INDIA: Himachal Pradesh State Roads Project [Ln. 4860-IN, Ln. 8199-IN]
Implementation Support Mission (July 11-15, 2016)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A World Bank mission visited Himachal Pradesh during July 11-15, 2016, to review and evaluate the
implementation progress towards the likelihood of achieving the project development objectives, and to
provide support to the Government of Himachal Pradesh (GoHP) in the implementation of the Himachal
Pradesh State Roads Project (HPSRP).
The achievement of the Project Development Objective is rated Moderately Satisfactory and
Implementation Progress rating has been maintained Moderately Satisfactory on account of the overall
progress of project activities.
1. STATUS OF THE OVERALL PROJECT
1.1. Overall: The project enters its 10 years of implementation. The original loan was closed on June 30,
2016 and the additional loan was extended by one more year to close on June 30, 2017. This will enable
complete outstanding project activities. The overall project progress since the last mission in November 205
has been good, although there is a huge outstanding work remaining to be completed within the remaining
implementation period.
Component-1 comprising of 12 road upgrading and two bridge out of which 7 road contracts have been
completed, 5 in progress and the 2 bridge contracts are also in progress. The overall physical progress has
reached 79% a 10% increase since the last mission. The three road contracts and the two bridge contracts
will be completed well within the loan period, but one of the road contracts may slip behind.
Component-2 comprising of core road network maintenance and related institutional development activities,
most of which have been completed including over 98% of the periodic maintenance works. Four of the six
planned performance based maintenance contracts have been awarded and being implemented. The
remaining two contracts are now reclassified and transferred to NH; hence will be dropped from the project.
A number of institutional development activities have been either completed or progressing well except two:
(i) transferring the management of core road network maintenance to RIDC and; (ii) creating a sustainable
road maintenance funding mechanism.
Disbursement and Loan Closure: The project disbursed $27.2 million from the original loan Ln-4860 in
FY 16 increasing the total disbursement till the end of June 2016 to $218.089 which represents 99.13% of
the loan. A further about $3 million worth of expenditure was booked during the same month of June 2016
which when claimed would exhaust the original loan amount of $220 million. The original loan was closed
as planned on June 30, 2016.
Project restructuring: Upon the request from the GoHP through DEA, the closing date of the additional
loan ($61.7 million) was extended to June 30, 2017.
1.2. Social and Environment Management
Environmental Safeguards: The implementation of environment management activities/works was rated
Moderately Satisfactory on account of some improvements made to address lists of Bank’s observation in
the last missions on noncompliance to the environmental safeguard requirements. There are however some
issues still recurring and need to be attended diligently including proper temporary water channelization at
bridge sites, workers health and safety, traffic precautionary signs traffic safety.

Social Safeguards: the implementation progress of social safeguards is Satisfactory. R&R activities are
progressing satisfactorily. The field visits revealed good attention paid by the PMU to land acquisition and
R&R aspects. Agreements to complete remaining LA and R&R as follows: (a) finalize inception report for
impact assessment study before August 25, 2016 (b) Complete minor additional LA in Package 5 (1) before
end September 2016; (c) finalize the data base on LA and R&R before end September 2016; (f) initiate
measures for undertaking capacity building and sustainability measures on LA and R&R in the PWD (see
Annex for details).
1.3. Procurement and Financial Management
Procurement is rated Moderately Satisfactory. The mission noted that most of the procurement activities
have been completed. A few under procurement need to be expedited.
Financial Management is rated Moderately Satisfactory. Disbursement from the World Bank as on June
30, 2016 for IBRD 48600 is USD 218.089 million which represents 99.13% of the loan of USD 220 million.
Disbursement under additional financing IBRD 81990, as of June 30, 2016 was NIL. The project progress
has to substantially improve to make use of the additional loan of $61.7 m in the course of the remaining
one year, which has never been the case in the past.
2. KEY ISSUES
2.1. Pace of implementation: the loan closing date has been extended by one year to enable the
completion of outstanding project activities, within which the project is expected to disburse about
$57 m in the loan. The pace of implementation of the two civil works contracts 5-I and 5-II is
critical to achieve this goal. RIDC, the supervising consultant and the contractors need to work as
one unit to this challenge.
2.2. Maintenance funding mechanism: The implementation of a sustainable road maintenance
funding mechanism has been overly delayed despite the issue being flagged in several missions.

This is one of the critical reforms to ensure sustainability of the current and any future investments
and ensure a healthy road network in the state. Recently the state is of the opinion that it does not
need to worry much on this issue, as a bulk of the state highways are now transferred to the National
Highways Authority of India. But the state is still responsible for a huge network of major district
roads and other district roads, which are a vital means of the state's surface transportation.

