans for the Construction of Hangar at JKIA for Air Accident Investigations; Construction of an Office Block at JKIA for KCAA Headquarters; and the Construction at JKIA of an Office Block for road sub-sector institutions including KENHA.

Annex 2: Detailed Project Description

KENYA: Transport Sector Support Project

I. Project Components

1. The Project Development Objectives are to: (a) increase efficiency of road transport along the Northern Corridor and the Tanzania-Kenya-Sudan road corridor; (b) enhance aviation safety and security to meet international standards; and (c) improve the institutional arrangements and capacity in the transport sector.

2. The selected activities of the project will support: (a) deepening of policy and institutional reforms in the transport sector; (b) enhancing the capacity of institutions providing oversight and regulatory functions to support the delivery of transport services; (c) governance, accountability and integrity improvements in transport sector; and (d) financing infrastructure improvements necessary to support Kenya’s long-term development strategy. The project underpins these policy and institutional reforms and priority investments identified by the government of Kenya (GoK) for implementation. The project will comprise four components:

(a) Component A: Rehabilitation and improvement of roads, roadside facilities and road safety interventions. (b) Component B: Institutional strengthening and capacity building in the transport sector, with three sub components: (i) Sub Component B.1: Support to Kenya National Highway Authority (KeNHA), Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA), and Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KeRRA); ; (ii) Sub component B.2: Support to the Kenya Roads Board (KRB) and Ministry of Roads (MoR); and (iii) Subcomponent B.3: Support to the Ministry of Transport (MoT). (c) Component C: Support to the Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) (d) Component D: Support to the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA)

3. Background on road sub sector components: The road sub sector has undergone significant transformation over the last six years which includes institutional and policy reforms, mobilization of domestic resources for infrastructure and management improvement, separation of policy formulation and financing from execution of programs. These changed circumstances demand that the necessary regulatory and oversight mechanisms are established and strengthened. These changes are recent and close monitoring and support is required to consolidate and deepen these gains. These and other reforms (detailed in Table 1 of the main text) have contributed to the noticeable improvements in the condition of the road network in Kenya including on the major road corridors such as the Northern Corridor. A number of areas remain either incomplete or require support to move to the next level, as discussed below:

(a) The Kenya Roads Board: the creation of the KRB is one of the major changes in the road sub sector. This has been supplemented by:

30

(i) the development of the 15-year Road Sector Investment Program (RSIP) with clear road investment priorities based on economic, social and political considerations. Its implementation would be a major success in the road sector as it is designed to address road transport needs; (ii) the clear division of responsibilities and ownership of the road network with the creation of KeNHA, KeRRA and KURA – separating policy from execution; (iii) requiring realistic and prioritized work programs from road authorities, based on the RSIP; (iv) monitoring financial and technical compliance through external auditing; and (v) ensuring transparency through the publication of all work programs and audit reports.

(b) Assured Road Maintenance Funding from the Road Maintenance Levy Fund (RMLF): the level and regular flow of road maintenance funding in Kenya is a major achievement. While the present level of funding may not be sufficient to meet all maintenance needs, the equivalent of US$300 million annually should provide the basis for meeting most of the maintenance requirements of the network, if targeted appropriately, especially if there is additional substantial funding for the rehabilitation of the network.

(c) Decentralization of Funds, Decision Making and Implementation: the role and composition of Constituency Roads Committees (CRCs) may not be ideal, but they have introduced an important level of local decision making, monitoring and accountability for local roads which was clearly lacking. Like the KRB, the CRCs have the potential to play a key role in the revitalization of the sector at the local level. However, unless CRCs’ responsibilities and perceived ownership can be better aligned, critical constraints and discontinuities will become increasingly evident and prevent the introduction and implementation of RSIP. Nevertheless, one major advantage of incorporating Members of Parliament into the system, through the CRCs, is that it has created a powerful constituency to ensure that the level and flow of fuel levy funds is not disturbed by financial problems elsewhere in the public sector. The expectation is that with the new constitution and devolution of power to the counties, this will significantly improve.

(d) Rural Roads Strategy and Labor Based Technology: Kenya adopted the Roads 2000 approach for the rehabilitation and maintenance of the rural road network over 10 years ago. This is an eminently rational response to the needs of the rural sector within Kenya’s financial constraints and resource endowment. It adopts a network approach, at relatively low cost, to providing the roads required for agricultural development and access for the rural population to social and economic infrastructure as well as income generating opportunities. Moreover, the approach has the potential directly to generate substantial levels of paid employment in areas where income earning possibilities are limited. The creation of KeRRA has seen more emphasis placed on the implementation of this strategy than before. Labor-based road works need not, however, be confined to the rural environment. The hand pitching of stones as the base course on urban roads has proved extremely successful in Nairobi.

(e) The stock of Engineers in both Public and Private Sectors: Kenya has a stock of engineers who are as well qualified and experienced as those to be found anywhere else. The engineers know what should be done and what they should be doing. However, for some time now, there has been inadequate training. Further training may help introduce new ideas regarding road management, contract formulation and control, complemented by re-oriented systems, incentives and sanctions.

(f) Significant Construction and Consulting Sectors: Unlike its neighbors, Kenya has significant local construction and consulting sectors able to undertake substantial engineering works. Performance by the local industry can be extremely good and equivalent to that by any international contractor or consultant. Similarly, at the local level, there is no significant shortage, in most districts, of small contractors willing to undertake road works, nor does there appear to be any difficulty in sourcing equipment from the private sector when required. Kenya has a relatively large and dynamic private sector which has demonstrated its ability to respond positively to new opportunities. These elements could form the basis for not only much greater involvement of the private sector in the management and maintenance of the assets in the transport sector, at both the national and local levels but also justifying the need for a strong and effective regulatory and oversight framework.

(g) Axle-Load Control: Kenya has demonstrated that axle-load control can be effective, and an immediate reduction in overloading was achieved when four axle configuration trucks were banned from Kenyan roads. Empowering the user to participate in ensuring non-discriminatory control would be a major step and prove very effective. Enforcement is by no means perfect, and monitoring by the private sector should be deepened as there are signs that most of the gross overloading has been reduced with the involvement of private sector operators in the management of four weighbridges.

(h) Inadequate Capital Funding: The fuel levy provides a reasonable flow of funds but, quite visibly to any road user, major capital funding is also required to rehabilitate or reconstruct large parts of a deteriorated road network. The volume of major capital works declined during the late 1980s and 1990s partly because available funding from external sources declined significantly. During this period, there was minimal capital funding, the Fuel Levy was practically the sole source for all road activities - both capital and recurrent. The consequences of this lack of capital funding were:

(i) funds were diverted from recurrent to capital works, thus providing inadequate funding for maintenance with consequent additional capital requirements in the future; and (ii) funds diverted for capital works were inadequate for full remedial works and the interventions therefore insufficient to remedy the underlying structural defects. Under this scenario, often the objective is to hold the road together until more substantial funding is available. Though rational under the circumstances, the benefits of the interventions are relatively short-lived and achieved at high cost.

32

(i) Road Sector Investment Plan (RISP): The project will support the implementation of the RSIP. The RSIP contains a list of priority key roads identified on the basis of economic and social justification for improvement, rehabilitation and maintenance. According to the program, about US$6.7 billion is required over the next five years out of which GoK is committed to provide about US$5 billion and the balance arranged from external or alternative local sources. Priority setting is a major step forward and will ensure that the core and strategic network receives attention over less non-core roads. This will be a major shift in allocating resources in the road sub sector. It will restore and mainstream the planning and setting of priorities for the use of scarce resources available in the sub sector. It will also support the implementation of the Kenya Roads Act (2007).

(j) Absence of Management and Planning Systems: It is evident that all management information and planning systems have been inadequate, in some of the agencies. In the past, systems have been established but they were not functioning well. Perhaps they were overwhelmed over time as the network grew. Timely production of management and other reports is still a challenge. Management information systems are required for systematic management and monitoring. With the adoption of the RSIP and steady flow of funds from KRB, forward maintenance management is inevitable. A reactive firefighting approach to management of the sub sector has to be eliminated consistent with the Kenya Roads Act (2007). The KRB is required, under the Act, to monitor the use of the RMLF while the road authorities need to implement detailed workplans. This will necessarily require a reliable and efficient management and information system. Such a system must encompass KRB, MoR, and other road institutions.

(k) Inadequate Financial Control: The adoption of RSIP will also help address instances where works were initiated without sufficient regard for the level of funding available. The delays in payments to contractors, downtime of equipment, suspension of works, interest charges witnessed in the past is gradually being addressed by embracing adequate financial systems. Otherwise, without such controls, there will be no safeguard against a repetition of the over-commitment. However, this is not unique to the road sub sector but it covers overall government budget administration.

(l) Perceptions in Kenya regarding the construction industry and level of Supervision: The perception of the public regarding the performance of the road sub sector has improved significantly lately. In the past, there has been a widespread perception within Kenya that the road problem is not a shortage of funds alone but also a problem of contractors and engineers not adhering to professionalism on contracts. Complaints were abundant about roads failing well before their expected design life and poorly performing contractors continuing to be awarded contracts with no-one being held accountable for inadequate supervision. It is extremely difficult to gauge precisely the extent of poor performance, malpractice and corrupt practice in the sector. Not all road failures can be attributed to the contractors and supervising engineers, poor designs have also played a part. Inadequate and ineffective supervision cannot only be attributed to engineers in the public sector, there are plenty of reports regarding poorly performing consultants. The real issues lie in accountability. It is expected that with the establishment of the NCA and strengthening of ERB under the project this challenge will be addressed.

