Overall Comments IR Progress has been made in having the client to better report on project progress. However, the Task Team has clearly highlighted the need for further improvements and will be working closely with the client to ensure reaching such an outcome. In addition, the Team has informed the client on the need to comply with the IDA Results Measurement System (IDA RMS) and therefore to track development results in transport projects across IDA-supported investment operations. In this context, the client was informed on the need to have a World Bank Corporate indicator specific to Transport Sector Corporate Results Indicators (CRIs) incorporated into SCRTP's M&E: “People with enhanced access to transport services (number)”. The indicator will track the numbers of direct and indirect beneficiaries through the project interventions and subsequently help to strengthen the importance of transport infrastructure for economic development.
