This restructuring paper seeks approval of: (i) the cancellation of the Logistic Platform activities (US$45.7 million) for which feasibility studies undertaken following project approval have proven not economically justified and financially viable (Subcomponent 3.1); (ii) the reallocation of the remaining IDA proceeds to the other components of the project and changes to the components and costs; (iii) the use of part of IDA resources (CFAF 8.5 billion, US$13.5 million equivalent) to finance resettlement costs related to the implementation of two Resettlement Action Plans (RAPs), at the request of the Recipient; (iv) a revision of the project development objective (PDO) and changes to the results framework to reflect changes in the project’s scope; as well as (v) other changes, such as changes to legal covenants, disbursement etimates, implementation schedule and changes to risk ratings. The request from the Government of Côte d’ Ivoire for the cancellation of Logistic Platform activities (US$45.7 million) and reallocation of remaining IDA resources to other activities, including the implementation of the two RAPs, was received on January 17, 2023. After assessment and further discussions with Government authorities, it is confirmed that part of the resources initially allocated to the Logistic Platform (US$53.6 million) will not be disbursed and should therefore be reallocated (US$33.6 million) and the balance (US$20.0 million) cancelled. 2. Background. The project was approved on June 29, 2018 and is expected to close on December 31, 2025. The total project amount is US$400.4 million equivalent, of which US$315.0 million from IDA credit resources, US$15.0 million is counterpart funding, and US$70.0 million from the private sector. The PDO is to support the improvement of urban management, logistics efficiency, port accessibility, and urban mobility in the GAA1 and to provide immediate and effective response to eligible crisis or emergency. The project is structured around four main components (fifth is a Contingent Emergency Response Component (CERC)): (1) Urban Planning, Services and Governance (US$74.0 million equivalent, of which US$73.0 million from IDA and US$1.0 million counterpart funding); (2) Urban Transport Infrastructure (US$173.3 million equivalent, of which US$164.3 million IDA and US$9.0 million is counterpart funding); (3) Logistics Services and Competitiveness (US$142.2 million equivalent, of which US$67.2 million from IDA, US$5.0 million is counterpart funding, and US$70.0 million from the private sector); and (4) Program Management and Monitoring (US$10.5 million equivalent from IDA). A key activity in Component 2 is the construction of the Abidjan bypass expressway (Y4) connecting the Autoroute de l’Est (A1) and Autoroute du Nord (A3) highways (Section 2) and the latter to Route de Dabou (Section 3, in the west). This bypass will significantly enhance access to and travel within the GAA, thus reducing congestion in the center. The project aimed at improving the port accessibility thanks to the construction of a logistics platform to be implemented under a public-private partnership (PPP) framework. 3. Project performance. Since August 2022, the PDO has been rated moderately unsatisfactory (MU) because activities to achieve the port accessibility dimension are no more feasible. Since December 2021, the overall Implementation Progress (IP) has also been rated as MU, mainly due to: (i) difficulties in the implementation of the Logistics Platform and (ii) delays in the commencement of works, following Government difficulties to mobilize resources (US$17.7 million) for the financing of the implementation of the RAP for Section 2 and Section 3 of the Abidjan bypass expressway. Under the project, one Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF2) and four RAPs were prepared and 1 The GAA covers the metropolitan area of Abidjan and consists of 19 municipal jurisdictions, of which 13 are under the Autonomous District of Abidjan (District Autonome d’Abidjan, DAA) (Abobo, Adjamé, Anyama, Attécoubé, Bingerville, Cocody, Koumassi, Marcory, Plateau, Port-Bouët, Songon, Treichville, and Yopougon) and six are surrounding municipalities (Grand-Bassam, Bonoua, Alépé, Azaguié, Dabou, and Jacqueville). 