3. Project Development Objective (PDO).The development objective of the Project is to reduce
transport costs and to improve traffic flows on priority segments of the core road network of Himachal
Pradesh. This objective is to be achieved through a package of prioritized infrastructure investments and
improved management practices. The indicators to measure performance in achieving the development
objective are: (i) condition of the core network; (ii) speeds on the project upgrading roads; (iii) fatal accident
rate on the state highways and; (iv) the level of road user satisfaction on the core network. The mission
together with the GoHP reassessed the Project Development Objective (PDO) and concluded that the PDO

remains valid and it is likely to be substantially achieved by the end of the project. The progress in achieving
these performance indicators is presented at Annex 1.
4. Based on the progress of performance indicators, the progress in achieving the PDO is maintained
Moderately Satisfactory. The two PDO indicators namely increased average speed on the completed roads
and user satisfaction surveys have progressed well while the indicators -percentage of network in poor
condition and fatalities in road accident are yet to come down markedly to achieve the end project targets.

III. DETAILED PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION
Overall Implementation Progress: The Project consists of two components. The overall Implementation
Progress is rated as Moderately Satisfactory and the details are as follows.
Component – 1: Core Network Improvement Component (Moderately Satisfactory):
5.1 Overall: The MS rating for Implementation Performance was maintained owing to the average
rate of progress in civil works, i.e. about 10% since the last mission and the completion of two more contracts
namely package 4 bringing the total completed packages to 7. The progress in six of the seven ongoing civil
works promises their substantial completion before the loan closes on June 30, 2017. Improvement in quality,
better site management and compliance to environmental and social management are to be given sufficient
attention as physical progress start to speed up.
5.2 Highlights: As of the current mission, eight out of 14 contracts namely contracts 1, 2,3,4,7,8,
and 10 have been completed and taken over by PWD. Out of the ongoing seven contracts, two are bridge
contracts along packages 1 and 7 roads. The overall physical progress of civil works is 79% compared to
69% in November 2015. Packages 5-I and 5-II remain to be critical for the completion of all project activities
and achieving the PDO. RIDC/CSC and the contractors need to closely working together to ensure
completion of the within the time frame.
5.3 Contract 1: completed with exemplary quality and handed over to the RIDC in December 2014.
Defect liability period will be over in December 2015, no serious defects have been observed, as built
drawings have been submitted to the Employer.

5.4 Contract 1-B bridges: This contract consisting of 6 bridges and 2 minor drainage structures with
approach works has been awarded in August 2014 and works commenced in October 2014. The contractor’s
progress in mobilization, organization of the site and programming of works has continued to be satisfactory
and the physical as well as financial progress is about 63% an increase of by 32% since the last mission. The
likely completion of all works is March 2017.
5.5 Contract 2 has been completed and a final taking over has been made by RIDC, disputed
contractor’s final payment has been amicably settled and payment is being processed.
5.6 Contract 3: The package has been substantially completed and under the defects liability period
of the last section.
5.7 Contract 4 and the realignment section. The package has been substantially completed and under
the defects liability period of the last section.
5.8 Contract 5-I and 5-II: a notable increase in resources hence rate of progress has been noted in
both contracts, as such 5-I achieved 35% (an increase by 17%) since the last mission and 5-II achieved 57%
(an increase by 28% from the last mission). Contract 5-I seems to be needing more resources and better
management given the short period remaining under the contract. Efficient use of the available resources is
critical to increase outputs of all operations. Since both contracts belong to one contractor, the plan to move
resources that will soon be redundant in 5-II, to 5-II and subcontracting the structure works to third parties
by the contractor are all welcomed propositions and need to be pursued without further delay. Drawing
experiences from the management of the relatively performing contract 5-II is also beneficial. While 5-II is
likely be substantially completed on time, 5-I is likely to run beyond the current contractual completion date,
June 30, 2017, which coincides with the closing of the project loan. This calls for GoHP to proactively plan
option to finance the works that may spill over the loan closing date.
5.9 Contract 6-I and 6-II: both contracts continued to move with good pace, achieved 87% and 80%
respectively a huge increase since the last mission; expected to be completed by December 31, 2016. The
delay so far from the original completion time was attributed to the delays in quarry clearance and the
increase in the scope of protection works to minimize land requirements and demolition of properties. RIDC
and the supervision consultant need to ensure consistency in the quality of works and compliance with the
environmental and social safeguards requirements under the contract, which seems to be compromised in a
few sections for want of progress, which was stressed by the bank team as unacceptable and should be
remedied immediately.
5.10 Contract 7: new bridge works has been progressing well, but halted due to a major design change
following an extreme flood event happened in the monsoon of 2015, which was over and above the design
flood level. Both RIDC, CSC and the contractor are hopeful that the works would still be completed befor
June 2017.The contract is likely to be completed as per the plan provided that the current pace of progress
is maintained.
5.11 Contract 8 has been substantially completed and already taken over a year ago. Payment was
suspended on account of some surface cracking observed in few stretches and difference of opinion on final
quantities between the CSC/RIDC and the Contractor.
5.12 Contract 9 could have been completed before the current mission, but unprecedented land slide
has led to the contractor to take up a significant amount of additional works, including removal of slide
material, restoration of the damaged pavement by the slide, additional protection works to protect further
slide. However, all these works are expected to be completed by September 2016.