33

(m) Non-Enforcement of Traffic Regulations: the enforcement of axle-load regulations may be having an impact, but the effective enforcement of other traffic regulations needs improvement. There are a number of traffic enforcement agents but insignificant traffic enforcement is evident. With no effective enforcement of vehicle condition standards, vehicle speeds, or observing other traffic regulations, the high number of road fatalities and injuries annually is inevitable. Road safety issues are a major concern in Kenya with over 3,000 deaths annually. Attention should be given to increasing awareness of road safety through information provision and education of adults as well as children along the selected road corridors, including widening of the existing road in critical places to allow for bicycle paths and pedestrian sidewalks to enhance safety.

(n) Human Immunodeficiency Virus/Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (HIV/AIDS) presents a major social issue in Kenya today, and all interventions are carried out within the framework of the National Kenya Government HIV/AIDS Strategic Plan under the National HIV/AIDS Control Council. In case of road transport, the specific interventions target the road users and the local communities along the corridors who are in constant danger particularly in the rest stop areas. These among other interventions will be incorporated under the project.

4. On the basis of this background, the details of the road sub sector components are:

Component A: Rehabilitation and Improvement of roads, roadside facilities and road safety Interventions (Total US$264.85 million of which IDA US$201.44 million)

5. The selected road sections are amongst the top priorities in the RSIP. The Kisumu- Kakamega-Webuye road section traverses the Western Region in Kenya which borders Tanzania to the south, Uganda to the west and Sudan and Ethiopia to the north. This road section cuts across, the former Nyanza and Western and parts of the Rift Valley provinces. Western Kenya includes the most populous parts of Kenya. These three former provinces have a population of about 20 million according to the 2009 Census. The region is endowed with great potential in agriculture, fisheries and water related resources, and tourism - but has recorded only modest economic growth over the last 20 years. It remains one of the poorest and least integrated regions of Kenya. The main road network in the region is in poor condition. Movement of goods and people is constrained by the poor condition of the roads. The primary road corridor in Western Kenya runs from Isebania (on Kenya-Tanzania border in the south) through Kisii, Kisumu, Kakamega, Webuye, Kitale and to Nadapal on the Kenya-Sudan border in the north. This road section is part of the East African Road Network Corridor (Corridor No.3) that runs from Mwanza in Tanzania, around Lake Victoria through Kisumu, Kakamega, Kitale and Nadapal to Juba in South Sudan. Improvement of this road corridor has been identified also as a high priority by the East Africa Community.

6. Most of this road corridor (95 percent) is in poor condition with the section between Kisumu and Kitale in a situation of total disrepair. Kisumu is an inland port and also the main industrial town in the region. Manufactured goods from the few industrial towns in the region e.g. Kisumu and Eldoret, though mainly sold in the local market, are also exported to Uganda, Northern Tanzania and Southern Sudan. The road links between Kisumu and other major towns

34

in the region including Kakamega, Kisii, Webuye, Eldoret, Kitale and Busia among others, are also in poor condition which has impeded access to intra and inter regional markets and resulted in the under development of this region. Due to the poor state of the road, it takes over five hours to travel from Kisumu to Kitale, a distance of about 147 km.

7. The GoK is carrying out improvements on the Northern Corridor road with the support of the European Union (EU), Nordic Development Fund and the World Bank. Most of the corridor is now in good condition except for a few sections some of them including Maji ya Chumvi- Bachuma Gate, construction of second carriageway between Athi River-Machakos Turnoff (are proposed for inclusion under this project). In addition traffic levels on some sections of the corridor have increased dramatically and their improvement is imperative. Some junctions have become a major bottleneck to the flow of traffic and worsened road safety standards and requires attention

Photos: Sections of the Kisumu-Kakamega-Webuye-Kitale road are full of potholes and shoulders have been completely worn out, making motoring dangerous and a nightmare.

8. This component will comprise:

(a) Rehabilitating the Kisumu-Kitale section (147 km of which 10 km is to have a dual carriageway) of the Tanzania-Kenya-Sudan road corridor by strengthening and widening the carriageway and constructing service roads and non-motorized traffic facilities at market centers to improve road safety; (b) Constructing a second carriageway on Athi River-Machakos road section (21 km) on the Northern Corridor as well as service roads (originally to be done under NCTIP but dropped due to inadequate funds and later shifted under the proposed Nairobi Urban Toll, which did not materialize); (c) Rehabilitating the Maji ya Chumvi–Bachuma Gate road section (53 km) on the Northern Corridor, including strengthening and widening of the existing road carriageway, provision of service roads and non-motorized traffic facilities; (d) Constructing the four interchanges at Nakuru-Nyahururu turnoff; Nakuru-Njoro turnoff; Mau Summit-Kisumu turnoff and Ahero-Kisii Turnoff; and (e) Supervising the construction works.

9. The rehabilitation works will include: (a) widening of the road carriageway to seven meters with two meters wide shoulders on both sides, including climbing lanes in those sections

35

of the road that have hilly terrain; (b) construction of facilities for socio-economic enhancement and roadside amenities including lorry and bus parking, seasonal markets, and road-user services; (c) enhancement of road safety through improvement of hazardous locations and major junctions, traffic calming measures, pedestrian crossings, and so forth; (d) provision of measures to address HIV/AIDS; and (e) access roads to public facilities.

Component B: Institutional strengthening and capacity building in the transport sector. (Total US$69.70 million of which IDA US$62.48 million)

10. Major reforms have been witnessed in the management and delivery of road infrastructure in the country. For instance, the policy and institutional reforms have resulted in more clarity with regard to ownership of the road network. In addition, there is a separation of policy formulation from execution of works, which was lacking. There is now greater attention paid to all the three categories of roads (national, rural and urban). As reported in the newspapers, the public for once, has commended the improvement of roads being seen in the country.

11. The challenge is to strengthen the capacities of the newly established road authorities (KeNHA, KURA and KeRRA) and support the establishment and capacity building of NCA and ERB that will provide the much needed oversight in the Kenyan construction industry. Furthermore, devolution of power to counties is likely to have an impact on how the ownership of the three categories of roads namely, national, rural and urban will be distributed. Most likely KeNHA, in charge of national roads, will remain a national body under Ministry of Roads, while KRB, will also remain a national body with the overall responsibility of managing the RMLF. The study on the role of the MoR and its institutions in the new constitution dispensation, under the project, will recommend in which ministry(ies) KURA, and KeRRA will fall.

12. Similarly, the Kenya Maritime Authority (KMA) has been established recently. The Northern Corridor Transport Improvement Project (NCTIP) supported part of the startup activities including consulting services in the drafting of the rules and regulations for its oversight function particularly those related to the Shipping Merchant Act of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and International Ship and Port Facility Security code (ISPS). The KMA now enters a critical stage of exercising its mandate which requires that it be well equipped and enhanced in its capacity to carry out its mandate.

13. This component will comprise three sub components:

Sub Component B-1: Support to KeNHA, KURA and KeRRA (Total US$41.70 million of which IDA US$36.47 million) involving: (a) Strengthening of various institutions including KeNHA, KURA and KeRRA, through acquisition of equipment, vehicles, modernization of management information systems, financial planning, contract management and related operational capacities, to enhance delivery of services; (b) Training of road-sector manpower, particularly in areas related to management information systems and private sector participation in service delivery;

36

(c) Construction of a single office block for the headquarters of road sub sector institutions including KeNHA, KeRRA, KURA, ERB, KRB and the proposed NCA and provision of services to supervise the construction works; (d) Carrying out feasibility and detailed engineering designs and studies for developing and managing the road network, including particularly: (i) the Mombasa Western By-pass; (ii) conversion of the Northern Corridor Road into a multi-lane facility; (iii) the Nakuru- Loruk-Marich Pass; (iv) the Lake Victoria ring-road; (v) the Ahero-Kisii-Isebania road- segment; (vi) the Nakuru-Nyahururu-Nyeri road segment; (vii) the Kisian-Busia road segment; and (viii) Malindi-Garsen-Madogo-Garissa road segment; and (e) Marking the boundaries of the right of way to secure KeNHA’s road assets.

Sub component B-2: Support to the KRB and MoR (Total US$8.90 million of which IDA US$8.54 million). This will involve: (a) Study of the impact of the new constitution on the responsibilities and functioning of KeNHA, KeRRA and KURA and the role of KRB; (b) Support to enhance the operational capacities of NCA and ERB; (c) Study of the role of MoR and provision of technical assistance to implement its new functions and strengthen the Material Department, Mechanical Transport Department and Kenya Institute of Highways and Buildings Technology (KIHBT) and External Resources Department of the Ministry of Finance; (d) Inventory of unclassified roads (typically less than nine meters corridor) and recommendations for their maintenance and management; (e) Conducting monitoring and evaluation of the performance of the Project and sector coordination; and (f) Training of manpower in KRB, ERD, State Law Office, and MoR.