2https://documents.worldbank.org/en/publication/documents-reports/documentdetail/985991519650696976/cadre-de-politique-de- reinstallation Page 4 of 23 The World Bank GREATER ABIDJAN PORT - CITY INTEGRATION PROJECT (P159697) disclosed: (1) the RAP for the Akwaba roundabout (on February 26, 20183); (2) the RAP for the Development and Rehabilitation of Road Transport Infrastructure of the Abidjan Port area (on February 27, 20184); (3) the RAP and updated RAP for Section 2 (on October 11, 20225 and March 06, 2023, respectively); and (4) the Section 3 RAP on June 14, 20236. Although the actual disbursement rate is only 26 percent, as of June 1, 2023, 72 percent of the IDA credit are already committed. With the present restructuring, activities are expected to be completed well before the project closing date. 4. PDO and IP status. Both the PDO and IP ratings for the project are rated MU. The “port accessibility” objective of the PDO is no more achievable because it is directly linked to the Logistics Platform, supposed to be used by trucks which would not continue to station in the port’s area (and therefore the related indicator “Number of trucks stationed in informal parking in the PAA area” would not be met). IP MU status is mainly due to: (i) difficulties in the implementation of the Logistics Platform and (ii) delay in the start of works, because of Government difficulties to mobilize resources for the financing of the implementation of the RAPs for Section 2 and Section 3 of the Abidjan bypass expressway. With the present restructuring and the payment of RAPs (two months to make the payments and prepare the report to be submitted to the World Bank), both IP and PDO ratings should improve: works will start for the two remaining major contracts as contractors are already fully mobilized. As a result, commitments are expected to be around 85 percent and disbursements will reach 50 percent by December 2023. 5. Rationale for cancelling Subcomponent 3.1 – Logistics Platform. The general objective of Subcomponent 3.1 is to relieve congestion in the port area. The project planned on financing the construction of a Logistics Platform at PK 24 of Autoroute du Nord (A3) that would serve as a dry port. However, feasibility studies funded by the project concluded that the logistics platform was not economically justified, nor financially viable. In fact it would result in a Double Handling (hence loss of operational performance) and would require excessive financial resources. Studies were conducted to find alternatives, in particular through the development of freight transport over the lagoon, but proved financially and technically difficult to implement within the framework of the project. 6. Rationale for reallocating funds between project components and disbursement categories. Following the cancellation of the activities on Logistics Platform in the amount of US$53.6 million and savings on other Component 3 activities (US$7.2 million), it is proposed to reallocate the resources (US$40.8 million after cancellation of US$20 million) to other components. US$0.1 million is reallocated to Component 4, and US$40.7 million is to be allocated to Component 2, which together with the savings made on Component 1 activities (US$5.9 million), will be used to finance the implementation of the RAPs (US$13.5 million) and cover the financing gap (US$33.1 million) of Section 3 of the bypass expressway (Y4). This Section 3 is critical to close the loop of the Y4, connecting Autoroute du Nord (A3) to Route de Dabou (southwest), increasing the contribution of the project to the reduction of congestion in the city center. 7. Rationale for modifying the PDO. Based on the assessment of what could be achievable and attributable to the project, the “port accessibility” part of the PDO is taken out, because it was expected to be achieved through the Logistics Platform. 