5.13 Contract 10 completed 3 years ago and all pending claims have been settled.
5.14 The table below summarizes the status of the civil works contract under Component 1.
Table: update of progress of civil works
Component– 2: Core Network Maintenance and Management (Moderately Satisfactory):
5.15 The rating for this component is maintained Moderately Satisfactory. About 98% of the
periodic maintenance works have been completed. Three PBMC contracts have been awarded out of planned
five, cancelling the two as these roads have been re-classified as NH are no more part of PWD’s road
network. RIDC/PWD is now preparing DPRs for 78 km of SH for PBMC, which should be considered
whether it is worth to include it under Bank financing. Important lessons are being drawn from these first
batch of contracts and being taken into account in the design of the second batch. On the institutional
development front, following the issuance of a notification more than a year ago by GoHP to implement the
transfer of the core road network to RIDC, not much has been done since the last one year. The state had
drafted a road policy that emphasizes on maintenance and its funding mechanism, which was considered a
good first step, however establishing the actual move to establishing a sustainable maintenance funding
mechanism did not get much traction. Establishing a sustainable road maintenance funding mechanism and
evolving RIDC into an agency to manage the core road network are activities agreed during the negotiations
of the additional financing to be implemented by PWD. The Bank team noted that PWD did neither seem
interested in these reforms nor did it present a case for their redundancy. The update of the status of each
activity under Component 2 is highlighted as follows.
5.16 Periodic maintenance: All the planned 1481 km periodic maintenance works phased in three
tranches have been procured. Tranche 1- 532 km and Tranche 2- 517 km works have been completed. In
Tranche-3 the maintenance of 394 km roads was completed, which brings the total of the three tranches to

completed by December 2016.
5.17 Long Term Performance Based Maintenance Contract (LTPBMC). Three packages (347 km out
of planned 446 km) in Mandi, Hamirpur and Shimla zones have been awarded. The remaining two state
highways in Kangra and Hamirpur zones planned for LTPBMC have recently been reclassified as NH and
taken out of PWD’s mandate hence no further contracts will be processed under the loan. are
5.18 Black spot improvement. 25 blackspot improvement works have been packaged in 9 contract and
awarded. As of the current mission all works have been completed successfully with only one package
remained to be completed. As agreed in the previous missions RIDC has now started to collect crash data
after the improvement in line with the same format used for the baseline, prepare a report about the change
in crash incidences and formulate the lessons learnt to inform the design of similar initiatives in the future.
Initial data shows signs of improvement on crashes, but could not be conclusive as the data is only for short
periods and need to be observed at least for a year at each black spot.
5.19 Road Accident Database Management System (RADMS). The Consultants for establishing
RADMS has completed the development of the system in all districts. The RADMS is now in place and
being implemented in all districts which is going very well. The server is now hosted in the state’s department
data center. 3880 crash data has been entered till July 2016, which TRL expects the annual data to be higher
than hitherto collected manually. The reporting module has the capability to generate ab 19 standard reports.
Thee data entry module for Health & Family Welfare department remains a challenge as the department is
yet to fully subscribe into the system. An Accident Management Cell (ADMC) is functioning well from the
office of the Director General of police. All the additional tablets recently purchased have been distributed
to the local police stations. The consultant has made a brief presentation of the status of implementation and
drew the mission’s attention on the following issues. The following action need to be taken.
Data is so far collected only by the police; important engineering (by PWD) and health (Health and
Welfare department) data related to the crashes are not being collected;
The recurring problem on data quality; and delays in data entry;
PWD/Police need to issue a Government order to users of the system to institutionalize the SOP;
The need for a continuous training for new entrant police officers; establish an in-house training
system to ensure sustainability;
the Possibility of hosting it in a cloud server should be explored vigorously;
Follow up the GIS to be installed through PMGSY to link it with RADMS
Explore the possibility and make a decision to purchase a google map to run the

5.20 Road Maintenance Financing. A year ago PWD shared with the Bank team a draft road policy
which included road maintenance funding. Further PWD agreed to carry out an assessment of the existing
maintenance situation and funding mechanism through an independent consultant with the objective of
identifying the scope for improvements and eventual implementation.

