A Review of Highway Agencies in the South Asia Region Table A1: Calculations for indicator 13 Basic data: Assumed as under: arrangement for conducting classified traffic volume counts (for example, in India, IRC requires a seven-day count twice a year); and whether, in addition to such traffic census, the agency has instituted special features such as permanent traffic counts (365 days a year) through automatic traffic counters; • Indicator 7(a): This indicator is intended to ascertain whether the agency has a policy in place for skill enhancement, talent retention, career progression and performance awards, and so on, for employees – technical and secretarial -- at all levels; and • Indicator 29: This indicator is intended to ascertain whether the agency has established a formal arrangement to consult user stakeholders such as industry associations, truck owners associations, automobile associations, tourist associations, and so on, and, if established, whether regular meetings are held. It is noted that several states in India and governments in the South Asia region are increasingly reorienting their highway agencies to cater to the felt needs of such forums in formulating their road infrastructure development programs. A1.3.2 Indicators 5 (a, b), 6 (a, b, c, d), 7 (b, c ,d, e, h, i, j, k), 8 (a, b, c), 11 (a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i), 12, 13, 14, 15, 19, 22 (a, b), 23, 24, 25, 26, 30 (a, b) , 32 (a, b),require the agency to provide data either in absolute number or amount or in terms of percentage • For indicators 6 (a, b, c, d), 7 (h, i, k), 8 (a, c), 12, 13, 14, 15, 24, 25 and 26, information may also be provided for targets laid down for the current FY and next FY. • An illustration is provided to calculate indicator 13 in Table A1. CRN as on January 1, 2011 defined as under: length (Figures in km) Category of Road Less than 2 lane 2 lane 4 lane or more Total NHs 800 1800 400 3000 SHs 3300 1600 100 5000 MDRs 7400 600 Nil 8000 Others 20000 Nil Nil 20000 Total 31500 4000 500 36000 a. Condition of CRN: Assumed as under: • National Highways (NHs): Of roads with less than 2 lane carriageways, 20 percent are in poor condition, 30 percent in fair condition and the balance network is in good condition. • State Highways (SHs): Of roads with less than 2 lane carriageways, 40 percent are in poor condition, 40 percent in fair condition and the balance network is in good condition • Major District Roads (MDRs): Of roads with less than 2 lane carriageways, 60 percent are in poor condition, 20 percent are in fair condition, and the balance network is in good condition. • Others: Of roads with less than 2 lane carriageways, 60 percent are in poor condition, 20 percent in fair condition, and the balance network is in good condition. 78
A Review of Highway Agencies in the South Asia Region b. Average cost of construction (to be extracted from the information filled for indicator 11) except for other roads. For other roads, average unit costs as applicable to village roads may be adopted. • Cost per km, say, as on January 1, 2011 o Cost for new construction (2 lane) = `20 million per km o Cost for new construction (4 lane) = `70 million per km o Cost for new construction (less than 2 lane) = Assume it to be 50 percent of 2 lane new construction `10 million per km o Cost for new construction of rural roads = `2 million per km • These cost figures may be assumed as replacement value of the network in good condition. For roads in fair condition, the cost figures may be reduced by 20 percent of the values given above. For roads in poor condition, the cost figures may be reduced by 40 per cent. c. Replacement value computations National Highways • Less than 2 lane: 800 km 20 percent, i.e., 160 km in poor condition, replacement value @ `6 million per km = `960 million 30 percent, i.e., 240 km in fair condition, replacement value @ `8 million per km = `1,920 million 50 percent, i.e., 400 km in good condition, its replacement value @ `10 million per km = `4,000 million • 2 lane: 1,800 km @ `20 million per km = `36,000 million • 4 lane or more: 400 km @ `70 million per km = `28,000 million Subtotal for NHs = `70,880 million State Highways • Less than 2 lane: 3,300 km 40 percent, i.e., 1,320 km in poor condition, replacement value @ `6 million per km = `7,920 million 40 percent, i.e., 1,320 km in fair condition, replacement value @ `8 million per km = `10,560 million 20 percent, i.e., 660 km in good condition, its replacement value @ `10 million per km = `6,600 million • 2 lane: 1,600 km @ `20 million per km = `32,000 million • 4 lane or more: 100 km @ `70 million per km = `7,000 million Subtotal for SHs = `64,080 million Major District Roads • Less than 2 lane: 7,400 km 60 percent, i.e., 4,440 km in poor condition, replacement value @ `6 million per km = `26,640 million 20 percent, i.e., 1,480 km in fair condition, replacement value @ `8 million per km = `11,840 million 20 percent, i.e., 1,480 km in good condition, its replacement value @ `10 million per km = `14,800 million • 2 lane: 600 km @ `20 million per km = `12,000 million Subtotal for MDRs = `65,280 million 79
