Case Project: Awash To Mieso (72 KM) Toll Road Project

The Ethiopian Roads Authority is hiring a company to conduct a feasibility study for constructing a new expressway between Adama and Dire Dawa under a public-private partnership. The 357km project is estimated to cost $1.2 billion and includes three sections: Adama-Awash, Awash-Mieso, and Mieso-Dire Dawa. For the feasibility study, the company should analyze three alternatives for the Awash-Mieso section: a new 4-lane road, a new 6-lane road, and upgrading the existing road. The study will evaluate the technical, economic, financial, environmental, and social aspects of each alternative.

Conduct a feasibility study for the planned expressway between Adama and

Dire Dawa to be constructed under a public-private partnership arrangemen


The 357Km project is estimated to cost 1.2 billion dollars and is comprised of
three lots: Adama-Awash, 125Km; Awash-Mieso, 72Km; and Mieso-Dire Dawa,
160Km that links Somali Regional State with Oromia Regional State.
For the first 60Km of the road, a feasibility study was already conducted with
financing secured from the African Development Bank (AfDB). Bejing
Expressway Supervision Co. Ltd was engaged to conduct the feasibility study
in 2016. The Authority is in the process of hiring a contractor for the design
and build project. This portion of the project does not fall under the PPP
arrangement.
For the remaining 297Km, the Ethiopian Roads Authority is in the process of
hiring a company to conduct the feasibility study of the project.

Case project: Awash to Mieso (72 km) toll road project

The Ethiopian Roads Authority (ERA) is in the process of hiring a company for the
feasibility study of the design and build project. In this sense, we assume that we are
selected to conduct the economic feasibility study for the planned expressway to be
constructed in the coming years.

Assumption, The project does not fall under the PPP arrangement

For the considered project we assume three alternatives:

 Alternative 1 , New, 4 lane


 Alternative 2 , New , 6 lane
 Alternative 3 , Upgrading

Alternative 1(New 4 lane)


Project description
Project road built between town A and town B, which is about 60Km long of a DC5
standard road. From map, the terrain through which the project is expected to pass
has about 35% flat terrain, 40% rolling and 25% mountainous and escarpment
terrains. From map, it can also be deduced that the road passes through five major
gorges that demand bridges of average 20m length. Including the start and end of the
project, the road has about 4km town sections.
