Project Description
If provided by the financial institution, the Early Warning System Team writes a short summary describing the purported development objective of the project and project components. Review the complete project documentation for a detailed description.
Component 1: Road Asset Preservation. This component comprises two subcomponents: (a) performance-based contracts; and (b) emergency small scale road repairs Subcomponent 1.1: Performance-based contracts. This subcomponent will finance the carrying-out under performance-based maintenance contracts (PBMC) of (a) rehabilitation works; and (b) routine maintenance including emergency works. The roads selected for PBMC will be prioritized based on an economic analysis (costs-benefits analysis; cost-effectiveness method; multi-criteria analysis). In addition, the rehabilitation will be an upgrading of dirt roads into cobblestone roads or a rehabilitation of cobblestone roads. As much as possible, the road will not be widened to minimize land acquisition. The number of jobs created and the volume of revenues distributed through the use of cobblestones will be closely monitored. Subcomponent 1.2: Emergency works. This subcomponent will finance the carrying-out of small-scale rehabilitation works on the national road network as emergency repairs that are not covered under the Component 2: Institutional Strengthening and Project Management. This component will finance: (a) training and capacity building activities for the entities involved in the implementation of the project; (b) the operating costs of the PCU including audits Component 4: Inter-island Transport Strategy. This component will finance studies and technical assistances related to the following: (a) increasing the efficiency and efficacy of the road maintenance funds (FAMR); (b) improving the resilience of the road network to climate change by defining adequate mitigation and adaptation measures; (c) analyzing the trade and logistic performance of Cabo Verde; (d) defining, adopting, and implementing strategies and action plans to put in place a safe, efficient, and reliable inter-island maritime transport; (e) defining, adopting, and implementing strategies and action plans to reform and/or privatize efficiently transport SOEs of which TACV.