Subcomponent B-3: Support to the Ministry of Transport (MoT) (Total US$19.10 million of which IDA US$17.47 million). This comprises: (a) Support the implementation the new integrated national transport sector policy, including the: (i) Setting up of the National Transport and Safety Authority and support for the National Road Safety Program; (ii) setting up of Nairobi Metropolitan Transport Authority; (iii) establishing the legal and regulatory framework for Railways; and (iv) setting up the Maritime Search and Rescue Unit; (b) Support to strengthen the oversight functions in the maritime sub-sector; (c) Strengthening of air accident investigation capacity, including construction of a hangar at JKIA and provision of services to supervise the construction works; (d) Develop navigation charts for the Kenyan Coastline and enhance the search and rescue capability of Kenya on Lake Victoria; (e) Improve the maritime training facilities at the Port of Kisumu; (f) Transport sector studies, including, among others, the development of an urban transport sector strategy; and a study on the development of air transport services at the county and regional levels, including a network of viable air strips; and participation of the private sector in the management of the port of Kisumu; and (g) Training of manpower in MoT.

37

Component C: Support to the Kenya Airports Authority (Total US$120.14 million of which IDA US$15.04 million)

14. The aviation sub sector has recorded major growth over the last eight years. For instance, in 2002 about 4.5 million passengers were handled at Kenyan airports; this figure rose to 6.9 million in 2009, an increase of about 53 percent. In terms of profitability, KAA has moved from loss to profit making partly due to the decision to allow the Authority to retain the revenue generated instead of remitting the collections to the Exchequer as before. For instance, in 2002, KAA recorded a loss of KES630 million compared to a profit of about KES1.8 billion in 2007, which reduced to KES990 million in 2009 due to the impact of the post elections crisis and the global financial downturn.

15. The enhancement of aviation safety and security, and expansion of major airports under the NCTIP assistance has been critical to the rapidly growing aviation industry, and the attainment, by KAA, of the United States clearance by Transport Security Administration (TSA) for direct flights to/from US airports. The assistance provided so far has supported the growth of the Kenya’s horticultural industry, tourism industry and the national airline, Kenya Airways, which has contributed to transforming JKIA into a hub serving the entire African continent. The expansion of Kisumu airport, originally envisaged under NCTIP to serve the domestic market, has now been transformed to serve as an international airport. Some airlines have commenced operations from the airport to overseas destinations (Jetlink now operates flights from Kisumu to Mwanza, Tanzania), while others have shown interest to follow suit shortly. Furthermore, experience has shown that further support is required to restructure KCAA for it to be able to attain International Aviation Safety clearance. Otherwise, further support without separating the service provision function from the oversight function is unlikely to yield expected results.

16. The runway at Moi International Airport (MIA) is in poor condition, while the power supply to the airport requires upgrading. The airport often experiences power outages leading to cancellation of flights to the airport. The poor state of the runway requires immediate rehabilitation otherwise it will soon become a major bottleneck to the tourism industry. MIA is the second most important airport in Kenya after Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA). It handled 980,000 passengers in 2004, the number increased to 1.1 million in 2009. Furthermore, it receives about 60 percent of tourist traffic in Kenya. Therefore, investments to rehabilitate the runway and upgrade the power supply are critical to the Kenyan economy.

17. The Authority has to respond and meet the needs of the growing industry. However, KAA is experiencing infrastructural capacity constraints in addition to deterioration of the existing infrastructure at major airports. Capacity expansion at both JKIA and Kisumu airport are going on with the support of European Investment Bank, French Development Agency, the World Bank and KAA’s own internally generated revenues under the NCTIP. However, the rapid increase in traffic levels is exerting further pressure on the planned expansion. For instance, parking space for aircrafts has been increased by 50 percent at JKIA under the NCTIP, yet more parking spaces are required to cater for the expansion plans of Kenya Airways, the interests of other airlines that intend to start their operations at JKIA, and the growing horticultural and related traffic. Meanwhile the basic infrastructure at the major airports managed by KAA requires improvements. The runway at MIA, Mombasa is in a poor state and

38

requires rehabilitation. Rehabilitation of the runway will support the tourism industry which is the main economic activity in the Coastal region of Kenya.

18. Hence, this component will comprise the following:

(a) Rehabilitation of MIA’s runway, taxiways and apron, and modernization of its airfield ground lighting systems; (b) Upgrading and modernizing power supply to MIA, and connection to KCAA facilities and equipment; (c) Provision of a new baggage-handling system at JKIA; (d) Capacity building and training of manpower in safety, security and airports management; (e) Augmenting water supply to JKIA and MIA; and (f) Supervision of construction works.

19. Rehabilitation of MIA’s runway, taxiways and apron will involve milling the top 50 mm and laying a uniform 50 mm thick new asphalt concrete wearing course on the runway, apron and taxiways; and modernization of the airfield ground lighting systems.

Component D: Support to the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (Total US$23.07 million of which IDA US$ 21.05 million).

20. The aviation sub sector continues to grow with the number of registered aircrafts, licensed pilots, Aircraft Maintenance Organizations and other civil aviation activities in Kenya increasing each year, which creates both opportunities and also poses challenges to KCAA. For instance, the total number of aircraft registered in Kenya increased from 757 in 2002 to 1,015 in 2009 (or 34 percent increase) while in case of personnel licenses (pilots), the increase was from 1,740 in 2003 to 5,543 in 2009, recording a dramatic increase of over 218 percent.

21. In terms of financial viability, KCAA recorded a net income of KES384 million in 2002. This reduced to KES 197 million in 2009, due to the rapid growth in operating costs compared to revenues. As part of the reforms in the transport sector, KCAA has been allowed by GoK to retain the revenue generated and not to remit to the Exchequer as was the case in the past. The revenues being collected currently are insufficient to meet its growing needs. The charges are relatively low, and among the lowest in the region. KCAA has submitted a proposal to MoT recommending a revision of the charges upwards, without compromising the competiveness of Kenya as an aviation hub.

22. The KCAA has its headquarter offices located in KAA’s premises, which is not consistent with the International Civil Aviation Organization’s (ICAO’s) requirements for an autonomous regulator. A new office block is required for KCAA. However, because of the low charges, KCAA is not getting adequate revenues to cover these costs, hence the support is required.

23. As regards delivery of service, the oversight and regulatory functions require strengthening. The main challenge for KCAA is to provide effective oversight of the civil aviation sector, which currently it is not in a position to do because of its inability to recruit and

39

retain qualified and experienced flight safety inspection personnel due to comparatively low remuneration packages it offers for this cadre of staff. Furthermore, KCAA is faced with a number of potential areas of conflict of interest that require to be addressed immediately to allow it to function truly as an autonomous regulator. This includes: (a) separation of the location of its headquarter offices outside the KAA’s premises, which it also regulates; and (b) separation of its responsibility to regulate air navigation services and East African School of Aviation from its responsibility to provide the same services.

24. To address these issues, KCAA Board has approved restructuring of the Authority. The restructuring involves: (a) immediate internal corporate restructuring of KCAA to create incentives for efficiency; (b) enhancement of remuneration to attract experienced and qualified flight safety inspectors; (c) retrenchment of about 200 non-core staff; and (d) preparing KCAA for eventual (one to two years) separation of service provision function from regulatory and oversight functions. KTSSP will support some of these efforts. Strengthening the regulatory function requires immediate attention. There is inadequate aviation safety and security oversight capacity. The oversight function requires 79 flight safety and operation licensing specialists while KCAA has 41, hence a shortfall of 38 specialists. This poses a serious threat to the growth and existence of the entire aviation industry in Kenya.

25. This component will involve the following:

(a) Provision of technical assistance for aviation safety and oversight capacity building; (b) Technical assistance to support the restructuring of KCAA and separation of its regulatory responsibilities from its service provision functions; (c) Construction of an office block for KCAA headquarters at JKIA and provision of services to supervise the construction works; (d) Upgrading the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) facilities; (e) Provision of equipment to upgrade and modernize air navigation systems; and (f) Training of manpower in safety, security and oversight in the civil aviation industry.

16. The POC will meet at least quarterly and MoR will provide the Secretariat.

B. Financial Management, Disbursements and Procurement

(a) Financial Management

17. The Bank’s financial management team conducted a financial management assessment of the KeNHA, MoT, MoR, KCAA, and KAA in accordance with the Financial Management Manual for World Bank-Financed Investment Operations dated March 1, 2010 and Financial Management Assessment and Risk Rating Principles.

47

18. The following are the financial management arrangements for the project.

Budgeting arrangements

19. KAA: KAA has qualified staff who undertake budgeting and monitoring. Budgeting procedures are documented under ISO 9001:2000 procedure titled Finance Standard Operating Procedures supported by the Finance Work Instructions which covers the entire process from budget preparation, budget control, monthly variance analysis, and management reports and is considered adequate. This is also supplemented by the Treasury guidelines issued annually on budget preparation. After KAA’s Board approval, the budget is forwarded to Treasury for approval. At the moment KAA is preparing the budget manually but plans are underway to computerize its operations. This can be funded from the project.

20. KCAA: Budgeting is done using the bottom up approach. The budgeting procedures are documented in the draft Finance Policy and Procedures Manual which is awaiting Board approval. KCAA uses Navision accounting system which is being run parallel with the SAGE accounting system that is being phased out. Navision has a budgeting module. Once the data migration is fully done and tested, KCAA will go live on Navision.