5.21 RIDC’s expanded mandate. The GoHP issued a notification to all concerned that RIDC is
entrusted to manage the state’s core road network. PWD thereafter was supposed to prepare an organization
manual for RIDC’s expanded mandate including structures, functions, responsibilities, workflows, etc. and
this was supposed to be completed in 2015, but was never the case. The mission once again cautioned PWD
that failing on this task would jeopardize a sustainable maintenance management of the road network. While
PWD continues to promise the reform would be done, the Bank team felt that PWD seems to be disinterested
in the reform. Recently PWD informed the mission that a chunk of the core road network (18. SHs 1466.300
Km and 53 MDRs 2144.915 Km) is now reclassified as NH and are to be transferred to National Highways
Authority, and not so much of the network left to be transferred to RIDC.
5.22 Project Management System: the consultant hired to develop electronic based project
management system, has completed the system development stage, and the data entry task had started by
contractors of active packages. The team was concerned that the data collection from each package is taking
longer. The mission felt that the system faced two key challenges in its implementation; (i) responsible and
reliable unit to enter data on time and, (ii) intensiveness of the data at the current capacity. The last mission
in November 2015, recommended as part of the consultants post system development responsibility, RIDC
needs to work with the consultant to identify a data collection unit and limit the data collection to the
essentials while keeping the flexibility of the system for future expansion as capacity increases. RIDC was
not able to report on the progress in this front rater, recently the corporation requested the Bank’s
INDIA: Himachal Pradesh State Roads Project (Ln. 4860-IN) Aide-Memoire
Implementation Support Mission July 11-15, 2016
11
concurrence for an amendment to include an annual maintenance contract of one year; and the acquisition
of 85 additional licenses. The bank agreed to the AMC but could not see a clear case for such a huge number
of licenses at the very end of the project.

6. Construction Supervision. The mission observed that the performance of the construction
supervision consultants (CSC) has remained to be a concern with the same gap continued to be seen in this
mission. The mission once again reiterated the CSC pay attention to the following and RIDC ensures these
are complied with by the CSC:
Ensure each contract has a resource based work program, which is a key to manage any civil works
contract, as contractors proved to be weak in this aspect, provide them with guidance as
appropriate for them to be able to produce a realistic work program;
Use the work program to base any communication with the Employer and Contractors, informing
how ahead or behind the actual work progress is w.r.t to the WP, advise if the WP is no more
relevant and its appropriate revision;
Advise the contractor on the adequacy of its human, equipment, material resources in line with
the work program as revised from time to time;
Timely respond to any contractor’s requests for possible variation instruction when required,
process variations including timely issuing the instruction and determining rates for new items,
issuing designs and drawings in a reasonable period of time;
Ensuring the deployment of qualified staff in the CSC’s team;
Produce a quality progress report focusing on every aspect of the contract management, not merely
focusing on physical and financial progress, but the social, environmental, safety, and construction
quality, claims, etc. in a succinct but informative manner;
Revise the cost estimates of each contracts quarterly with appropriate back up for the revisions.
Environmental Management
7. Although the overall compliance with the environmental management in the ongoing contracts is
generally acceptable there are areas which requires proper attention by all the parties in the contract,
Contractor, CSC and RIDC. The most concern has been in contracts 6-I and 6-II namely poor handling of
outflows from road ways, absence of barricades and safety measures on structure construction sites, the
handling of live power cables need to be improved immediately.
Social Safeguards
8. The implementation of R&R activities is progressing satisfactorily. The field visits revealed good
attention paid by the PMU to land acquisition and R&R aspects. Agreements to complete remaining LA and
R&R as follows: (a) finalise inception report for impact assessment study before August 25, 2016 (b)
INDIA: Himachal Pradesh State Roads Project (Ln. 4860-IN) Aide-Memoire
Implementation Support Mission July 11-15, 2016
12
Complete minor additional LA in Package 5 (1) before end September 2016; (c ) finalise the data base on
LA and R&R before end September 2016; (f) initiate measures for undertaking capacity building and
sustainability measures on LA and R&R in the PWD (see Annex for details).
ICT systems
9. Project management Consultant (for ICT infrastructure): The as-is study identified deficiencies
in the existing systems, there are many applications independently running in the PWD lacking
synchronization with one another; data collected manually in the filed but entered centrally example being
RMMS, which however could easily be done at the filed level with the right system in place. The consultant
recommended 25 modules to efficiently handle the PWD processes. The recommendation provides two
options to PWD to choose from: the option of developing a new system altogether or adopt the e-IHP
software earlier developed in other GoHP department. The mission was informed that there was inter
departmental discussion on the possibilities of adopting e-IHP which was already in advanced stage of
development; but PWD pushed back as e-IPH lacks quite a number of features PWD intends to have as part
of the new IT system. The procurement of the system integrator has to be expedited.
Procurement
10. Procurement performance during the review period is rated as Moderately Satisfactory.
11. This assessment is based on the quality of documentation such as Technical Evaluation reports,
Draft Contracts, Amendments to the contracts etc. submitted for Bank’s review
12. The updated Procurement plan was shared with the mission and the same was discussed. Any
additional packages of goods and equipment being planned for procurement under the project should be
added in the procurement plan and sent across to the Bank for review and acceptance.
13. Civil Works: All the packages of civil works have been awarded. Since the last mission, there has
been progress of the Packages ICB 6 pkg - II, NCB 6 pkg -I and it gives a reasonable assurance that the
works would be completed by the present project closing date.
14. The progress on the ICB 5 pkg-I, NCB 5 pkg -II, is slow and not in line with the implementation
plans. The mission informed the RIDC to critically look into the implementation and carry out close
monitoring of these packages.
15. It is reiterated again that there has to be a credible resource-based work program prepared for each
package and approved by the Engineer which then needs to be monitored by RIDC on a continuous basis so
as to get the works completed prior to the project closing date.
16. Consultancy Services: The selection of consultant for feasibility of about 2000 kms and detailed
engineering / safeguard assessment of about 500 kms was unsuccessful, and RIDC is considering a second
round selection process with an intention to seek a preparatory funding from the Bank to finance the services..
The contract for the Consultancy Services for carrying out Terminal Impact Evaluation of the
implementation of RAP for all road upgradation packages of HPSRP, is being awarded

