Revised Project Development Objectives/Outcomes [if applicable]
Proposed Changes 1. This proposed restructuring is to allow for the elimination of two sub-projects from Bank funding under Part 1 of the project (Road Llama-Cochamaba, and Road Puente Reighter- Pte Paucartambo Villarica) as these rehabilitation and upgrading works are now to be financed with national resources as requested by the Government of. The project development objective remains unchanged as well as the outcomes, design and scope of the project. The project is being restructured to facilitate a modification of the negotiated Loan Agreement and avoid delays with loan signing. Based on a request from the Borrower, dated March 9, 2010, it has been agreed that the rehabilitation and upgrading works for the two road sections would now be financed with national resources. This change in source of financing does not materially impact the project development objectives as indeed the project supports a broader program of road rehabilitation and upgrading works to be implemented in 2010. The two road sections represent a total of 98.6km, out of a total of 1,024km. The project target for rehabilitation and upgrading works along 183km of national roads will still be met during project implementation, as indeed the negotiated Loan Agreement stipulates that the sections named under Part 1 of the Project (Road Ayacucho-Abancay: section 50-98; Road Llama-Cochabamba; Road Cochabamba-Chota; and Road Puente Reither Puente Paucartambo Villarica) may be substituted by any such other section which may be found acceptable to the Bank once all the necessary environmental and social assessments have been completed. 2. No other changes are envisioned. There are no changes to the Appraisal Summary, no changes to the Risk Framework, and no changes to the Results Framework. There are no changes to any of the implementation arrangements, financing mechanisms, outputs, financing plan, financial management, procurement, disbursement arrangements, closing date, and implementation schedule.
