2 FINANCIAL PLAN
2.1 INTRODUCTION
The Roads Authority Act (Act 17 of 1999) assigns the RA with the responsibility of managing
the national road network with a view of attaining a safe and efficient roads sub-sector in
Namibia. The mandate requires sufficient financial resources for undertaking the various
activities needed for the development and preservation of the road network including
preparing master plans and feasibility studies, operating road management systems,
implementing road construction and rehabilitation projects, carrying out routine and periodic
maintenance of all paved and unpaved roads. The Authority must also control the movement
of heavy vehicles for preventing the damage of roads and bridges due to excessive loads
and manage the Namibia traffic information system as assigned by the Ministry of Works
and Transports.
This five-year Roads Authority Budget covering the financial years 2018/19 to 2022/23 is
presented to the Road Fund Administration (RFA) in accordance with subsections 20(1) and
20(2) of the Road Fund Administration Act, 1999 (Act 18 of 1999). The budget has been
approved by the Board of Directors of the Roads Authority and the Board of Directors of the
Road Fund Administration (see Appendix A) in terms of the provision of the Roads Authority
Act, Act 17 of 1999 and by Government through the Ministry of Finance.
The preparation of the budget was guided by the following key planning documents: The
Roads Authority Strategic Plan 2015/16 – 2017/18 and the Medium to Long Term Road
Master Plan (MLTRMP) (2012 revision). In line with the MLTRMP and the National
Development Plan (NDP4), the Strategic Plan defines targets to be achieved against the
Authority’s Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) as set by the Ministry of Works and Transport.
The preparation of the budget was further guided by the amount of funding that the RFA
could allocate to the Authority (See annexe 1) together with resources anticipated from
Government and our development partners. The amount of funding allocated for the
administration and operations of the Authority will impact on the achievements against most
of the indicators of the Strategic Plan.
2.2 ANALYSIS OF THE BUDGET
The Current Budget Cycle 2018/19 to 2022/23
The five-year budget of the Roads Authority is a rolling budget reviewed and updated
annually. Budget commitment and approval is limited to the current financial year 2018/19
while budgets for the ensuing financial years are indicative pending future review and
approval. Table 1 presents the five-year budget cycle for financial years 2018/19 to 2022/23
and the total for the 5 years. Table 2 and Figure 1 compare the total budget per financial
year in the current budget cycle to the previous cycle which covered the financial years
2017/18 to 2021/22. The comparison shows that the 2018/19 budget is at 83% of the amount
that was anticipated in the previous cycle. For the ensuing years, the 2019/20 is at the same
9
level as anticipated while the projected budget for 2020/21 exceeds the amount planned in
the previous cycle. The 2021/22 budget is lower than anticipated in the previous cycle. The
five-year total for the current cycle is N$19,834 million comparable to the N$15,809 of the
previous cycle (126%).

2.3 THE BUDGET FOR FY 2018/19 COMPARED TO FY 2017/18
Table 3 compares the current financial year budget to the budget of the just completed
2017/18 financial year. The analysis considers the two main budgetary allocations: the
operations budget and the administration budget. The operations budget provides for
expenditure on activities performed for the management of the road network and assigned
functions. The administration budget covers for the functioning of the Authority as an
organisation and as such, the budget amount is not directly related to the scope of work
performed for the management of the road network and assigned functions.
The comparison shows an improvement with a budget increase of 25% compared to the
previous total budget. Significant improvements in the operation budget are for the
Construction and Rehabilitation (61%) and for Road Transport and Inspection Services
(144%).

2.5 SOURCES OF FUNDS FOR THE BUDGET
Funding for the Roads Authority budget is sourced from the road user charging system
(RUCS) managed by the Road Fund Administration and from the Government through the
state revenue fund and loans and grants contracted by Government with cooperating
partners. For 2018/19 the RFA will contribute 59.6% of funds against 40.4% from
Government. For the total of the 5 years’ budget cycle Government contribution increases
to 47.2%.

