| description |
Since the demise of the Soviet Union,
urban transport services in the Kyrgyz Republic have
deteriorated badly and are increasingly incapable of
satisfying public demand. Currently publicly owned and
operated services are available primarily in the capital,
Bishkek. Private operators provide a variety of transport
services in Bishkek and other urban areas. Whether publicly
or privately provided, however, the services are not
satisfactory to users. The Kyrgyz Government is concerned
about this situation and has requested World Bank
assistance. The proposed project will focus on three major
cities: Bishkek, Osh, and Jalal-Abad. As part of the project
preparation process, the Bank launched a social assessment
(SA) in September 1997. The SA sought to gain a better
understanding of transport patterns and the transport needs
of low-income residents, as well as to facilitate
stakeholder participation in the design of a people-focused
urban transport project. This Note gives a brief
presentation of the objectives of the social assessment, the
basic steps followed, and the main findings and
recommendations from the SA. |
