Different incomplete ROBs are targeted to be completed
by the end of calendar year 2016. One number of ROB in the state of Assam and
two number of ROBs in the state of Uttar Pradesh are running behind schedule.
Steps as per contract are being taken to complete the projects.
This information was given by Minister of State for Road Transport &
Highways, Shri Pon. Radhakrishnan in a
written reply to a question in the Rajya Sabha.

Delayed Projects in West
Bengal
Seven
numbers of National Highways works aggregating to a length of 647 Km under
National Highways Development Project (NHDP) are running behind schedule in the
state of West Bengal. The delay in completion of the projects is mainly due to
delay in land acquisition, and removal of encroachment, pre-construction
activities and slow progress by concessionaire. To expedite completion of these
projects, regular meetings have been held at various levels with State
Government, concessionaire and other stakeholders to resolve the issues.
This information was given by Minister of State for Road Transport & Highways, Shri Pon. Radhakrishnan in a written reply to a question in the Rajya Sabha.

Eastern Peripheral
Expressway
Eastern
Peripheral Expressway (EPE) is proposed to be developed as a fully access
controlled expressway.
The entire Expressway shall be provided with Intelligent Traffic System (ITS) with centralised control centre, closed tolling system which also include components like CCTV, weather monitoring, variable message signs, advanced communication system etc.
The work for construction of EPE has already been awarded in six packages on Engineering Procurement and Construction (EPC) mode having Total Capital Cost of Rs 7558.30 crores. This expressway is passing through the States of Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.

Delhi-Meerut Expressway
The
Government has decided to construct Six- lane Delhi-Meerut Expressway.
Six lane Delhi-Meerut Expressway is proposed to be constructed up to Dasna along National Highway-24 and from Dasna to Meerut along a Greenfield alignment. In the first phase, it has been decided to develop Delhi-Dasna-Hapur section on Hybrid Annuity mode. Delhi-Dasna section is of fourteen lane configuration (Six lanes Expressway and Four lanes on either side) and Dasna-Hapur section is of Six lane configurations. Bids for these stretches have already been invited. The Greenfield alignment i.e. Dasna-Meerut section shall be taken up in second phase after completion of land acquisition and other pre-construction activities. For completion of work is a time bound manner, the entire project has been divided into manageable small size packages.

Projects Under Hybrid
Annuity Model
A new Hybrid
Annuity Model has been adopted by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways
for implementation of highway projects in order to encourage private sector
participation through adequate incentives. The objective is to maximize the
quantum of implemented highway projects within available financial resources of
the Government. As per this model, 40% the Project Cost is provided by the
Government as ‘Construction Support’ to the private developer during the
construction period and the balance 60% as annuity payments over the concession
period along with interest on outstanding amount to the concessionaire.
Concessionaire remains responsible for Operation and Maintenance (O&M) till
the end of the concession period and there is separate provision for O&M
payments by the Government to the concessionaire. Project costs are inflation
indexed (through a Price Index Multiple) and the toll are collected by the
Authority, as such the concessionaire does not have to bear the traffic and
inflation risks.
While adopting a new model, there is always an initial apprehension especially when it requires large investments.

Auction of Completed
Projects
A proposal
for monetisation of highways of completed public funded National Highway (NH)
projects through Toll-Operate-Transfer (TOT) mode based on the expected
collection of user fee receivables, through private sector efficiency &
expertise is under active consideration in the Ministry. Proceeds from such
monetisation of completed NH projects which shall accrue to the
government/authority are to be utilised for construction and operation and maintenance
of National Highways throughout the country. The user fees shall be collected
post auction as per existing provisions of the National Highways Fee
(Determination of Rates and Collection) Rules, 2008 and amendments thereof. At
present completed public funded National Highway (NH) projects are bid out to
private developers for operation and maintenance including toll collection for
a pre-determined period on Operate-Maintain-Transfer (OMT) mode.

Objections to Widening
of NH-2
Land is being
acquired for widening of NH-2 passing from Barwadda to Brakar section. No
location prone to fire or subsidence has been reported in the Feasibility Study
Report of the project prepared by the Design Consultant. Independent Engineer
has also reported that there is no subsidence in the area.
Representations have been received from the Nirsa Nagrik Samiti for construction of bypass for the Nirsa area. The construction of bypass has not been considered, as widening to six laning is in progress and any alteration in the project alignment shall delay the project on account of Land Acquisition & Utility shifting. This will also have huge financial implication which will effect the user fee to be collected from the road users.

In order to
ensure timely completion of the stalled projects, regular meetings are held
with project developers, State Governments and contractors. Regular review
meetings are held in Head Quarter by NHAI with Regional Officers,
concessionaires /contractors to make the construction of projects hassle free.
To expedite completion of these projects various steps are taken which include streamlining
of land acquisition & environment clearances, exit for equity investors,
premium re-schedulement, close coordination with other Ministries, revamping of
dispute resolution mechanism, frequent reviews at various levels etc. NHAI with
cooperation of NHBF (National Highways Builders Federation) has formed a

Road Connectivity To
Non-Major Ports
The
Ministry of Road Transport & Highways has taken up a detailed review of
National Highways (NHs) Network with a view to improve connectivity in border
areas including coastal boundary / connectivity covering development of about
7,000 km of new NHs under Bharatmala Pariyojna in consultation with State
Governments. The proposed programme is, inter-alia, envisaged to include
development of road connectivity to some non-major ports also. However, project
is yet to be formally launched.
Government of Odisha had initially submitted proposal / estimates for road connectivity to Dhamra Port, Chudamani Port, Gopalpur Port, Subarnarekha Mouth Port, Astaranga Port and Baliharchandi Port in the State with the National Highways Network. Later it was clarified that Government of Odisha had signed Concession Agreement/MOU with different private port developers to develop these non-major ports in the State in PPP mode and the road connectivity to these ports was included in the respective agreements of the port developers with the State Government. In light of the above developments, the feasibility studies for development of four lane connectivity to the aforementioned ports in the State of Odisha were terminated by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI).
