CHAPTER 0.0: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 0.1 PROJECT BACKGROUND

The Government of Uttar Pradesh has a long – term program to improve the Core Road Network (CRN) and, as part of this program, has applied through Government of India for a financial assistance from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) for developing the Uttar Pradesh Core road Network Development Project (UPCRNDP). The Program is designed to improve transport connectivity in the state of Uttar Pradesh, by rehabilitating and upgrading Major District Roads (MDRs) forming part of the Core Road Network (CRN) in the state, thereby improving connectivity and fostering inclusive economic growth. The Program constituents are:

i) Rehabilitating and upgrading about 1138 km of MDRs; and ii) Improving and planning for road asset maintenance.

The state has a road network of about 403,100 km, out of which about 197,132 km are with the Uttar Pradesh Public Works Department (UPPWD). Almost 74.4% of State Highways (SH) are double lane, but 62% of Major District Roads (MDR) and 83% of Other District Roads (ODR) have widths less than 3.75m. Around 77.0% of the roads are surfaced (310,398 km) With a view to develop the road network system, UPPWD has identified 650Km of Major District Road and Other District Road Network in the tranche – I for preparation detailed project reports. The list of roads included in tranche I are provided in Table 0.1

The Uttar Pradesh Public Works Department (UPPWD) has appointed M/s. Feedback Infra Pvt. Ltd. for providing the required consultancy services for preparation of Detailed Project Report for Uttar Pradesh Major District Roads Improvement Program in the state of Uttar




Pradesh. The Contract Agreement for the assignment was signed on 2nd September 2014, and PWD Uttar Pradesh through their letter 02/UPMDRDP/DPRC/2014-15 dated 19.08.2014 instructed the consultants to commence the Assignment, and the project activities thereafter. This report deals the Muzaffernagar to Baraut section of MDR-135W, the total length of the project road road is 59.174 Kms (Design length). The key plan of the project road section is shown in Figure 0.1.

Figure 0.1: Key plan of the Project Road

0.2 SCOPE OF SERVICES

The objective of the detailed project reports is to improve and rehabilitate the selected MDRs/ODRs to a minimum 2-lane standard configuration, geometric improvements as required, and bypasses (if required)in identified locations. Establish the technical, environmental, social, economical, and financial viability of the project, suitable for funding by multilateral agencies. Financial viability of the project road cannot be carried out because financial analysis is required to be done on roads where toll plazas are proposed, but on these roads no toll plazas are being proposed. Also, these roads are either MDR or ODR roads and there is no toll policy available for MDR –ODR roads for Uttar Pradesh, it will be difficult to assess the revenue projections without a policy. The DPRs will include traffic and condition assessment, detailed road design, design of pavement, design of bridges and cross drainage structures and grade separated structures, design of service roads, quantities of various items, detailed working drawings, detailed cost estimates, environmental and social feasibility, resettlement plans and environmental action plans as appropriate and documents required for tendering the project on commercial basis for international/ local competitive bidding.




Carry out engineering, economic, environmental and social feasibility studies of tranche I roads; and all required traffic surveys / investigations. a) Assist in preparation of contracting / packaging strategy with due analysis of local

contracting industry, their capacities and consultations as well as preparation of Procurement Plan for the Project including its revisions/ updates.

b) Prepare Detailed Project Reports (DPRs), Detailed Engineering Drawings, Assist UPPWD in preparation of Pre-qualification and / or Bidding Documents (as per the procurement policies of the Asian Development Bank) required for procurement of contractors.

c) Social and Environmental Analysis will be undertaken in parallel to the Engineering Designs in order to determine which roads present no major social and environmental issues and which roads will require further analysis (including the analysis of alternative alignments/bypasses if appropriate) to resolve such issues.