21. KeNHA: The budgeting process is deemed adequate. The budgeting process follows the Government of Kenya procedures titled; Government Financial Regulations and Procedures. In addition, KeNHA has its own procedures manual entitled Financial Policies, Guidelines & Procedures Manual dated July 1, 2009. The Finance Committee of the Board reviews the budget before forwarding to the full Board for adoption and approval. The new SAGE Pastel accounting system has a module for budgeting but previously the budget was done manually. Staff has been trained on the SAGE but are yet to go live.

22. MoR: The budgeting process is deemed adequate. The budgeting process follows GoK procedures titled; Government Financial Regulations and Procedures. The budget is done manually using excel as an Integrated Financial Management and Information System (IFMIS) module for budgeting is not operational. In addition, not all accountants have been trained on IFMIS especially the ones in External Resources Section of MoR who deal with donor projects. The financial management (FM) proposal is that the accountants be trained in IFMIS and the e- IFR training that the GoK is rolling out by April 2011.

23. MoT: The budgeting process is deemed adequate. The budgeting process follows the GoK procedures titled; Government Financial Regulations and Procedures. The budget is done manually using excel as IFMIS module for budgeting is not operational. The GoK is however rolling e–IFR by April 2011 and MoT staff will be trained on it.

Accounting arrangements

24. KAA: The Company has no accounting information system, and uses excel. The staff is qualified and experienced. The Financial Management Manual, i.e. the Finance Standard Operating Procedures and Finance Work Instructions are adequate to be utilized for the project.

48

25. KCAA: KCAA has been using SAGE pastel accounting software which is considered adequate for the project. This has however been upgraded to Navision, which is being run parallel to the SAGE. The staff is qualified and experienced. The Finance Policy & Procedures Manual in use is awaiting Board approval and is considered adequate.

26. KeNHA: Accounting and internal audit staff are adequate in terms of numbers, qualification and experience. However, since the Ministry of Roads has to get involved at some point in the KeNHA payment process- for Direct Payments only, any staffing challenge at the MoR affects KeNHA especially when it comes to efficiency.

27. They use both GoK procedures and own developed procedures entitled Financial policies, Guidelines & Procedures Manual. These are considered adequate.

28. KeNHA has just acquired SAGE Pastel accounting system. The staff has been trained and implementation has just started. Previously they were on manual accounting system.

29. MoR: MoR uses GoK procedures titled; Government Financial Regulations and Procedures which are considered adequate. The staffing is considered adequate. MoR has an External Resources Section that deals with donor funded projects. A project accountant has been designated for the KTSSP. MoR is using Microsoft excel but it is expected that by the end of April 2011, the GoK will have procured an accounting software for the project.

30. MoT: MoT uses GoK procedures titled; Government Financial Regulations and Procedures which is considered adequate. The staffing is considered adequate. Though MoT has already designated an accountant, there is need to designate an additional project accountant for the Kenya Transport Sector Support Project (KTSSP) due to the many projects that the accountant will be handling i.e. the East African Trade and Transport Facilitation Project (EATTFP), the Northern Corridor Transport Improvement Project (NCTIP) and KTSSP. MoT will deploy an additional accountant by July 31, 2011. MoT is using Microsoft excel but it is expected that by the end of April 2011, the GoK will have procured an accounting software for the project.

Internal control and internal auditing arrangements

Internal Auditing

31. KAA, KCAA, KeNHA, MoT, and MoR all have a strong internal audit function with audit committees in place to address issues raised by both internal and external audit reports but the audit committee of MoR and MoT are weak and needs capacity building to enable them carry out their responsibility effectively. There is also high turnover of staff at KCAA including the internal audit staff. KCAA Board has approved restructuring of KCAA and the proposal is now with MoF for endorsement. The pay packages will be improved and the issue of turnover resolved.

49

Internal Control Systems

32. KAA, KCAA, KeNHA, MoT and MoR have adequate financial management manuals documenting the internal control systems to be used under the project. KCAA Finance Policy & Procedures manual is still in draft awaiting Board approval.

Review of Internal Control Systems

33. A review of the external audit reports and the management letters flagged some internal control issues in KCAA, KeNHA/MoR and MoT, which are being addressed by the respective entities and will be monitored during project implementation by the Bank using agreed upon action plans with the entities.

34. KCAA: The Management Letter for fiscal year 2009 noted that the fixed asset register was not being updated. A firm has been awarded a contract to tag the assets and is expected to complete the process of tagging by the end of March 2011.

35. MoR: The audited accounts for fiscal year 2009 were qualified and internal control issues related to MoR were inaccuracies in financial statements; unsupported and ineligible expenditure; and pending bills from suppliers and contractors not settled at the end of the financial year and not disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. Internal control issues relating to KeNHA related to missing laptops not accounted for. MoR has received a clearance letter from Kenya National Audit Office (KENAO) after satisfactory resolution of these issues.

36. MoT: Arising out of the FY2009 audited accounts for NCTIP implemented by MoT, the ministry needs to improve on the monitoring and recording of fixed assets and monitoring of cash imprests to avoid audit qualifications related to these issues.

(b) Disbursements

Funds flow and disbursement arrangements

37. Banking arrangements: The Ministry of Finance (treasury) will be required to open five Designated Accounts denominated in United States Dollars while the KAA, KCAA, KeNHA, MoR and MoT will each open a Project Account denominated in Kenyan Shillings. Both accounts will be opened in acceptable commercial banks to IDA based in Kenya. Details of these accounts once opened and the signatories are to be submitted to the Bank. Counterpart funding from the GoK for activities implemented by KeNHA is to be remitted in the project account.

38. Funds flow arrangements: The project will adopt the transaction based Summary of Expenditure (SOE) method of disbursement. The Bank will give an initial advance with a ceiling. Subsequently, the implementing entities will submit their SOE and the Bank will process the withdrawal applications and deposit funds into the Designated Account. Funds will then be transferred from the Designated Account at Ministry of Finance into the project accounts at the KAA, KCAA, KeNHA, MoR and MoT. Each of these implementing entities will be

50

submitting their own withdrawal application to the Bank through the MoF. KeRRA and KURA will carry out procurement activities that will be paid by KeNHA while KRB will carry out procurement activities that will be paid by MoR.

39. Risks in the funds flow process: The Kenya portfolio has been facing delays in the transfer of funds from the Designated Account held at the Ministry of Finance to the project accounts held by the implementing entities. In addition, there have been delays in the transfer of government counterpart funds especially for infrastructure projects and this is likely to affect this project too. However, the GoK has undertaken to remit quarterly in the project account counterpart requirements to cover that period. The initial deposit is KES285 million for the quarter subsequent to effectiveness.

40. Disbursement arrangements: The transaction based disbursement procedures will be used. Other methods of disbursement will include direct payments, special commitments and reimbursements. Details concerning disbursements will be spelled out in the project’s Disbursement Letter that will be issued by the Bank.

Financial reporting arrangements

41. KAA, KCAA, KeNHA, MoR and MoT will prepare quarterly un-audited Interim Financial Reports (IFRs) for the project in form and content satisfactory to the Bank, which will be submitted to the Bank within 30 days after the end of the quarter to which they relate. All the entities have been producing satisfactory IFRs under the ongoing NCTIP and should have no difficulty developing the formats for this project.

42. The contents of the IFR will include a section to report on the accountability of funds utilized and a section to access funds using the report based method of disbursement.

The reporting section includes: • Statement of Sources and Uses of Funds; and • Statement of Uses of Funds by Project Activity/Component.

51

43. The project will also prepare the projects annual accounts/financial statements within three months after the end of the accounting year in accordance with accounting standards acceptable to the Bank. The audited financial statements should be submitted to the Bank within six months after the end of the accounting year. KAA, KCAA and KeNHA will prepare their accounts in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards while MoT and MoR will prepare their accounts in accordance with International Public Sector Accounting Standards.

Auditing arrangements

44. KENAO will audit KTSSP annual financial statements prepared by KAA, KCAA, MoT, MoR and KeNHA using the International Standards on Auditing. The audited financial statements will be submitted to the Bank within six months after the end of the fiscal year along with the management letter and management response thereto. The audit terms of reference (ToR) already agreed with KENAO under the NCTIP are sufficient to audit this project too. There are no overdue audit reports. The audit report will be disclosed in accordance with the Bank’s disclosure policy. However, KENAO’s capacity to conduct value for money audits needs to be strengthened and as an interim measure they can hire specialists to conduct these audits. Value for money audits could be required depending on the fiduciary risk during project implementation.

45. KCAA, KAA, MoT and KeNHA are currently implementing the NCTIP. Their audit reports for FY 2009 received qualified opinions. KCAA, KAA, MoT and MoR have since cleared their audit issues with KENAO and received clearance certificates which have been submitted to the Bank. MoT under the EATTFP audit report for FY09, had a qualification regarding ineligible expenditure of KES 16,776,327 but this has been refunded to the Bank.

46. The Bank also received the recently audited reports for the period ended June 30, 2010 for NCTIP. KAA and KCA had unqualified (clean) audit opinions. The audit reports for KeNHA and MoT were qualified on internal controls issues but not ineligible expenditure. MoT qualification related to transfers to KCAA and KAA from special accounts that still need to be explained to KENAO and noncurrent assets not disclosed in receipts and payments statements while KeNHA qualifications have subsequently being cleared by KENAO except for pending explanations on bank reconciliations. EATTFP audited reports for the year ended June 30, 2010 were also qualified for MOT and KeNHA but no ineligible expenditure was found. Qualification issues relate to pending explanations yet to be provided to KENAO on counterpart funds, special accounts statements and prior year adjustments. The above issues will be followed up by the Bank during the implementation of these projects using an action plan.

