Pavement
on the project highway w.e.f 14th September 2016
Shoulder
Drainage Cleaning of drainage in built up areas n progress
Median
Concessionaire has taken up repairs and maintenance of MBCB and electric

poles, etc on issuance of NCPs from Authority Engineer
Bridges
As per provisions of CA and policy decided by MoRTH/<Agency>, 2 ETC lanes
at each toll plaza have been operationalised w.e.f. 25th September 2016. The
Buildings connectivity of ETC lanes with Central Clearing House (CCH) has been
achieved and presently ETC lanes are operationalized in Hybrid Mode due to
less number of tags purchased by highway users
Planting of new trees from Chainage 200+300 to 226+650
Horticulture
Trimming of plants which were causing obstruction to highway users

Page 130 of 229


1.4 Pending issues

Overlay on the entire stretch of project length of 252 km and service roads has not
been taken up by Concessionaire yet since the date of completion of overlay is due in
next 25 days
Over all progress is very slow regarding repair of potholes and rutting on Main
Carriageway which is causing inconvenience to highway users and is also a concern
from road safety point of view.
Street lighting in
Anantapur bypass completed on main carriageway and is energized but for
service roads street lighting is pending on both sides
Kurnool bypass erection of poles only completed in main carriageway not yet
energized till to date, but for service roads not started

1.5 Recommended actions by Authority Engineer

In spite of the repeated requests, there is no material change in status of works


pertaining to repairs/ rectifications of defects on the project highway. AE has
recommended the damages of Rs 5.9 Cr on the Concessionaire on account of delay in
repairs of defects in road and bridge works in terms of the provision of Clause 15.8.1
of the Concession Agreement. Concessionaire shall be liable for imposition of further
damages on similar lines till the date of completion
Concessionaire is requested to take at most care for completing the overlay before
31.03.2017 since the existing road condition is getting deteriorated day by day
causing much inconvenience to the traffic

Annexure VII: OUTPUT FORMAT FROM NETWORK SURVEY VEHICLE AND FWD
TESTING (SECTION 1: TESTING AT TIME OF COMPLETION, SECTION 2: FWD
ATTRIBUTES - ANNUALLY, BALANCE PARAMETERS –BIANNUALLY AFTER
CONSTRUCTION PHASE)

In addition to the reports being submitted on equipment based inspection as specified in


Section 4.2 of the Monthly Progress Report in the O&M phase, the Authority Engineer (AE) shall
submit electronically in excel (.xls) format certain key parameters to the Project Director in the
following format.

Worksheets under Section 1 (‘Road inventory data’) shall be updated from surveys conducted
only once at the time of completion testing. Worksheets under Section 2 (‘Road condition data’)
shall be updated from surveys carried out annually for FWD attributes and biannually for the
remaining attributes.

The fields to be updated in each of the worksheets are described below. Each description is
followed by an example of data for a sample project.

SECTION 1 - ROAD INVENTORY DATA

Road inventory data consists of parameters which provide basic information about roads such
as pavement type, number of lanes, topography, etc. These parameters are largely static in
nature, and therefore a survey to update this dataset shall be conducted only once at the time
of completion testing. The road inventory data shall be used to update specific worksheets
listed below.

SECTION 2 - ROAD CONDITION DATA

Road condition data consists of parameters which directly affect maintenance requirements of
the road. These parameters are dynamic in nature, and therefore a survey to update this
dataset shall be conducted annually for FWD testing and every six months as per Annexure IV
for network survey vehicle testing. The first survey shall be conducted at the time of
completion testing and the remaining surveys shall be conducted as per the defined frequency.

As an example, if majority of highway length (>50%) passes through a state, where defined
survey months are May and November, if completion testing is conducted in April, then the
first network survey shall be conducted in the month of April. This shall be considered as the
network survey to be conducted in the month of May. The 2nd survey shall be conducted in the
month of November, the 3rd survey shall be conducted in the month of May and so on. As
regards FWD, the first test/survey shall be conducted at the time of completion in April. The
2nd test/survey shall be conducted in April of next year and so on.

The road condition data shall be used to update specific worksheets, which are listed below.
2.1 Visual condition

The following table lists the fields which need to be populated for the ‘Visual Condition’
attribute. The descriptions of the fields are given below.