d) Environmental and Social Screening will be undertaken for all project beginning with the preparation of strip maps of land use within existing ROW of all proposed road alignments and associated PROW‟s (Proposed ROW), the EA will be prepared in such a manner as to fully comply with State, GOI and Asian Development Bank Environmental Designs for the enhancement of areas within the ROW which have suffered environment degradation and / or which provide opportunities as the result of the proposed highway improvement proposals for the development of environmental assets. An Environmental Management Plan will be prepared incorporating proposals concerning the implantation, management and monitoring of the proposed environmental components of the project. The objective is to prepare detail cost effective measures for the protection and enhancement of environmental assets during construction and operation according to an agreed implementation schedule.

e) Based on screening results, a detailed Social Impact Assessment (SIA) and Base – line Socio Economic Survey (BSES) will need to be carried out for all project roads. A resettlement Action Plan (RAP), Indigenous Peoples Development Plan (IPDP), if required, Gender Action Plan (GAP) and Land Acquisition Plan (LAP) will subsequently need to be prepared for the project, before project appraisal as required for meeting Asian Development Bank appraisal requirements.

Prepare all the document required for Environmental and forest clearances and facilitate the entire clearance process (both Environmental and forest) by fulfilling all the regulatory requirements.

0.3 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The project stretch of MDR 135W starts from the SH 12 (Km. 71.300) near Muzaffernagar at Km. 3+000 (Design Ch. 2+970). After that it intersects with SH 82 (Km. 39.100) at budhana and ends at Km. 62+000 (Design Ch. 62+144) near Baraut. The total length of the project road is 59.000 Kms (Design Length is 59.174 Kms). The existing carriageway width varies in between 5.60 m and 7.80 m. The existing pavement condition is good to very poor. There are 2 Major Bridges, 4 Minor Bridges and 123 Culverts along the project road.

0.4 KEY TRAFFIC STUDY FINDINGS

Various traffic surveys and analyses have been carried out on the project road for addressing the objectives and issues pertaining to up gradation. The surveys conducted include 7 days volume counts, origin-destination and axle load survey have been carried out at one location, pedestrian count survey at Dadon village, and turning movement count at one locations. The study aims at obtaining the existing traffic and travel characteristics on the project road and forecasting for project horizon year considering various constituent




streams and for various scenarios. The results of analysis will form inputs for designing the pavement, capacity augmentation, carrying out economical analysis, decisions regarding grade separators, pedestrian facilities, and wayside amenities along with design of intersections on the upgraded project road.

The average daily traffic (ADT) has been converted to average annual daily traffic (AADT) using seasonal factors. The AADT is used as the input for various analyses like traffic forecast, economical analysis, pavement design, etc. Table 0.2 provides the ADT and AADT at one location on the project road.

0.4.3 Traffic Forecast

Traffic demand plays the most important factor in deciding the type of facility (infrastructure) to be provided. This in turn determines likely benefits and costs to develop the same. A highway project of this nature calls for significant investment. Prediction of traffic demand becomes an important task and has to be carried out accurately. For the design of pavement and to plan for the future maintenance program and for economic evaluation, it is necessary to have realistic estimate of the size of traffic in the design period of 30 years.




Traffic forecasting is made by use of economic models developed to co-relate past vehicle registration data and economic indices such as per capital income (PCI), net state domestic product (NSDP) and gross domestic product (GDP). By using the elasticity values obtained from the economic models and the likely rate of growth of indicators, the mode wise growth rates are obtained. By applying this growth rates, future traffic volume is estimated. The projected traffic details are given in Table 0.5.

Km 24.200 2021 2034

Initially Muzaffarnagar to Baraut road was proposed to be 2-Lane configuration. After

discussions with UPPWD, PPTA Consultant and Traffic analysis, 2-Lane with Earthen

Shoulder was proposed earlier.