Financial Management Action Plan

47. The following actions need to be taken in order to enhance the financial management arrangements for the Project:

Table 2: Action Items for Financial Management Arrangements

Action Date due by Responsible 1. Designation of an additional accountant for MoT July 31, 2011 MoT 2. • Ensure MoR, MoT and KAA have accounting During implementation KENAO, MoF, KeNHA, information systems to produce the project books MoR, MoT KCAA and of accounts. KAA • Strengthen audit committees in MoT and MoR by ensuring compliance with Treasury circular 16/2005 on establishment and operationalisation of audit committees in the Public Service. • MoT, KeNHA/MoR and KCAA to address internal control issues raised by KENAO. • Follow up on funds flow delays between the Designated Account held by the Ministry of Finance and the project account held by the implementing entities to ensure that GoK has an efficient funds flow process. • Strengthen the capacity of KENAO to conduct value for money audits which could be required for this project depending on the fiduciary risk of the project during implementation. • MoT and KeNHA to submit an action plan to the Bank on how and when to address the issues raised by KENAO in the June 30, 2010 audit reports.

(c) Procurement

48. Total project cost is estimated at US$477.76 million. IDA will contribute about US$300 million towards the financing of works, goods, and consultant services, and training as detailed in Table 1 found in Annex 2. Out of the total estimated cost of the Project, KeNHA will be responsible for 64 percent, KAA for 25 percent, KCAA for 5 percent, MOT 4 percent and MOR

53

for 2 percent. Implicitly the procurement expenditures of the five PIAs will more or less be in the same proportion of their budgetary allocations. A Procurement Risk Assessment carried out during appraisal (February 2011) on the five project implementing agencies revealed common and agency-specific procurement risks. The common risks are attributable to systemic weaknesses in the areas of (i) accountability of procurement decisions, (ii) procurement record keeping; (iii) capacity of procurement staff; (iv) procurement planning; (v) procurement process administration including award of contracts; (vi) contract management; and (vii) procurement oversight. In addition to the common weaknesses, the turnover of the procurement staff of the Ministries of Roads and Transport and KCAA is high making the probability of strengthening and sustainability of their procurement capacity slim. Although the technical members of the Implementation Team of KeNHA are the same members of the PIT as for the on-going NCTIP, the project procurement officer is new and has had no experience in Bank procurement procedures.

49. KeNHA and KAA which are designated to implement 89 percent (in monetary terms) of the project activities are semi autonomous public entities. They have strong technical teams who have acquired vast experience from the on-going Bank-funded NCTIP including in the area of procurement. In view of this, the procurement risk in these two project implementing agencies is rated moderate. The other three project implementation agencies [two government ministries (MOR, MOT) and a state-owned entity (KCAA)] will implement 11 percent of project activities. Their procurement risk is substantial. Considering the share of responsibilities in project implementation and institutional capacity of the five project implementing agencies, the overall procurement risk is rated “moderate”.

50. The recommended measures for the mitigation of the procurement risks for each project implementation agency are:

(a) By Project Effective Date, prepare a Procurement Guide that: (i) defines the roles and responsibilities of all offices that will be involved in any aspect of procurement implementation of the project; (ii) set out the sequence and timeframe for the completion of procurement decisions of all individual players as well as for coordination of the contribution of the players in procurement implementation; and (iii) establish service standards for processing of payments to contractors and suppliers; (b) Develop and agree with the Bank by the Project Effective Date a procurement training plan for the PIT; (c) Align the preparation processes of Procurement Plans, Work Plans and budget estimates; (d) Establish separate effective tracking systems of: (i) Procurement Plan implementation, and (ii) processing of payments to contractors and suppliers; and (e) In consultation with the Public Procurement & Oversight Authority (PPOA) and KENAO, ensure that procurement audits by PPOA and financial audits by KENAO are conducted jointly.

51. For the improvement and sustainability of the procurement capacity in MOR, MOT and KCAA, establish and agree with the Bank a staffing plan that will minimize or eliminate the risk associated with the current trend of staff turnover.

54

52. A General Procurement Notice (GPN) was published in the DgMarket website on September 24, 2010. The GPN will be updated annually for all outstanding ICB and large consultancy services contracts, as appropriate. Specific Procurement Notices (SPN) for goods and works to be procured under ICB and NCB and for consultant services will be advertised in at least one national newspaper of wide circulation and internationally for ICB contracts. Procurement will be carried out in accordance with the World Bank’s Guidelines: Procurement Under IBRD Loans and IDA Credits dated May 2004 revised October 2006 and may 2010; and Guidelines: Selection and Employment of Consultants by World Bank Borrowers’ dated May 2004 revised October 2006 and May 2010.

53. Kenya has a public procurement law, the Public Procurement and Disposal Act of 2005 (PPDA) that governs purchase of works, goods and services using public resources by the central government entities, local authorities, state corporations, education institutions, and other government institutions. Under the PPDA, the PPOA has been established in addition to the Procurement Department in the MoF. The PPDA sets out the rules and procedures of public procurement and provides a mechanism for enforcement of the law. Some provisions of PPDA are not fully consistent with the World Bank procurement guidelines and Consultants Guidelines, and therefore these may not be applied for the implementation of this project without modification. These provisions and their respective modifications are:

(a) PPDA 55(2): instead, the tender submission date shall be set so as to allow a period of at least 30 days from the later of: (i) the date of advertisement, and (ii) the date of availability of the tender documents. (b) PPDA 4(2)(c): instead, Recipient’s Government-owned enterprises shall be allowed to participate in the tendering only if they can establish that they are legally and financially autonomous, operate under commercial law and are an independent agency of the Recipient’s Government.

(iii) Environmental and Social (including safeguards)5

A. Environmental Assessment

Environmental Safeguards

53 According to the environmental safeguards classification, the project is a Category B as most of the project financed activities either have moderate impacts or involve the rehabilitation of existing infrastructure. Potential environmental impacts may include soil erosion and disturbance of water flows, water pollution, traffic disruption, noise, gaseous and dust pollution, and disturbance of flora and fauna. The project involves preparing and disclosing documents including Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) and Environmental Management Plans (EMPs). All the 10 environmental assessments and management documents have been prepared and reviewed by the World Bank and found to be acceptable. The details are in Table 4. Any other infrastructure rehabilitation or works that may take place during project implementation which has not already been subjected to an environmental and social impact assessment will be subject to the same safeguard policies and procedures, which include EIAs and EMPs to be prepared, approved and disclosed prior to execution of works.

57. The details and the views of the consultations are contained in the respective EIAs. The findings of the environmental assessment (EA) of the various road works subprojects suggest that overall impact is positive on the socio-economic environment of the area. Positive impacts largely comprise reduction in people’s transport costs, travel time savings, increased employment opportunities – not only during the construction period but also in the long-term due to increased economic activities, better access to medical clinics and hospitals especially for a variety of activities engaged mainly by women and children, and better access to schools and social amenities. The findings are similar for Moi International airport since the project will be limited to rehabilitation of the existing runway.

58. Nevertheless, there are negative impacts that have been identified in the EA reports with recommendations for appropriate measures to mitigate their effects. The negative impacts, which are likely to occur mainly during the construction phase, include: soil erosion and disturbance of water flows, water pollution, traffic disruption, noise, vibration, gaseous and dust pollution, disturbance of flora and fauna, permanent and/or temporary land acquisition and landscape disturbance. No large scale, significant and irreversible impacts have been identified. During construction, a number of borrow pits and stone quarries will be opened up. The GoK

5The Safeguard Instruments employed for this project are comprised of: (a) the Environmental Impact Assessments for the Rehabilitation of Kisumu-Kakamega Road; Rehabilitation of Kakamega-Webuye Road; Rehabilitation of Webuye-Kitale Road; Rehabilitation of Maji ya Chumvi-Bachuma Gate Road; Rehabilitation of the runway at Moi Airport, Mombasa; Construction of two new lanes along Athi River and Machakos Turnoff Road; and Construction of four Interchanges at Nakuru/Nyahururu, Nakuru/Njoro, Mau Summit/Kisumu and Ahero/Kisii; (b) the Environmental Management Plans for the Construction of Hangar at JKIA for Air Accident Investigations; Construction of an Office Block at JKIA for KCAA Headquarters; and the Construction at JKIA of an Office Block for road sub-sector institutions including KENHA; (c) a Resettlement Policy Framework; and (d) the Resettlement Action Plans for the Rehabilitation of Kisumu-Kakamega Road; Rehabilitation of Kakamega-Webuye Road; Rehabilitation of Webuye-Kitale Road; Rehabilitation of Maji ya Chumvi-Bachuma Gate; and the Construction of two new lanes along Athi River and Machakos Turnoff Road.

66

will ensure that suitable locations of such quarries and borrow pits are identified, which will be free of homesteads, buildings, and other environmentally sensitive structures.