3 https://documents1.worldbank.org/curated/en/377681519669325290/pdf/SFG4078-RP-FRENCH-P159697-PUBLIC-Disclosed-2-26-2018.pdf 4 https://documents1.worldbank.org/curated/en/680001519685494754/pdf/SFG4078-V5-REVISED-RP-FRENCH-PUBLIC-DIsclosed-2-27-2018.pdf 5 https://documents.worldbank.org/en/publication/documents- reports/documentdetail/099121503062338887/p1596970f105ed0708b8303c449d8c135d 6 https://documents.worldbank.org/en/publication/documents- reports/documentdetail/099061423132597190/p15969705f820208008f330f7b46b75944b Page 5 of 23 The World Bank GREATER ABIDJAN PORT - CITY INTEGRATION PROJECT (P159697) 8. Rationale for financing resettlement costs from IDA resources. The construction works contracts for Section 2 (US$52.3 million) and Section 3 (US$72.1 million) have respectively been awarded in February 2021 and March 2022. For both sections, the start of construction works is awaiting the implementation of the RAPs, the costs of which (about US$17.7 million7) cannot be entirely financed by the Recipient’s resources. The RAP related to Section 2 has been cleared. The contractors have already mobilized and are ready to commence the works. IDA resources will be used to fill the RAPs financing gap estimated in the amount of US$13.5 million. The use of IDA funds to finance the two RAPs was approved by regional management on May 8, 2023. II. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED CHANGES 9. The proposed changes under this restructuring are summarized as follows: a) PDO. The revised PDO is “to support the improvement of urban management, logistics efficiency, and urban mobility in the Greater Abidjan Area, and to provide immediate and effective response to eligible crisis or emergency”. The “port accessibility” objective is removed. The related intermediary result indicators are canceled. b) Results framework. The indicator related to the Logistics Platform will be removed and some indicators will be revised to capture the changes in resources reallocation. c) Cancellation of IDA proceeds. The amount of Euros 19.2 million (about US$20.0 million) is cancelled from current project amount of Euros 260.5 million (about US$315.0 million). After restructuring, the new IDA credit amount will be Euros 241.3 million (about US$295.0 million8). d) Changes to Components and Cost. The new IDA credit amount is reallocated, with an increase into Component 2 (including the financing of resettlement costs) and Component 4 while Components 1 and 3 are reduced, as shown in the table below.

Category 2 of expenditures (relating to Part 3.1 of the project) is reduced to the expenses already incurred for the feasibility studies of the Logistics Platform (Euros 1.6 million), and the remaining resources reallocated to (i) Category 7 (newly created) relating to land expenditures for resettlement; and (ii) Category 1. f) Overall Risk rating. The overall risk is downgraded from High at project approval to Substantial: (i) the Environmental and Social risk is downgraded from High to Substantial, given that all the detailed instruments have been prepared (including negotiations with the Project Affected Persons (PAP)), cleared and disclosed, and the residual risks remain with implementation only; (ii) the technical design of the project is now rated Moderate (rated High at project approval), because all the studies have now been completed, and the residual risks are limited to variations during works execution; and (iii) Institutional capacity (rated Substantial at approval) is now Moderate, with the improvements noted at the main works implementing agency (Road Management Agency) and the fact that a technical assistant was recruited to support the project implementation unit (PIU) and implementing agencies in works supervision. g) Legal Covenants. The covenant relating to the mobilization of counterpart funding to finance RAPs (initially US$ 15 million) is reduced to US$ 5.6 million, to reflect the funding already mobilized by the Government to initiate the payment of land expenditures relating to the RAPs. h) Implementation and Institutional Arrangements. An additional seasoned social safeguards specialist or consultant will be hired to speed-up the implementation of the two RAPs (other RAP financial execution arrangements are provided in Annex 1). i) Implementation schedule / Disbursement estimates. The Implementation Schedule is adjusted (as reflected in the revised Disbursement estimates table) to be aligned to the new commencement date of large civil works contracts (September 2023, instead of January 2020 as initially planned).