In year 2021, the projected traffic is 15,466 PCU. As per IRC code, the Capacity of 2-Lane

at LOS-B is 15,000 PCU; for LOS-C it is 21,000 PCU. Cost estimates were prepared for 2-

Lane case & submitted for financial approval. After ADB Mission visit, it was decided by

ADB to provide 2-Lane with Paved shoulder, as the road will cross 2-Lane capacity in 2021

at LOS-B and 2029 at LOS-C. The revised Design/Cost Estimates for 2-Lane with Paved

Shoulder was resubmitted.

Detailed Traffic projection is given in Chapter 3 (3.5).




0.5 KEY ENGINEERING SURVEY FINDINGS

The detailed reconnaissance survey has been carried out to identify and plan various surveys and investigations. Topographic survey has been carried out using total station and auto level as per standards prescribed. Pavement Investigations have been conducted comprising of inspection by pavement specialist, excavation of Trial pits with existing Pavement composition determination, and Sub-grade investigations. The condition of the existing road is fair to poor. Benkelman Beam deflection survey for strengthening of existing road and Roughness survey for calculating IRI (International Roughness Index)has been carried out as per standards. The material investigations have been carried out and various quarries / borrow areas have been identified and tested. The soaked CBR values of existing sub-grade soil and borrow area soil varies from 2.60% to 9.20% and 5.40% to 7.50% respectively. As per IRC: 37-2012 clause: 5.1, a CBR value of 8% has been recommended, if the commercial vehicles higher than 450 per day. Hence for the purpose of Pavement Design a soaked Effective CBR of 8% has been adopted.

0.9 IEE REPORT

The Initial Environmental Examination is aimed at determining the environmental impacts due to the construction and operation of the project road. The major environmental disciplines in the study include topography and land use, soil and agriculture, geology and seismicity, climate and meteorology, air quality, noise level, terrestrial , aquatic ecology etc. Project specific environmental management plan has been be prepared for ensuring the implementation of the proposed measures during construction phase of the project. A separate IEE report is been prepared and submitted separate volume

0.10 SOCIAL ASSESSMENT The main objective of conducting social examination is to provide inputs of social concerns to be detailed in project design and to avoid or minimise the adverse social impacts with the best possible engineering solutions at minimum cost in close coordination between engineering, environmental and social experts during the entire design process. The social




examination exercise is intended to assess the negative impacts (direct, indirect or cumulative) and to suggest mitigating measures to avoid or at least minimise the adverse impacts on nearby communities and natural environment, peoples and properties falling on the direct path of road development, people indirectly affected by the way of disruption of livelihood, breakage in community linkages, impacts arising from land acquisition and resettlement, on indigenous people (SC, ST etc.) and on human safety etc. A separate social assessment report is been prepared and submitted as separate volume

0.11 COST ESTIMATION The cost estimation for the project is extremely important as the implementation of a project depends on the project cost. Therefore, cost estimates have been carried out with due care. Estimation of cost, a primary pre-requisite for financial evaluation, has been carried out for widening the existing road to a two lane carriageway including strengthening of the existing pavement, strengthening / widening of existing bridge structures, construction of new bridges, rehabilitation and reconstruction / widening of cross drainage structures, longitudinal drains, junction improvements and road furniture, etc. The summary of the cost estimate is given in Table 0.13.

CHAPTER 1.0: PROJECT DESCRIPTION 1.1 BACKGROUND

The Government of Uttar Pradesh has a long – term program to improve the Core Road Network (CRN) and, as part of this program, has applied through Government of India for a financial assistance from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) for developing the Uttar Pradesh Core road Network Development Project (UPCRNDP). The Program is designed to improve transport connectivity in the state of Uttar Pradesh, by rehabilitating and upgrading Major District Roads (MDRs) forming part of the Core Road Network (CRN) in the state, thereby improving connectivity and fostering inclusive economic growth. The Program constituents are:

iii) Rehabilitating and upgrading about 1138 km of MDRs; and iv) Improving planning for road asset maintenance.

