| Summary: | This is the first iteration of a
Transport Asset Management Planning (TAMP) Guideline for
Ulaanbaatar. This TAMP Guideline I guides the Municipality
of Ulaanbaatar (MUB) to move away from its conventional
reactive decision-making approach and adopt a systematic,
evidence- and risk-based approach in maintaining its road
assets. The reactive way of doing business, which postpones
repair activities until major deterioration occurs, is no
longer sustainable. It is too expensive, and it erodes the
value of important and costly road assets. As the costs of
operating and repairing roads continue to increase, it has
become more difficult for the MUB to meet the demands of an
aging and expanding infrastructure while dealing with public
expectations to provide the same level of service. This TAMP
Guideline can therefore serve as a medium- and long-term
tactical guide for MUB to plan for repair and maintenance of
its transport assets to provide good quality road network to
UB’s citizens while optimizing the use of its scarce
financial resources for maintenance and repairs. The TAMP
incorporates two key risks that strain the performance and
safety of UB’s road network: climate risks (particularly
urban flooding) and road safety risks. |