Page xx of 23 The World Bank GREATER ABIDJAN PORT - CITY INTEGRATION PROJECT (P159697) Annex 1 – Details on the resettlement compensation execution 1. Proposed expenditures for cash compensation. IDA resources would be used to finance the following expenditures related to resettlement costs as follows for the two road sections: Consolidated Number of PAPs* Amounts (US$) Loss of land and buildings 749 14,074,161 Compensation for loss of income 368 2,961,258 Removal and rehousing assistance 77 7,441 Livelihood restoration 460 324,675 RAP implementation 324,675 Total 17,692,212 Page 21 of 23 The World Bank GREATER ABIDJAN PORT - CITY INTEGRATION PROJECT (P159697) 2. Valuation of compensation. The compensation valuation criteria are described in the RAPs. These criteria comply with OP4.12 requirements. The main characteristics of the compensation valuation involves: (i) establishing and disseminating a cut-off date; (ii) undertaking public consultation and detailed PAP consultation to identify identity and entitlement, discuss the proposed valuation as per replacement cost; (iii) identify required assistance and livelihoods restoration measures; and (iv) discussing preferred payment modalities before works execution. Replacement cost is defined as a method of valuation compensation sufficient to replace assets, plus necessary transaction costs associated with asset replacement. The process involved the establishment of an accessible and functional Project Grievance redress mechanism (GRM) to receive and address concerns related to resettlement or any other project related issue. 3. Implementation arrangements. The overall responsibility for the implementation of the project is vested in the Project Coordination Unit (PCU) in charge of World Bank-funded transport projects (known as PRICI-PCU), which has satisfactorily managed many RAPs’ preparation and implementation during the last decade. The PCU is fully staffed and includes, inter alia, a social safeguards specialist, a financial management (FM) specialist and accountants per project. All these staff have experience in RAP implementation on the abovementioned projects. However, an additional support with a seasoned social safeguards specialist or consultant will be needed to speed-up the implementation of these two RAPs. 4. Channeling of funds. Funding for the cash compensation/other assistance in cash under the RAP will be channeled through the designated account for the proposed project. Compensation payment vouchers/checks will be processed by the PCU. Where required, PAPs will be assisted in obtaining their national identity documents and opening a bank account. 5. The PCU will notify the individual PAPs of the dates and time for issuing the payment vouchers/checks, as well as their resettlement entitlements, with a detailed breakdown of compensation and other assistance in cash due in connection to involuntary resettlement under the project, in accordance with the RPF and RAP, and consistent with the requirements of OP4.12. The Project Implementation Manual (PIM) specifies the administrative process and accountabilities and responsibilities for use of IDA financing to pay compensation: (a) payments are made (i) in cash for amounts not exceeding CFAF 300,000; (ii) by checks for amounts between CFAF 300,000 and CFAF 5,000,000; and (iii) by bank transfer for amounts over CFAF 5,000,000; (b) the PAP during the payment is accompanied by the non- governmental organization (NGO) responsible for assisting the people affected, and the PAP immediately receives (i) a clearing certificate; and (ii) a payment receipt. 6. Project Risk. The FM risk is rated Moderate but will be upgraded to Substantial given the involvement of multi-layered approval processes and potential deviations inherent to the payment of cash compensation (misuse of funds, conflicts or disputes relating to payments etc.). The PIM includes special arrangements to ensure that the right amount is paid to the right beneficiaries at the right time: payments will be made in the presence of a bailiff who certifies that the people paid are those really impacted and that the amounts paid are those stopped in the minutes of negotiation and registered in the RAP. 7. The following measures will be taken to mitigate the fiduciary risk: (i) An in-depth review of all payments will be carried out every semester during FM implementation support missions in addition to the quarterly reviews to be conducted by the internal auditor of the project; (ii) In addition to the regular financial audits of the project, a special opinion of cash compensation will be issued by the external auditor; and (iii) to increase transparency with regard to information Page 22 of 23 The World Bank GREATER ABIDJAN PORT - CITY INTEGRATION PROJECT (P159697) dissemination, the PCU will inform beneficiaries through appropriate channels and update regularly the World Bank by providing comprehensive information including the internal audit reports and budgets. 8. The other possible risk relates to the Recipient’s expectation to use IDA financing for involuntary resettlement on future projects. While this is a distinct possibility, the Recipient will be informed that financing of compensation expenditures is considered on a case-by-case basis, and that this requires clearances and approval to be undertaken internally by IDA. It will further be communicated that approval of IDA resources for resettlement costs for this Project has taken into account the significant financial challenges currently faced by the Recipient. 9. Monitoring and Evaluation. The RAPs have clear monitoring and evaluation actions to be undertaken by the Recipient. This will be expanded to include periodic checks by the World Bank safeguards team through field visits and audio discussions on the status of released funds, completed payments, follow-up on the functioning of Grievance Redress Mechanism, and resolution of grievances, among other measures. At the end of implementation, the Recipient will submit a RAP implementation completion report detailing all accountabilities, processes, challenges, and lessons learnt among others. This will be reviewed and cleared by the World Bank and it will be part of the project Implementation Completion and Results (ICR) Report so that the ICR duly reflects that resettlement implementation has been duly completed.