The state has a road network of about 403,100 km, out of which about 197,132 km are with the Uttar Pradesh Public Works Department (UPPWD). Almost 74.4% of State Highways (SH) are double lane, but 62% of Major District Roads (MDR) and 83% of Other District Roads (ODR) have widths less than 3.75m. Around 77.0% of the roads are surfaced (310,398 km) With a view to develop the road network system, UPPWD has identified 650 Km of Major District Road and Other District Road Network in the tranche – I for preparation detailed project reports. The selected major district roads under this phase comprise MDR & ODR and the details are presented in the Table 1.1.

The Uttar Pradesh Public Works Department (UPPWD) has appointed M/s. Feedback Infra Pvt. Ltd. for providing the required consultancy services for preparation of Detailed Project Report for Uttar Pradesh Major District Roads Improvement Program in the state of Uttar Pradesh. The Contract Agreement for the assignment was signed on 2nd September 2014, and PWD Uttar Pradesh through their letter 02/UPMDRDP/DPRC/2014-15 dated 19.08.2014 instructed the consultants to commence the Assignment, and the project activities thereafter. This report deals the Muzaffarnagar to Baraut section of MDR135W. The project road is located on Western UP passing through districts of Muzaffarnagar and Baghpat of Uttar Pradesh State. The project stretch of MDR 135W starts from the SH 12 (Km. 71.300) near Muzaffernagar at Km. 3+000 (Design Ch. 2+970). After that it intersects with SH 82 (Km. 39.100) at budhana and ends at Km. 62+000 (Design Ch. 62+144) near Baraut. The total length of the project road is 59.000 Kms (Design Length is 59.174 Kms). .The key plan of the project road section is shown in Figure 1.2.

Figure 1.2: Key plan of the Project Road

1.2 OBJECTIVES OF THE CONSULTANCY SERVICES

The key objective of PWD is to improve Major District Road and Other District Road Network and the consultant‟s services should deliver and manage the identified road through scientific tools for planning, programming and budgeting, enhancing safety and capacity of existing roads. The key objective on completion of the proposed services is to prepare DPRs for the purpose of firming up UPPWD‟s requirements in respect of development and construction of the roads in terms of the requirements of ADB, and enabling prospective bidders to assess project requirements in a clear and predictable manner with a view to ensuring:




Enhanced safety and level of service for the road users;

Superior operation and maintenance enabling enhanced operational efficiency of the project roads;

Minimal adverse impact on the local population and road users due to road construction;

Minimal adverse impact on environment; and

Minimal additional acquisition of land. The proposed services will provide all assistance and support to the PWD/GoUP/ Asian Development Bank and would look into interest of all stakeholders. Preparing an effective contracting / packaging strategy will be an integral part of the services. Road safety and cost optimization will have special consideration

1.3 SCOPE OF SERVICES

The objective of the detailed project reports is to improve and rehabilitate the selected MDRs to minimum 2-lane standard configuration, geometric improvements as required, and bypasses (if required)in identified locations. Establish the technical, environmental, social, economical, and financial viability of the project, suitable for funding by multilateral agencies. Financial viability of the project road cannot be carried out because financial analysis is required to be done on roads where toll plazas are proposed, but on these roads no toll plazas are being proposed. Also, these roads are either MDR or ODR roads and there is no toll policy available for MDR, ODR roads for Uttar Pradesh, it will be difficult to assess the revenue projections without a policy. The DPRs will include traffic and condition assessment, detailed road design, design of pavement, design of bridges and cross drainage structures and grade separated structures, design of service roads, quantities of various items, detailed working drawings, detailed cost estimates, environmental and social feasibility, resettlement plans and environmental action plans as appropriate and documents required for tendering the project on commercial basis for international/ local competitive bidding.

f) Carry out engineering, economic, environmental and social feasibility studies of tranche

