Description The primary objective of the project preparatory technical assistance will be to (i) prepare a Road Master Plan, and (ii) conduct a feasibility study for road projects that are accorded high priority. The Road Master Plan will map out a road network development strategy and program over the next 5-10 year period, with a main geographical focus on the central mountain region and other areas currently under-served by the national primary road network, and with proper considerations to providing connectivity to potential centers of economic activities such as mines and gas fields. Improvement of the highest priority roads, such as the east-west corridor to connect Herat to Kabul and two north-south corridors passing through the central mountain region, will be studied.
Linkage to Country/Regional Strategy The Transport National Programme PIP prepared by the Government for the 2005-2010 period identifies a list of road improvement priorities to be implemented in the next five years, in addition to completion of the regional highway network. This TA will complement the program prepared by the Government.
