In developed and developing countries,
road systems are central not only to the economic health of
the nation, but also to the quality of the environment and,
in general, the quality of life. Public awareness of this
fact has forced road administrations to be accountable for
road system performance. Despite the efforts of many
countries, there has been no transparent measurement or
comparable evaluation standards for road systems
performance. But in 1996 The Organization for Economic
Cooperation and Development (OECD) embarked on an
international effort involving thirteen countries and
created a scientific expert group to develop a set of
performance indicators to address this need. Concentrating
only on issues related to road systems, they set out to
create performance indicators that will be comprehensive,
holistic, and will help road administrations to evaluate
themselves, respond more effectively to decision makers and
constituents, and even allow some comparisons with peer
countries. The complete OECD expert group report,
'Performance indicators for the road sector' was
published in 1998. The performance indicators in this paper,
although slightly different from those proposed by the OECD
Group, were developed in consultation with area specialists
with the intent that they will apply to African conditions
and circumstances. They reflect the comprehensive
development framework. |
