PC 1 for of a 39 Km long 4-lane access controlled Motorway between Shamkot on the Motorway M-4 & Kot RabNawaz (Multan)

GOVERNMENT OF PAKISTAN
PLANNING COMMISSION
PC-1 FORM
(EXCECTIVE SUMMARY)
Background
The proposed extension of the Motorway M-4 from Shamkot to Multan (Kot RabNawaz) which is a part of the Multan Package will provide linkage of the Motorway to Multan City the heart of southern Punjab. The proposed facility will alleviate traffic congestion in Multan City. Traffic plying on the National Highway N-70 in Balochistan will also benefit from it. The proposed extension has been largely aligned in an agricultural land. It crosses the Multan- Karachi Railway track where a rail-over bridge will be provided. Culverts for water course and minor canals, subways/underpass on the existing link between the city &, villages will be provided. Two interchanges one at Shamkot on the Khanewal Multan Highway (N-5) and the other at Kot RabNawaz on the Multan Vehari road will also be provided.
The 39 km road will be constructed as per NHA standards at a cost of Rs. 9,860.67million. It is a part of the Multan Development Package and will connect Multan with Faisalabad en route other cities/towns opening a new economic corridor for the area. The project will comprise a four-lane motorway with bridges, underpasses and flyovers as per site condition. Culverts shall be constructed for cross drainage works. Road furniture comprising lane markings, traffic signs, guardrails and reflectors will be provided. The recommendations of environmental impact assessment report will also be incorporated in the design.
Project
The scheme provides for the construction of a 39 Km long 4-lane access controlled Motorway between Shamkot on the Motorway M-4 & Kot RabNawaz (Multan). Land measuring 8650 kanals (approximate) will be acquired for meeting the requirement of the 100 meters wide right of way of the motorway. Provision has also been made for compensation & resettlement to the affecters presently residing in the area earmarked for the ROW. Removal of utilities and mango fruit gardens will be carried as per the proposed design & drawing. Construction of the proposed Motorway extension, like all projects executed in virgin lands will disturb the environmental status of the area as also the re-inhabitation/ re-settlement of' the locals. However the proposed mottled access through this area, being connected the national grid  system of the Motorway/ Expressway of Pakistan , shall promote industry and other Infrastructure contributing towards the national economic uplift, & enhancing the job opportunities for the locals, thus benefiting southern Punjab.
Cost
The cost of the project has been estimated at Rs. 9,860.67 million.

Extension of the Motorway M-4 from Sham kot to Multan
(Kot RabNawaz) 39 Km
Economic Analysis
1. Background:
The proposed extension of M-4 from Shamkot to Multan (Kot Rab Nawaz) 39 km is a new alignment having length 39 km. It is a part of the Multan Package, which provides connection with the Motorway network, being an important linkage with Multan City the heart of Southern Punjab. It would also alleviate traffic congestion in Multan City. The traffic of Balochistan (N-70) is also benefiting from the motorway net work. With the completion of the proposed works, a smoother and faster travel facility would be made available. Economic justification of the project has beep established by' showing its profitability in terms of the benefits to the economy, through adoption of the discounted cash flow technique. All costs and benefits attributed to the project are having been expressed at the constant 2008 price levels. The projected stream of the economic befits over the economic life of the project has been compared with the estimated stream of economic costs, by bringing the two to a uniform basis through the process of discounting. The economic indicators such as the Net Present Value (NP$, Benefit Cost Ratio (B/C Ratio) and the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) have been computed.

2. Project benefits:
Tangible benefits accruing from the implementation of any road project comprise of vehicle operating cost (VOC) savings as well as travel time cost VTT) savings. However, a major and important part of the benefits from the project implementation is expected to accrue from VOC savings. As such a sensitivity analysis has also been carried out by excluding travel time cost savings also.
Benefits:
The following are the benefits of the project:
1.      Opening a new economic corridor for the area of Multan.
The project will benefit the Multan city because the most of the trade will take place through this route to southern Punjab.


2.      Reduce heavy vehicles traffic congestion in Multan
This project will reduce the burden of heavy vehicles in the Multan city so the this traffic does not damage the roads of the Multan city.
3.      Employment generation
As we know that there is low investment in country with which employment level is also goes down, with help of the new jobs will be created which will helpful for the people of Pakistan.
4.      Reduce terrorism and robbery accidents
Without the project the most of the roads are broken which is also used by terrorist, smugglers, robbers etc. But with this project security level will increase this will also cause to the all illegal activities on M-4.
5.      Reduce traffic accidents
This project will cause to the no of accidents on the M-4, which will ultimately benefits the citizen of Pakistan.
6.      Reduction in the vehicle operating costs
These savings will accrue from the improved surface conditions for the commuters using the proposed road as against the poor surface conditions of the existing road, as indicated by their IRI values- The operating costs of the vehicles commuting on the existing road
(under poor surface conditions) & those traveling on the improved road with far better surface conditions, have been taken from the Pakistan transport Plan Study 2009,1 duly updated for the escalation in the intervening  period.
7.      Savings in. time due to the proposed motorway.
These benefits will accrue from the higher commuting speed of the vehicles traveling on the proposed improved road (because of the higher level of service), as against the low speed of vehicles traveling on the existing road with poor traveling conditions.
3. Traffic likely to use the proposed Service Road
With the construction of the proposed road, a significant traffic volume is expected to be generated. Such traffic has been expressed in terms of percentage as given below. These percentages have been applied to the diverted traffic tabulated above to arrive at the total traffic.

5. Quantification of Project Benefits:
Vehicle Operating Cost Savings
As stated earlier a major part of the economic benefits from the project implementation is expected to accrue from the VOC savings. It is, therefore, important to have a reliable estimate of vehicle operating costs per Km both under without and with project conditions. Based. on the quadratic equations discussed above and economic prices, vehicle operating cost per kilometer by type of vehicle under without project conditions have already been worked. out (refer to Table-2). In order to arrive at the total annual vehicle operating costs (AVOC) both under 'without' and 'with' project conditions, VOC per kilometer have been multiplied with the AADT and distance traveled in a year annual vehicle operating costs worked out in respect of diverted traffic both under without and with project conditions are given in Table-6 and are summarized

6. Results of the Analysis

The discounted cash flow of net benefits is given in Table. The economic indicators, thus computed are summarized below:
Results of analysis
Economic Parameters
At 12% Discount Rate
Present Worth of Benefit Million Rs.)
12,972.44
Present Worth of Costs (Million Rs.)
6.104.93
Net Present Value (Million Rs.)
6.867.52
B/C Ratio
2.12
EIRR (Percent)
21%

7. Sensitivity Analysis
In order to examine the effect of a possible increase in project costs and or decrease in estimated economic benefits of the project, two alternate economic analyses have been undertaken on the basis of a set of assumptions. The result of the sensitivity analysis is given below:

Assumptions
EIRR(Percent)
Base case
21
Sensitivity Tests
20
i. Benefits - (I0% reduction)
ii. Costs * (10% increase)
20


The results of sensitivity analysis given above show that in all cases, the project is not sensitive to any of the above assumptions as the calculated EIRR is all cases is well above 12 percent.