59. Since most of the negative impacts identified in the EA reports relate to the construction phase of the project, mitigation and support measures have been incorporated in the relevant clauses in the contract documents, for the road sections, bids have been invited and will also be done for the rest of the road sections before tendering of the works contracts starts. Such clauses include, among others, provisions for appropriate measures for storage, handling, transportation and disposal of all waste material; provision of adequate sanitary facilities; rehabilitation and surface restoration of borrow pits; basic training in construction health and mitigation measures against spread of Human Immunodeficiency Virus/Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (HIV/AIDS); and sustainable seeding and tree growing to restore vegetation to its original condition; and extraction of water. The project also provides for specific measures under the roadside amenities and road safety activities to minimize negative environmental and social impacts and enhance social welfare and positive impacts.

Social Safeguards

60. KeNHA mobilized Consultant services to assist in the Resettlement Action Plans (RAPs) for all road sections under the project. A RAP is not required for the rehabilitation of the runway at Moi International airport since no resettlement is envisaged. Key social issues relevant to project objectives are: Safeguarding in relation to social impacts of resettlement and loss of property, HIV /AIDS and its negative consequences, Road safety and overall participation of key stakeholders in this project.

61. The potential social impacts may include permanent and/or temporary land acquisition and landscape disturbance, disturbance of roadside vendors and in very few cases loss of personal property. No cumulative impacts are anticipated at this point.

62. The road sub sector developed a Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF), which was approved by the World Bank under NCTIP. This framework will be adopted for this project. The framework provides and clarifies the key principles underlying mitigation and compensation to local communities and others who will be adversely affected by relocation or loss of property due to the road works and in general for the affected persons. This framework outlines how the affected people will be compensated for loss of wages, loss of assets at replacement costs and also given the opportunity to share project benefits. All identified cases of relocation enumerated in the RAP will receive assistance on resettlement. The RPF has been updated, reviewed and cleared by the Bank for disclosure.

63. All the six social safeguard documents have been prepared, reviewed and cleared for disclosure by the Bank (Table 4). Bidding documents for all civil works will be based on the Bank models and will include the necessary provisions for temporary resettlement as well as chance finding of archeological items or cultural properties.

64. With regard to the Athi-Machakos Turnoff- road section, KeNHA had prepared a RAP in 2004 with a cut-off date of January 21, 2004 under NCTIP. Compensation payments have been

67

made to the respective RAPs and a completion report prepared. There is minimal encroachment into the road reserve since 2004 (only three permanent structures which had encroached on the road) and several traders with kiosks.

65. KeNHA commissioned a report describing how the project plans to deal with new encroachers (post cut-off date) and the decision of KeNHA and the Resettlement Committee on how they will be treated. Since this occurred after the cut-off date, and the RAP was consistent in disclosing the cut-off date throughout the inventory, census-taking, KeNHA may decide to provide disturbance and moving allowances and allow sufficient time for them to move out of the RoW and that be allowed to avail of the grievance mechanism. Otherwise in case there are any further consultations:

(a) the minutes should be included into the safeguard documents as an Annex; (b) other changes and revisions to the safeguard documents should be made at this time, and the documents should be re-disclosed locally and in Bank InfoShop prior to project effectiveness; and (c) as regards consultations and grievance mechanism, a consultation and disclosure approach will continue to be applied including on the grievance mechanism.

66. In addition to the above measures, the project has a roadside amenities and social and economic enhancement component (including HIV/AIDS mitigation) to support improvement of livelihoods of the communities along the road corridors. The component will also spur social and economic activities that will benefit the local communities as well. The corridor also presents opportunities for the local communities to be involved in road works through provision of manual and skilled labor where appropriate, and especially when the construction commences.

67. Road safety issues are a major concern in Kenya that claims a total of nearly 3000 lives annually. This project will complement the efforts under NCTIP, where a National Road Safety program has been developed and approved by the GoK. Its implementation begins in January 2011. Under the project attention will be given to increasing awareness of road safety through information provision and education of adults as well as children along the selected road corridors. The design of the project will include widening of the existing road in critical places to allow for bicycle paths and pedestrian sidewalks to enhance safety in selected areas.

(iv) Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E)

68. The ORAF provides the framework for monitoring the project performance. The main outcome indicator will be the reduction of travel time and transport cost on the Northern Corridor and the Tanzania-Kenya-Sudan road corridors. The baseline information is available. There are other performance and outcome indicators specially related to the policy and institutional reforms in the transport sector.

69. Results will be monitored, by a team of experts from the University of Nairobi (UoN) under contract with MoR but working in close collaboration with KeNHA and MoT. The reason for assigning this task to the University of Nairobi is to permit continuity in long term monitoring of the results and their impact on the economy. The government has proposed to engage UoN on a single source basis. The UoN is the M&E consultant under NCTIP, and the country has benefited enormously by assigning this task to the UoN. In the process of collecting and analyzing the data for M&E, thirty three students have utilized the information, produced theses and attained or about to graduate with Masters Degrees and also three Doctorate students. This decision has helped to create and build local capacity in M&E, and also provided an opportunity for continuity and sustainability in long term monitoring of the results and their impact on the economy; and linking the academia with the industry in Kenya, which is weak. KeNHA, KAA, MoR and KCAA have established M&E and Communications Units in their organization structures. These units will work closely with UoN.

70. The works contracts will be supervised by independent consultants selected competitively. The consultants will oversee the day–to-day progress of works on the site and to certify each payment invoice, including compliance by the contractor with all technical specifications, environmental and social mitigation plans, and contractual provisions.

71. Communications Strategy: To supplement the UoN work, a draft Communication strategy for the project has been prepared. This will be overseen by Bank’s Communications Specialist on the task team, based in the Kenya Country Office in conjunction with communication counterparts from KeNHA, KCAA, MoT, MoR and KAA. Already, a reconnaissance of the project sites has been made and interviews carried out and recorded, baseline information collected and a dialogue with potential beneficiaries initiated. An engagement-feedback mechanism that will be used throughout the life of the project is being finalized.

72. Communication will be an integral part of the project, not only in terms of updating the stakeholders about implementation progress of the physical works, but also on how the project is supporting GoK efforts in entrenching increased transparency and accountability in public investments, and fight against corruption and fraud. It will also demonstrate the government’s commitment to finance priority projects to support the implementation of Vision 2030, inform the public the development objectives of the project and demonstrate its benefits to the Kenyan people and appeal for their support and facilitation during the implementation of the project. The Communications Specialist at the Kenya Country Office will work closely with the MoR, KeNHA, KAA, KCAA and MoT to hold joint public workshops and briefing sessions, and assist

70

these institutions develop their own websites where information on progress such as award of contracts, commencement of works, social issues related with recruitment of workers by contractors for works and also any challenges faced during implementation would be available online for public comment.

73. Furthermore, the project’s communication strategy will seek to create awareness about the project’s contribution to infrastructure improvement and efficiency in the transportation system of Kenya, and the neighboring countries that depend on Kenya for international trade and exchange. It will focus on the economic and social benefits to the people of Kenya and the neighboring countries in terms of job creation, market efficiency, and the welfare benefits of better equity in the distribution of income and creation of economic opportunities in the medium and long-term. The Kenya Country Office will attempt to mobilize the support and communicate the benefits of the project to diverse audiences, including the project’s development objectives and how the project contributes to institutional reforms in the transport sector.

74. The strategic communication framework and outreach efforts will involve a series of internal and external activities and include key activities as follows:

1. Partnership The Bank will lead in establishing a network of transport sector communication partners including the ministries of transport and roads, KeNHA, and development partners. It will also encourage social accountability mechanisms with communities and nongovernmental organizations active in the transport sector and the project areas. These partners will engage in regular discussions and constructively address emerging issues during the life of the project

2. Budget The activities will require an estimated budget of US$25,000 over the next five years for the Bank team while GoK and the respective implementing agencies will determine and provide their own budget with the assistance of the communication specialist on the team. The details will be worked out.

3. Expected Outcomes The implementation of this communication program will increase awareness about the benefits of the project and improve the networking and consensus between the Bank, government, implementing agencies, partners, communities and other stakeholders in the project areas in particular and the transport sector in general

4. Monitoring and Evaluation The communication teams of the Bank and the implementing agencies will regularly monitor and respond to press reports, queries and discussions about the project. The communications team will evaluate the progress achieved at the end of the first six months period in June 2011.

Annex 5: Implementation Support Plan

KENYA: Transport Sector Support Project

Focus of Supervision

1. Implementation support will focus on those activities that are critical for project success, particularly quality of works; technical compliance; timely payment to contractors, suppliers and consultants; timely award of contracts; and adherence to implementation schedules. The Bank’s team members of the project implementation have adequate skill mix and most of them are based in the Country Office. This will therefore enable continuous and cost-effective supervision of the project.

2. Emphasis will be placed on upstream reporting, auditing and accountability, and technical compliance measures to ensure early detection and remedy of problems through on- going oversight of the project implementation activities. In case of civil works contracts, there will be prompt review of project implementation progress reports prepared by the international engineering supervision firms that will perform the day to day independent certification of the quality of work, payment certificates and compliance with contract terms.

3. The World Bank project team will comprise experts with appropriate skills that will review the project’s main technical documents/reports, conduct site visits for verification of the progress as noted in the reports, and provide advice to the client on various aspects of the project. The experts are based at the Kenya Country Office and are knowledgeable in procurement, financial management, highway construction and contracts management, social development, transport economics, and monitoring and evaluation (M&E), supported by staff in the Headquarters (environmental specialist, urban transport specialist, aviation safety and security). The Bank experts will be further supported by consultant specialists in selected areas (architecture, mechanical engineering, maritime engineering, and airports planning, electrical and information systems, and construction). The engineering team in the Country Office will monitor progress and supervise the project on a continuous basis, with site visits planned every three months. Supervision in selected areas (such as environment, social development, procurement and financial management) will be planned as needed, but at least twice a year, and Specialist Consultant visits would be planned at least once a year or as needed.