Table 6 shows that Government contribution concentrates on road development projects
being: (i) the construction of highways; (ii) the upgrading of gravel roads to paved standard;
and (iii) the construction of new gravel roads. The RFA is essentially funding road
preservation: (i) road maintenance; and (ii) road rehabilitation in addition to other road
network management activities.
2.6 THE BUDGET IN PERSPECTIVE
The Budget and the MLTRMP Targets
The Medium to Long Term Roads Master Plan (MLTRMP) of 2012 defines funding targets
for the management of the road network for the period 2016 – 2030 which can be used to
benchmark the current budget. The assessment presented in
Table 7 indicates the following:
The 2018/19 budget allocation for road maintenance activities including routine,
reseal and gravelling is at N$1,212 million against N$1,362 million recommended by
the MLTRMP.
The budget is at 89% of the target and does not include any allocation for the
maintenance of bridges despite the recommended MLTRMP minimum of N$10
million.
13
The budget allocation for the rehabilitation of paved roads is at N$520.1 million
against the Master Plan target of N$398 million which is a 130.7% achievement. In
the evaluation, the Windhoek – Okahandja project is included as it covers the
rehabilitation of the existing road and upgrading to dual carriageway standard.
With regard to the rehabilitation of bridges, the budget allocated for 2018/19 is at
111% of the MLTRMP target with N$17.8 million against N$ 16 million required by
the Master Plan.
The 2018/19 budget allocation for the upgrading to paved roads standards excluding
the Windhoek-Okahandja road is N$902.1 million against N$138 million
recommended by the MLTRMP. The budget largely exceeds the target of the Master
Plan (654%) and this is mostly due to the implementation of the large projects under
the Harambee Prosperity Plan.
The 2018/19 budget allocation for the construction of new gravel roads is N$157.2
million at 157% of the MLTRMP target of N$100 million.
Overall, the 2018/19 operations budget exceeds by 39.5% the MLTRMP target. In this
comparison there is need to underline that the MLTRMP targets date from 2012 and have
not yet been updated to reflect changes in the road network and the cost of undertaking
preservation and development works. It may be anticipated in particular that the significant
road development programmes of upgrading gravel roads to bitumen standard that have
been implemented in recent years will impact on the needs for preservation and therefore
on target budgets for maintenance.
Table 7: Benchmarking the 2018/19 Budget to the MLTRMP
MLTRMP Target 2018/19 Budget Achievement
Routine maintenance 595,000,000

Total 2,014,000,000 2,809,217,605 140%
Preservation Versus Development
Table 8 compares the 2018/19 budget to the MLTRMP targets in terms of road preservation
and road development. The comparison shows that the budget for development is
N$1,358.9 million against N$1,450.3 million for preservation. The percentage for
development is bound to increase when all the Harambee projects come on stream,
specifically those financed by our cooperating partners. While the master plan aims at 88%
of the resources towards preservation, the budget achieves 51.6%.

The Budget and the Strategic Plan Indicators and Targets
Key Performance Indicators and Targets
The Roads Authority’s Strategic Plan includes key performance indicators and targets that
the Authority must achieve. The amount of funding has a direct impact on some of the key
performance indicators adopted in the strategic plan. Table 9 indicates those indicators and
the targets assigned by the Strategic Plan.
Table 9: RA Strategic Plan Key Performance Indicators and Targets
Key Performance Indicator (KPI) Baseline 2017/18 Target 2018/19

Number of road safety initiatives initiated 3 2
% Surfaced roads in unacceptable condition 7% 10%
% Gravel roads in unacceptable condition 46% 40%
% achievement on overload control strategies 99.3% 99.30
Estimated Impact of the 2018/19 Budget
The above indicators are measurable physical achievements which will be evaluated at the
end of the financial year. For estimating the impact of the 2018/19 budget allocations,
reference is made to the achievements of the previous financial year 2017/18. Comparing
the respective budgets provides an assessment of the likely impact on the achievement of
the Strategic Plan target for 2018/19.
It is understood that besides the budget, the annual physical output can be influenced by
other factors such as the intensity and period of rainfall, the tendering process and response
of the contractors and the actual performance of contractors and suppliers of the
construction industry on awarded contracts. Furthermore, the timeframe for implementation
of road projects generally exceeds one year. Therefore, achievements of the year depend
to a certain extent on the achievements of the previous years.
15
Table 10 presents the results of the assessment for the key performance indicators by
identifying the associated budget items and comparing budget amounts for 2017/18 and
2018/19 and achievements reported for 2017/18.

Overall it is anticipated that the achievements of 2018/19 financial year will be better than
those of the previous financial year 2017/18. However below target achievements can be
expected for indicators measuring the condition of unpaved and paved roads.
The budgets for maintenance have not increased significantly over the years and the of
2018/19 budget allocation for rehabilitation is unlikely to translate into measurable changes
within one year as rehabilitation works will span over more than one year.
