| description |
Road transport is the most pervasive of
all transport modes in Africa and is central to the
socioeconomic growth and development of all countries in the
region. For it to be effective as a catalyst for
development, road provision must be institutionally,
economically, financially, socially, and environmentally
sustainable. The main objective of the present document is
to analyze the commercialized road management (CRM) and
publicly available specification (PAS) evaluation approaches
for assessing road agency performance in road asset
management. The document also considers how the two
approaches can be amalgamated to enhance the evaluation of
roads agency performance in terms of key benchmarks for good
road asset management practice. Finally, the document
reflects on indicators that can be incorporated in an
appropriate asset management evaluation framework to: (1)
measure the progress being made towards commercialization of
road administrations; and (2) monitor the performance of
roads agencies in terms of the efficiency and effectiveness
with which they undertake their responsibilities in the road
sub-sector. The report is structured as follows: section one
presents the background to the working paper, including its
purpose and structure. Section two considers the need for a
holistic approach to assessing road agency performance in
road asset management. Section three provides an overview of
the alternative approaches to assessing roads agency
capacity in asset management and their ability to pinpoint
those key elements that contribute to effective and
efficient road asset management. Section four compares and
contrasts the outcomes of the assessment of road agency
capacity in road asset management produced by the
alternative approaches and uses data from three countries to
compare the outcomes produced by the two methods. Section
five considers various performance measures and indicators
that can be adopted to monitor and report upon on a
continuing basis road agency performance in asset
management. Section six presents the findings, conclusions,
and recommendations of the study including a plan of action
to implement the best aspects of both approaches to
assessing roads agency capacity in road asset management. |