4. Procurement documents subject to prior review will be carefully reviewed by both the technical expert(s) and the senior procurement specialist on the team to ensure that they comply with the project’s technical requirements and the Bank’s procurement and consultants guidelines. For those contracts that exceed the limits of approval by the procurement Accredited Staff on the team, the procurement will be subject to review and clearance by the Regional Procurement manager and the Bank’s Operations Policy and Country Services committee as appropriate. For large road works contracts, bid evaluation reports will be reviewed by an independent procurement specialist as an additional step towards greater due diligence. Furthermore, to ensure compliance, random reviews of the submitted bids/proposals against the submitted bid/proposal evaluation reports will be carried out. For procurement actions subject to post reviews, annual assessments will be carried out by the procurement team in the Country Office.

76

5. The Financial Management specialist will carry out periodic reviews of the project’s five implementing agencies’ Financial Management systems and controls and where necessary will conduct reviews of statements of expenditure and monitor the availability and adequacy of the counterpart funds as reported in the quarterly Financial Monitoring reports/Interim Financial reports. These reviews will be utilized for improving the implementing agencies’ systems and performance in these areas.

6. Before each supervision mission, the project implementing agencies will submit to the Bank a detailed consolidated project implementation progress report which will provide the status of the project activities and identify all implementation issues facing the project. These reports combined with site visits will be the basis for reaching agreement with the client on the activities for the upcoming period and resolution of implementation issues facing the project.

7. Annual audit reports with accompanying management letters will be submitted to the Bank for its review. It is anticipated that a further independent audit of the major works will be conducted, as is the case with contracts funded by the government of Kenya (GoK).

Mode of Supervision

8. The Task Team will undertake supervision as follows:

(a) On-going technical, procurement and financial management support to the project’s implementing agencies from the country based team; (b) Quarterly supervision reviews of the project, including visits to the project sites. The review teams will comprise an engineer, procurement specialist, financial management specialist, social development specialist and Task Team Leader; (c) Annual fully fledged supervision missions involving all the key Task Team members; (d) The Communications Specialist on the team will prepare a brief on the implementation status of the project and post it on the external Country Office website semi-annually; and (e) Similarly, the Communications Specialist on the team will assist the: Kenya National Highway Authority (KeNHA), Kenya Airports Authority (KAA), Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA), Ministry of Transport (MoT) and Ministry of Roads (MoR) to prepare brief implementation progress of the project, and post it on their websites.

Monitoring

9. On the side of the GoK, the capacity of the implementation agencies is augmented by technical assistance and consultant services, particularly in the areas of designs, supervision, project coordination, monitoring and evaluation, and user satisfaction surveys (local consultant or civil society organization to be engaged). The annual M&E reports produced by the M&E consultants (a public University) will be discussed at workshops with stakeholders, both during their preparation and on finalization.

Budget

77

10. The above activities would require both the Bank and the GoK’s management to allocate adequate resources for their staff to be able to carry out comprehensive project supervision. Inadequate resources will hamper the implementation of the proposed intensive follow up and monitoring required for mitigating the potential risks identified.

Annex 7: Economic and Financial Analysis

KENYA: Transport Sector Support Project

I. Economic and Financial Analysis

Road Sections

REHABILITATION OF THE KISUMU-KAKAMEGA-WEBUYE-KITALE; ATHI RIVER-MACHAKOS TURNOFF; AND BACHUMA GATE-MAJI YA CHUMVI

1. The economic analysis carried out on Kisumu – Kakamega, Kakamega – Kaburengu, Webuye – Kitale road and Athi River – Machakos Road. The existing pavement structure for the section between Kakamega and Kitale comprises of;

A: Kisumu (Junction A1/C34) – (Kaburengu/Webuye) A104 Junction: (a) wearing course: 50 – 75 mm AC; (b) base, 125 mm improved gravel: and (c) sub base: 175 mm Lime improved gravel.

B: Kaburengu/Webuye (A104) Junction–Kitale: (a) wearing course: double surface dressing; (b) base: 130 mm GCS improved with cement; and (c) sub base: neat gravel

2. These road sections are in a very poor condition and are scheduled for reconstruction under this project. Table 1 shows the recommended traffic load classes for different sections of the project road in accordance with the Kenya Road Design Guidelines.

Table 1: Traffic load classes

Road Section Traffic Load Class Kisumu – Kakamega T2 Kakamega Town T2 Kakamega - Webuye T3 Webuye - Kitale T3

3. The proposed pavement structure comprises of

A: Kisumu (Junction A1/C34) – Kiboswa: (a) wearing course: 100 mm AC Type I; (b) base: 150 mm GCS; and (c) sub base: 125 mm Cement and lime improved gravel.

B: Kiboswa – Kakamega: (a) wearing course: 100 mm AC Type I; (b) base: 150 mm GCS; and (c) sub base: 125 mm Cement and lime improved gravel.

C: Kakamega – Webuye: (a) wearing course: 50 mm AC; (b) base: 150 mm Cement improved gravel; and (c) sub base: 175 mm improved gravel.

D: Webuye – Kitale: (a) wearing course: 50 mm AC; (b) base: 150 mm Cement improved gravel; and (c) sub base: 175 mm improved gravel.

80

E: Athi River – Machakos Turn Off

Athi River – Machakos Turn Off comprises of a seven meter wide two lane-two way road. The existing pavement is in good condition except for two bridges which are currently under construction. The proposed project comprises of construction of a new two lane road for the entire 21 km stretch from the Athi River interchange to Machakos Turn Off. The newly constructed two lane road together with the existing two lane road will provide a four lane – two way road (dual carriageway).

4. Benefits expected to accrue from rehabilitation activities include savings to be made by motorists on vehicle operating costs, road maintenance costs and travel time costs.

F: Bachuma Gate – Maji Ya Chumvi

5. This is a 53 km section of the Northern Corridor road that remains to be reconstructed between Mombasa and Nairobi. The traffic volume is 4,280 vpd and the road has never been upgraded or strengthened since its initial construction in the 1960’s except for an occasional resurfacing. Its pavement is therefore incapable of carrying the heavy traffic that is now flowing on the Nairobi – Mombasa highway. Although detailed designs are still under preparation, it is expected that the existing pavement will be scarified and remixed with fresh gravel and compacted as improved subgrade and sub-base, followed by a graded crushed stone base course (150-200mm) and asphalt concrete wearing course (80-100 mm) and a single surface seal. The pavement width will be widened to seven meters with shoulders at least 1.5 meters wide. Expected benefits comprise net savings in vehicle operation costs and travel time savings as well as savings in future maintenance costs.

Assumptions

6. Net benefits were computed using the Highway Development and Management Model (HDM-4), which simulates highway cycle and vehicle operation condition and costs for multiple road design and maintenance alternatives. The discount rate was set to 12 percent and the evaluation period to 20 years. Maintenance and reconstruction costs were estimated in financial and economic terms (net of taxes and subsidies), economic cost being on average 78 percent of financial costs. Vehicle fleet characteristics and economic unit costs were defined for six vehicle classes reflecting 2008 costs, which are given in Table 2.

Working Time

7. The value of working time for a car passenger was estimated considering an average economic annual income of KES 275,000 per annum and 2000 working hours per year (250 days at eight hours), and the value of working time for a public transport passenger was estimated as twice the minimum wage rate. The value of non-working time was considered as 25 percent of working time and the percentage of work journeys to be 35 for cars and 25 for public transport. The value of cargo time has been estimated on the basis of an average cargo value of US$400 per ton and cost of working capital of 15 percent. The following table presents typical road user costs of different roughness levels, in US$ per vehicle-km, and typical road user costs composition for road roughness equal to two International Roughness Index (IRI) (newly constructed asphalt surface).

This is to cater for the redistribution of traffic/cargo to other roads within the transport corridors.

Economic Evaluation

11. HDM-4 analysis was carried out for two different works. These include; (a) “Without” project case basically involving minor routine and periodic maintenance such as grass clearance, pavement patching and crack sealing; and (b) “With” project case also known as “base case scenario” basically involving widening and construction of a new pavement and subsequent routine and periodic maintenance.

12. Sensitivity Analysis was undertaken for each of the sub-sections and compared with the “Base Case” for the following scenarios:

85

(a) High capital cost scenario assuming that the cost of capital and that of recurrent works will be 20 percent higher than the base scenario costs;

(b) Low benefits scenario assumes that accrued benefits will be 20 percent lower than the base scenario benefits; and

(c) High capital cost and low benefits scenario which assumes that the cost capital and that of recurrent works will be 20 percent higher than the base scenario and accrued benefits will be 20 percent lower than the base scenario benefits.

13. The Net Present Value (NPV) and the Economic Internal Rate of Return (EIRR) for the reconstruction are shown in Table 8.

Conclusion

14. These results show that each of the four road sections will be economically viable (positive NPVs and EIRR>12), even under the worst situation when both costs go up by 20 percent and the benefits go down by 20 percent.