Financial Management
17. Highlights: Financial Management performance is rated Moderately Satisfactory. Disbursement
from the World Bank as on June 30, 2016 for IBRD 48600 is USD 218.089 million which represents 99.13%
of the loan of USD 220 million. After submission of IUFR ending June 30, 2016, the disbursement under
this loan will be 100%. The disbursement under additional financing IBRD 81990, which became effective
on March 8, 2013, is currently NIL. However, it is expected that the entire additional financing (Rs. 4134
million in INR terms) would be disbursed by the extended closing date of the loan. The internal audit function
is working satisfactorily with reports till quarter ending March 2016 have been shared with the Bank. The
report for half year ending September 2016 shall be shared with the Bank by November 30, 2016. The
external audit report for previous FY was submitted in time and is unqualified. However few inconsistencies
were reported in both internal and external audit report, against contract execution particularly in payment
terms, VAT payment etc.
Detailed Status
18. The implementation support mission reviewed the continuing adequacy of the financial
management arrangements at the project and the progress made on the action plan agreed during the previous
mission. The recent developments and key issues are highlighted below:
19. Budget and Disbursements: As against a budgetary grant of Rs 2,900 million for FY 2015-16,
the project has incurred an expenditure of Rs. 3,130 million. The carryforward balance from previous year
was also used for the current year disbursement. For FY 2016-17, a budget of Rs 3,895 million has been
allocated for the project. Expenditure till June 30, 2016 is Rs. 816 million. The project is regular in
submission of IUFRs and claims till month ending June 20, 2016 have been filed. Disbursement from the
World Bank as on date stands at USD 218.089 million, which represents 99.13% of the loan of USD 220
million. The designated account advance has been fully recovered. Disbursement under additional financing
IBRD 81990, which became effective on March 8, 2013, is still NIL.
20. The project team has been advised to submit application for expenditure for the period ending June
30, 2016 to exhaust the remaining balance in IBRD 48600. The balance expenditure which could not be
disbursed under IBRD 48600 can be claimed under the follow on loan IBRD 81990.
21. The closing date of IBRD 81990 has been extended for one year, and the project is optimistic in
withdrawing the maximum loan amount. The project has shared the statement of future commitments.
22. Finance Staffing: During the previous missions, it was informed to the Bank that it had been
proposed to transfer the work of Finance wing of HPRDIC from HPIDB to in-house staff of HPPWD.
However, it has now been decided that the existing arrangements shall continue and any change in the
existing arrangements shall be looked at only for the second phase.
23. Internal audit: The existing internal auditors M/s Soni & Rustogi Chartered Accountants have
been decided to extend the contract till closing of the project in the 80th board meeting held on October 29,
2015. During the last mission, the project was asked to share the internal audit report for period ended
December 31, 2015. The same was shared during the mission. Also the team has shared with the Bank team
that the audit report for the period ending March 31, 2016. Few inconsistencies were reported with respect
to contract execution, particularly in payment terms, VAT payment, non-deduction of works contract tax,
non-recovery of mobilization and material advance etc.
24. It was noticed that the payments were made directly to the sub-contractors and suppliers on behalf
of the contractor under package 3. This amounts to approximately Rs. 144 million. This appears inconsistent
with the contract terms. The project team was advised to stop payments directly to the sub-contractors, unless
agreed with the Bank. Also, the project has been advised to expand the scope of the internal audit in
reviewing the adequacy of the payments with the contract terms.

