The result monitoring will start from the second year of project implementation. 2 Current average speed for cars, buses, and trucks is around 30 km/hr, 25 km/hr, and 20 km/hr, respectively. 3 20 percent reduction in the average travel time for cars, buses, and trucks from the pre-construction level. 4 The rating is based on a comprehensive road safety assessment procedure developed by the International Road Assessment Program. This indicator will apply to the 300 km roads for widening and strengthening on which the road safety countermeasures will be applied. 5 Sum of the districts (i) preparing annual maintenance plans using the asset management module of APCP; (ii) using a performance-based or other system of maintenance contracting for state roads; (iii) having a web-based system allowing road inventory and condition data for state roads for public viewing; and (iv) using computerized workflow of APCP for project management. Maximum value of this indicator could be four times the number of districts in the state, i.e., 88 (four times 22).