REHABILITATION OF THE RUNWAY AND ASSOCIATED FACILITIES AT MOI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (MIA), MOMBASA

15. The economic evaluation has been carried out on the basis of social cost benefit analysis, with the objective to maximize the returns on investment in economic terms of this of this public expenditure.

16. The economic analysis has been based on incremental costs and incremental benefits, i.e. comparing the total costs “with the project” with “without the project” which is the base case or the do minimum case. All costs and benefits are valued in monetary terms and expressed in economic prices for avoiding distortion in the input prices of labor, materials and equipment due to market imperfection. The comparison has been worked on an annual basis for the entire analysis period, where the natural growth of all the related revenue streams will be restored, or else, it will freeze after a certain time span, without the project investment. Thus it is considered that in the without project situation certain value addition to the economy will be foregone. In the improved scenario there are also savings in the time value of both passengers and cargo. The results have been expressed in terms of EIRR and NPV.

17. The Economic Analysis has been carried out using spreadsheet analysis using the economic cost and benefit streams and computing the EIRR and NPV for economic evaluation of the project. The fundamental considerations for the economic analysis are presented as follows.

18. Assumptions (a) It is considered that without the improvement proposal the natural growth of the airport activities will be at a depressed growth rate of three percent per annum. However, with the improved option the traffic will grow with the natural growth process; (b) The standard conversion factor for the economic analysis is considered as 0.85; (c) The annual maintenance cost is considered as 1.5 percent of the capital cost; (d) The periodic maintenance cost, that is, every five years after completion of the project, is considered as five percent of the capital cost; (e) With the improvement strategy, there will be savings in maintenance costs in the tune of 25 percent of the existing maintenance cost; (f) Construction period is three years and the analysis period is considered 20 years including construction for EIRR estimation. Thus the analysis period is inclusive of construction period as well as benefit period; and (g) A discount rate of 12 percent has been considered to determine NPV.

19. The project costs include costs of main and secondary runway, taxiways, asphalt apron pavement, rigid apron pavement, drainage and slope stability and other general items. The project cost is found as KES4.75 billion in financial term. By applying the standard conversion factor the economic cost of the project stood as KES4.05 billion (or US$50 million excluding the cost of electrical works).

87

Routine and Periodic Maintenance Costs

20. The annual and periodic maintenance cost for the project is presented in the following Table 9. Both routine and periodic maintenance costs have been converted into economic costs by applying the standard conversion factor of 0.85.

Table 9: Periodic & Routine maintenance Cost: With project scenario (KES million) Maintenance Strategy Financial Cost Economic Cost

Routine Maintenance 54.62 46.43 Periodic Maintenance 182.07 154.76

Project Benefits

21. The project benefits considered in the economic analysis are:

(a) Savings in time value of cargo; (b) Savings in time value of passengers; and (c) Value addition to the economy due to increase in international passengers.

22. The increased revenues due to higher level of domestic passengers are not considered as they are not adding to the economy and only a case of transfer price. In addition, the savings of fuel due to decreased delay of landing of aircrafts is not considered as it is difficult to segregate the part that is a real benefit to the Kenyan economy. Moreover, any additional benefit due to savings in the aircraft operating cost, which is not included in the analysis, will increase the robustness of the project.

Economic Internal Rate of Return (EIRR) and Net Present Value (NPV)

23. The spreadsheet model has been used for economic analysis and the following results have been found. The EIRR and the NPV at 12 per cent discount rate are determined using the model. The results obtained for the most likely scenario (base case) are presented in Table 10.

Table 10: Results of Economic Analysis (Base case), EIRR (%)

Activity EIRR (%) NPV KES Million @ 12% Runway rehabilitation 20.7 3,909 (or US$ 47.7 million)

24. The economic internal rate of return is about 21 percent and the NPV at 12 percent discount rate is $47.7 million. A sensitivity analysis was carried out on the results as shown in Table 11 below. The EIRR for the worst case scenario with 25 percent reduction in benefits plus 25 percent increase in costs is 15.5 percent. Table 12 gives the annual cost and benefit stream for the base case scenario.

Switching Value

25. The switching value of the project is estimated in conjunction with 25 percent higher costs. It is found that the project can withstand up to 45.2 percent reduction in benefit before the NPV reduces to zero at 12 percent discount rate.

89

Conclusion

26. The following conclusions can be drawn from the result of the economic analysis in terms of EIRR: (a) The rehabilitation of the runway is economically viable with an estimated EIRR of 21 percent; (b) Sensitivity analysis shows that the EIRR is robust even with 25 percent increase in costs and 25 percent reduction in benefits; and (c) The switching value analysis shows that the benefits would have to reduce by more than 45.2 percent before the project becomes unviable, even with 25 percent increase in costs.

Annex 9: Roads Sub Sector Investment Plan

KENYA: Transport Sector Support Project

1. The Roads sub-sector has undergone tremendous reforms over the last decade aimed at providing a high quality road network to support Kenya economic development. Several key reforms have been achieved, but there has been no road investment plan in place to guide investment decisions.

2. The Roads Sub Sector Investment Plan (RSIP) is a legal requirement. The Kenya Roads Act 2007 requires that every five years the Minister responsible for roads to prepare a road investment program.

3. Preparation of the RSIP. An inter-ministerial committee was established in 2007 to prepare the country’s first comprehensive RSIP. The preparation of the RSIP was slowed down due to inadequate critical road network data, which revealed an urgent need to develop strong road management information systems. The RSIP was developed through a consultative process including stakeholders’ participation to create ownership and form a basis for future evaluation on accountability to the taxpayer. The road maintenance and development programs contained in the RSIP have been prioritized on economic considerations using the internationally recognized Highway Development Module (HDM-4) and further moderated to incorporate social and political considerations, consistent with roads sub sector policy. The model was calibrated to Kenyan conditions. The RSIP Table 4 and Table 1 in Annex 8 includes: (a) an outline 15 year investment plan; and (b) a detailed five year implementation program, and covers all road works from construction of new roads to rehabilitation and maintenance utilizing all resources that are expected to be made available.

4. The total road network in the country totals 160,886 km and has all been considered under this RSIP. Of this total length, 61,945 km are classified roads while 98,941 km are unclassified. Currently, 11,197 km are paved, while 149,689 km are of earth or gravel standard. According to the Road Inventory and Condition Survey 2009, 11 percent, 33 percent and 56 percent of the roads are in good, fair and poor condition respectively.

5. Financing of the Road Sub-Sector. Presently, funding for the road sub-sector is obtained from six sources, namely: (a) the Exchequer or national budget, (b) the Road Maintenance Levy Fund (RMLF); (c) transit tolls; (d) Local Government Transfer Fund (LGTF); (e) Agricultural Cess; and (f) Development Partners. Total funding of the Road sub-sector has improved greatly increasing from KES46.02 billion in the FY07 to KES104.2 billion in FY11. The funding to the Road sub-sector is projected to continue increasing, to reach KES123 billion in FY15.

6. Expenditure requirements. The projected expenditure for the first five years of the RSIP is KES534.6 billion. Of this amount, committed and ongoing projects will cost KES252.7 billion. Allocation has been made of KES14.5 billion to cater for road management issues (capacity building, road safety, axle load enforcement, environmental sustainability, monitoring and evaluation, feasibility and design studies); public transport facilities; non motorized transport

98

(NMT); and drainage. The implementation of the first five-year RSIP will improve 14,644 km that will involve the following:

(a) Capacity improvements (dualling and lane additions) of 182km at KES 31billion. (b) Construction of 173km of new roads at KES 24 billion. (c) Upgrading 4,004km to bitumen standards at KES 158 billion. (d) Upgrading 1,486km to Low Volume Seal Roads at a cost of KES 20 billion. (e) All network routine maintenance - 160,866 km. (f) All backlog maintenance shall be addressed on the paved ABC roads. (g) By 2014, the backlog maintenance on the paved road network will have been reduced to KES 46 billion.

7. Delivery of RSIP. The implementation of the RSIP will be carried out by the road agencies and through private sector participation. The road agencies are expected to outsource from the private sector most of the works, goods and services.

8. A monitoring and evaluation (M&E) framework has been developed, to enhance transparency and accountability in the delivery of the program. The findings of the M&E exercise will be disseminated to all key stakeholders including the government, the people of Kenya and development partners.

9. Findings and Recommendations:

(a) Funds for maintenance are inadequate. Current allocation for maintenance is KES20 billion annually against a requirement of KES 40 billion. In Phase I of RSIP, approximately 40 percent of the funds have been allocated to clear current commitments while the balance is to address routine, periodic and backlog maintenance. There are therefore no resources to address critical infrastructure needs particularly traffic congestion in urban areas. (b) Over 93 percent of cargo and passenger are transported by road leading to high transport costs and damage to the road infrastructure. A deliberate effort to revamp the railway system is required. (c) The current local contracting capacity is inadequate for sustainability of delivery of works. A deliberate effort to increase the capacity of local contractors, consultancy firms and Road Agencies, train and empower them to fully participate in road development and maintenance, is required. (d) M&E is crucial to tracking the progress of implementation of the RSIP, and will be useful in implementing the second phase of the RSIP. (e) Each Road Agency has to build capacity to collect its own data for planning and designing. (f) Research and development on suitable/alternative construction materials and technologies is important for achievement of objectives of RSIP.