25. External Audit: The audit report for FY 2014-15, furnished by M/s Anil K Sood & Co, had been
shared with the Bank by the project e-mail dated October 17, 2015. The project audit report submitted by
the AG has been reviewed and found to be acceptable. The project has continued to follow suitable financial
management practices for the benefit of the project. However, there are audit paras in the entity audit report,
which reports few inconsistencies in the contract executions, particularly in payment terms, VAT payment,
non-deduction of works contract tax, non-recovery of mobilization and material advance, pre-release of
retention money, awarding contracts against the guidelines, non-deposit of Government dues, inappropriate
calculation of price escalation etc. There are few audit paras pending since FY 2007-08. The team has been
advised to address these issues and arrange to drop the audit paras as soon as possible.
26. ISR FM Rating: Based on the above, project Financial Management performance is rated
Moderately Satisfactory.

Project Management
28. RIDC Staffing. RIDC is doing reasonably well in terms of discharging its responsibility. As more
contracts are now coming to an end, it is inevitable to settle outstanding disputes, RIDC management staff
need to be harnessed with dispute resolution skills including amicable settlement and arbitrations. When
RIDC assumes its long term responsibility of the core road network management function, the staffing has
to be entirely revisited as part of the task to reorganize RIDC to take over the CRN management
responsibility from PWD. For the current project, GoHP is requested to ensure continuity of the project
management team.
29. Project Monitoring and Reporting. The mission requested RIDC to continue to use the agreed
Project Report format (which contains 8 excel-based reports and has been agreed at the project appraisal
stage) to monitor project progress. The mission requested RIDC to regularly update the Project Report and
forward it to the Bank within 15 days after every quarter. The CSC produces a quarterly progress report for
the civil works, excluding maintenance. There is still no mechanism of reporting all other project activities
except the information captured in the above said excel-based tables.
30. Performance Monitoring Indicators (PMI).The mission and RIDC jointly reviewed the PMIs and
updated the value of PMI indicators based on available information. The mission noted that for one of the
outcome indicators to measure increase in average speed in completed roads, RIDC was able to establish
data on baseline and current speed in collaboration with HP Transport Department. The second user
satisfaction survey has been completed and the consultant made a presentation during the mission. The
status of achievement of the performance indicators is presented in Annex 1.

31. Information Disclosure .The mission reviewed two key transparency aspects on the project i.e.
information disclosure and complaint handling mechanism to deal with various types of complaints. RIDC
continued to handle complaints lodged through the website as well as manually.
32. Compliance with Loan Covenants. The status of compliance of the Project and Loan Agreement
covenants is in Annex 2. All covenants are in compliance.
33. Next Implementation Support Mission. The next full implementation support mission is

Annex 6
Detailed Mission Comments on Upgrading Works
The Component 1 (Core Network Upgrading) of the project envisages upgrading of 437 km of roads in the
Core Road Network (CRN). RIDC initially started implementing this component through 10 contract
packages in two phases. However, in the course of implementation the following changes were made: (a)
packages 5 and 6 performed very badly and were terminated, and later each split into two contracts (5-I, 5-
II, 6-I and 6-II) and retendered; (b) an amicable agreement between RIDC and the contractor led to the
removal of the bridge works from contract 1 and tendered separately; and (c) a missing bridge in contract 7
from the original contract was included in the project and tendered separately; raising the total number of
contracts to 14 (7in phase-I and 7 in Phase-II).
Table: update of progress of civil works
Phase 1 Works: All seven civil works contract packages of phase 1 upgrading works, which constitute a
total length of 232 km, were awarded at a total contract price of Rs 7495 million. Four out of the seven
contracts 1, 2, 3 and 4 have been completed and the three contracts 1-B, 5-I and 5-II are at various stages of
implementation 63, 36 and 57 percent progress respectively.
Phase 2 Works: All seven civil works contracts of phase 2 upgrading works, which constitute a total length
of 203 km, were awarded at a total contract price of Rs 4711 million. Three out of the seven contracts 7, 8,
and 10 have been completed and the four contracts 6-I, 6-II, 7-B and 9 are at various stages of
implementation: 87, 80, 75 and 87 percent progress respectively..
The mission, along with the officials of RIDC, the respective PMUs and the Supervision Consultants, visited
packages 1-B, 5(I), 5 (II), 6 (I), and 6 (II) and then discussed the progress of Works with the respective
contractors and the PIU team.