I roads; and all required traffic surveys / investigations. g) Assist in preparation of contracting / packaging strategy with due analysis of local

contracting industry, their capacities and consultations as well as preparation of Procurement Plan for the Project including its revisions/ updates.

h) Prepare Detailed Project Reports (DPRs), Detailed Engineering Drawings, Assist UPPWD in preparation of Pre-qualification and / or Bidding Documents (as per the procurement policies of the Asian Development Bank) required for procurement of contractors.

i) Social and Environmental Analysis will be undertaken in parallel to the Engineering Designs in order to determine which roads present no major social and environmental issues and which roads will require further analysis (including the analysis of alternative alignments/bypasses if appropriate) to resolve such issues.

j) Environmental and Social Screening will be undertaken for all project beginning with the preparation of strip maps of land use within existing ROW of all proposed road alignments and associated PROW‟s (Proposed ROW), the EA will be prepared in such a manner as to fully comply with State, GOI and Asian Development Bank Environmental Designs for the enhancement of areas within the ROW which have suffered environment degradation and / or which provide opportunities as the result of the proposed highway improvement proposals for the development of environmental assets. An Environmental Management Plan will be prepared incorporating proposals concerning the implantation, management and monitoring of the proposed environmental components of the project. The objective is to prepare detail cost




effective measures for the protection and enhancement of environmental assets during construction and operation according to an agreed implementation schedule.

k) Based on screening results, a detailed Social Impact Assessment (SIA) and Base – line Socio Economic Survey (BSES) will need to be carried out for all project roads. A resettlement Action Plan (RAP), Indigenous Peoples Development Plan (IPDP), if required, Gender Action Plan (GAP) and Land Acquisition Plan (LAP) will subsequently need to be prepared for the project, before project appraisal as required for meeting Asian Development Bank appraisal requirements.

Prepare all the document required for Environmental and forest clearances and facilitate the entire clearance process (both Environmental and forest) by fulfilling all the regulatory requirements.

2.2.2 Pavement Condition Survey

Detailed field studies have been carried out to collect pavement/shoulder/drainage conditions and are presented in Annexure 2.2.

The survey on general pavement condition was primarily a visual exercise undertaken by means of walk through, and supplemented with measurements wherever necessary.Aspects of pavement conditions assessed include surface defects, rut depth, cracking, potholes, patched areas, shoulder condition etc. An overall assessment of performance serviceability of the road was also done to qualitatively rate the existing pavement and shoulder conditionThe pavement condition was recorded under the following sub-heads:

Shoulder

Composition / Condition / material Loss

Riding Quality (Good / Fair / Poor / Very Poor)

Pavement Condition (surface distress type & extent)

Cracking (%)

Raveling (%)

Potholes (%)

Patching (%)

Rut depth (mm)

Edge break (m)

Pavement edge Drop (mm)

Embankment Condition (Good / Fair / Poor)

Road Side Drain (Non Existing / Partially Functional / Functional)

Drainage condition

On the basis of data obtained from pavement condition survey.A pavement condition rating has been done and same is shown in Annexure 2.6 of this report




Potholes Major Cracks

Patching Good Condition of Carriageway

For determining the pavement condition for project road, the yardstick as given in Table 2.6 has been used to designate the pavement condition.

2.2.2.1 Summary of Condition Survey Results

Based on Pavement Condition Rating sheet (Annexure 2.6); it has been observed that 78 % of road is in good condition, 6 % of road is in fair condition, 16 % of road is in poor condition.




2.2.2.2 Shoulder Condition

Earthen shoulder is observed on along the project road with varying width from 1m to 2m. Failures like shoulder drop, rain cuts and corrugations were observed. Condition of shoulder is fair to poor.

2.3 TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEYS

The basic objective of the topographic survey is to collect the essential ground features along the existing alignment using Total Station so as to develop a Digital Terrain Model (DTM), so as to take care of design requirements of new carriageway, possible improvements in highway geometrics, identifying areas of restrictions & their remedies