and taken over by RIDC in October 2014. All outstanding bills have been settled except the labor cess, which
RIDC promised to finalize by the end of July 2015.
Package 1-B: Mehatpur-Una-Jahalera-Amb Structure Works, Contractor: S. P. Singla Pvt. Ltd. The
contract was awarded and signed in October 2014 to M/s S.P. Singla Pvt. Ltd at a contract price of INR660
million. The mission observed that the package continues to progress at moderate speed by taking up five
of the seven major bridge and structure works. However there seem to be an overall slippage compared to
the contract time lapsed, i.e., 62% physical progress vs 72% of the revised time of completion lapsed. The
mission recorded that only one major and one minor bridges have been completed and the remaining seven
structures are at various stages of implementation promising completion by the end of the calendar year.
However the contractor was instructed to construct one 72 m long bridge alongside the same length bridge
at change 16+860 to provide a four lane crossing in line with the road standard in the Una city. This addition
led to the extension of time of completion to June 2017.
The mission noted a state of indecision on the CSC end regarding the type of foundation design given the
physical difficulties of demolishing an existing old bridge foundation. The Bank team urged the contractual
parties to expeditiously resolve based on the available options and finalize the design by mid-August 2016.
Package 2: Una-Bangana-Barsar Road; Contractor: C&C Construction Limited (Length revised to
44.7km from 44.823km): This contract was completed in December 2012 and the DLP of the final
milestone ended in December 2013. Final bills including payments related to disputes settled amicably have
been paid.
Package 3: Barsar-Jahu Road; Contractor: C&C Construction Limited (originally 45.8 km long and
now modified to 46.03km): The contract is now completed and provisionally taken over.
Package 4: Jahu-Kalkhar Road; Contractor: ANS Construction Limited (length about 15.4km): The
contract is now completed and provisionally taken over.
Package 5-I, Theog- Kotkhai- Kharapatthar, Km 0.000 to Km 48.000, Contractor: C & C
Construction limited. The scope of the total works under this project is about 39 km in a stretch of 48 km
of original contract; as some of the works have been executed under the terminated the previous contract.
The physical progress at the end of June 2015 was 36 %, vs 76% of the revised contract time, and 17%
progress since the last mission in November 2015. This is an improved rate of progress, but by far less than
required to complete the works within the revised contract time. The available construction period is about
6 months and the contractor is expected to achieve about 11% per working month or 6.3% in each calendar
month, which was never the case in the contract’s life. The only positive aspect to hope for is the difficult
task of earthwork and rock cutting is by and large completed, resources from the neighboring contract (which
belong to the same contractor) could be shifted to boost the contractor’s performance in the following months.
One of the major problem in this contract is the absence of a qualified project manager capable of putting
together a resource based work program and able to use the existing physical and resources efficiently.

Construction limited. The progress made by June 30, 2015 was (57 %) within 76% of the revised contract
time, and 29% progress since the last mission in November 2015. This is a reasonable progress given the
available short dry weather period since then, and the challenges in dealing with traffic in one of the hilliest
corridor of the state with heavy freight traffic. However the progress is far from the level to achieve
completion by the planned contractual completion date. The contractor deployed a reasonable size of
earthwork machinery and opened a multiple operations in as many fronts as the terrain allows it to do so
thereby completing 24 km out of 25 km of earthworks as per the contracts scope; including gravelling of
this work by a granular sub base layer. About 19 km of this section is also covered by a bituminous macadam,
which provided a smoother riding surface and improved traffic flows in otherwise a difficult corridor. The
drainage and protection works could not keep up with the pace due to the shear increase in the scope, which
was not foreseen at the design stage. Deploying more teams as required should be done without further delay.

Km 79.100 to Km 103.370M/s, M. G. Contractors Private Limited: The physical progress as of June 30,
2015 was- 87% in contract –I and 80% in contract-II against 81 % of the revised contract time. This is an
increase of 43% and 31% respectively, which was considered good, and the contracts are on course to be
completed within the revised contractual period. The mission however noted some lapses in the management
of environmental aspects at site. The contractor needs to take care of live electric wires lying on the ground,
proper conveyance of drainage outflows from the carriageway to the natural drainage system, improve
pavement edge alignment and, avoid loose compaction at the edges, etc., proper barricading at cross drainage
construction sites.

draft final statement and processed by the Engineer. The mission was informed that all outstanding bills due
to amicable settlement are now paid..
Package 7-B Ranital Bridge: Contractor: J.C. Gupta Engineers & Contractors, Length – 102 M (3
X34 M+ Approach Length 200 M Approx.): The contract is moving at a good speed, with a progress of
75%. Due to unprecedented rainfall and rise in water level on 08.08.2015, the bridge design flood level was
overtopped by 2.561m. In consideration of the safety of Bridge structure, CSC and RIDC agreed to raise
the soffit level of the superstructure by increasing the heights of the supporting structures and changing the
design of superstructure in to a lighter one to compensate for the added weight of the substructure. The
Bank team suggested a further analysis of the design flood and whether the occurred flood has a frequent
return which undermines the original design before making the final decision. The completion is set for
September 14, 2016.
Package 8: Kumarhatti-Nahan Road; Contractor: Somdatt Builders Pvt. Ltd (about 71.7 km): The
contract is in its DLP and the contractor is attending to the defects notified by the Engineer as per the
recommendation of the independent assessment made by a professor from Punjab University. The mission
noted the difference in opinions regarding the final quantities of the work have been resolved, and the related
payment including for the rectification work if eligible, is yet to be settled, 2015.
Package 9: Draman-Sihunta Road; Contractor: NKG Infrastructure Ltd: The progress remains 87%
as recorded in the last mission due to the increase in scope triggered by unanticipated land lide in a number
of spots along the road, and the contractor would have to remove the slide, restore the damaged road, and
construct protection works, all of which have not been part of the original scope of work. The contract is
expected to be substantially completed by end September 2015.
Package 10: Bhawarna-Lambagaon Road; Contractor: Valecha – Dilip JV (approx length of road
26.28 km of Intermediate Lane road): The mission was informed that the DLP period is over and RIDC
took over the road; and the contractor submitted a draft final statement and being processed by the Engineer.
All outstanding bills are now settled.
Construction Supervision Consultant Contract (Louis Berger Group): During the site visits to the roads,
and subsequent discussions, it was clear that the supervision consultant has a lot to improve to play its role
as the Engineer under the contract. First and foremost the consultant is plagued by a frequent turnover of
resident engineers and replacing those takes longer and contracts are supervised by the RE from adjacent
contracts. Secondly, those REs on site are not conversant with the conditions of the contract and do not seem
to manage the contracts accordingly. They are not that helpful in analyzing what the implication of the delays
in the contracts, alerting the contractor on the amount of slippages, indication to the contractor and the
Employer the details of remedies to be done to catch up progress and other contractual actions to be taken.
RIDC needs to work better with the consultant to get proper reports with credible data on costs, progress and
claims. The quality of progress reports remains unreliable and inconsistent.

Detailed Discussions on Social Issues and Agreed Actions
Land Acquisition: The final assessment reveals that a total of 131.48 hectares of private land has been
acquired for the project. Only 4.7 percent of the awarded amount remained to be disbursed which is pending
due to litigation and court disputes with the land owners. For all practical purposes, LA is complete except
for minor acquisition requirement of additional land about 158 sq mts at chainage 24.750 kms in package 5.
PMU is acquiring through direct purchase. This has slipped timelines agreed during last mission. It is agreed
that the PMU will complete the LA before end September 2016.
Impact Assessment Study: The PMU has hired the consulting agency for conducting Impact Assessment
Study of R&R implementation. Along with the PMU, the mission had a discussion with the Agency on the
study methodology and timelines. The Agency will submit the inception report before August 16, 2016 based
on preliminary field assessments and discussions with the field and head office staff. Incorporating the PMU
and Banks comments, the report will be finalized before August 25, 2016.
Capacity building: To promote and sustain the capacities build on R&R implementation under the HPSRP,
the PMU has agreed last mission to undertake capacity building measures such as exposure visits to other
states where R&R activities are under implementation; deputing the key staff for R&R training; orientation
programs to the staff on R&R. It has been agreed that the PMU will initiate several of these measures
particularly exposure visits to promote the capacities in implementing R&R activities in the state. To
promote R&R implementation a special cell on LA and R&R is under constitution in the PWD; in the past
the PMU has placed Retired Senior Revenue Officer (Retd Special Secretary, Revenue) as Social
Development Officer for HPSRP; the mission appreciates these intiatives which will help in building R&R
systems in the PWD. Very slow progress has been reported on capacity building proposals.
Construction related disturbances Packages 5(1) and 5 (2): The contractor has taken necessary
precautions to avoid construction related impacts on the adjacent communities. However it is agreed that the
PMU with the assistance of CMU will monitor such issues from recurring.
Update the data base: The database has been updated and as per this only 4.8 percent remained to be
disbursed.
