DTMP of Morang 2010

Chapter IV: District Inventory Map of Rural Road Network
CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
Morang District is located in Koshi Zone of the Eastern Development Region of Nepal. It
borders with Jhapa and Ilam districts to the East, Sunsari to the West, Dhankuta and
Panchathar to the North and of Bihar State (India) to the South. It is a historical and second
largest densly populated district of the country. The district has one sub metropolitan city
Biratnagar and 65 VDCs. In ancient time the story of Mahabharat describes that it was a
kingdom of Birat Raja, and therefore the city is named as Biratnagar. The next myth tells that
city was ruled by Kirati King named ‘Hang’. At that time the jurisdictional areas was called as
‘Mobrang’ which is now called as ‘Morang’. The district is also a main industrial and trade
centre of the country.
The total area of the district is 1855 Square kilo meters. Geographically the district lies on
87º16’ to 87º41’ east longitude and 26º20’ to 26º53’ north latitude. The tropical temperature
is found in terai areas whereas sub tropical temperature is found in hilly area. The rainfall of
district is measured maximum to 1812 mm in 2062 Ashad and similarly, the maximum
temperature is recorded 42ºC in summer and 3ºC in winter. The temperature is always
influenced with variation in altitude. The lowest elevation point is 100 meter and highest
elevation point is 2410 meter from mean sea level of the district. Morang district is famous for
trade and Industrial sector and it is also the main place of Agriculture production. There are
some hilly VDCs which covers 20% of the area of district is going to develop as potential for
different cash crops, tea, horticulture and livestock.
The long term vision of the Government of Nepal for the road sector formulated National
Strategy emphasizes on "the development basic rural infrastructure (with strong emphasis on
district agricultural roads) country-wide in a planned and sustainable manner”. In line with the
poverty alleviation objectives, labour-based technology and environmental-friendly, local
resource-oriented construction methods have to be incorporated in rural infrastructure
development process. The National Strategy emphasizes the consideration of these aspects
and the decentralised concept while formulating the approach and guidelines for rural
infrastructure development.
Morang district has air transport service as well as the sufrace transport facilities. Surface
transport facilities through national highway feeder road, district road and village roads are
increasing significantly in the district. However, district and rural roads are in poor condition
require upgrading, rehabilitation and proper maintenance. The total length of the strategic
road networks in morang district is 220.54 kilometres. Planning, construction and
maintenance of strategic road networks is the responsibility of Department of Road (DoR).
District Transport Master Plan (DTMP), Morang IV-

1
Transport facilities help in developing access of rural-urban linkages. Road accessibility can
reduce isolation, stimulate crop production and marketing activities, encourage public services
and help to transfer technology. Road building has been seen to bring about notable
enthusiasmand visible changes in rural life. However, in the absence of rational criteria and
professional guidelines, road constructions are carried out in an adhoc manner leading to,
wastage of limited resources.
District transport Master Plan (DTMP) provides the guideline and criteria for transparent
decision making process in rural transport infrastructure sector.
In a nutshell, District Transport Master Plan is a reflection of existing transport infrastructure

situation and future potential in relation with the resources available the District. DTMP essentially
covers the rural transport infrastructures (RTIs), which are funded, supported and implemented
by DDCs. The DTMP preparation strongly advocates meaningful participation of all key
stakeholders in the planning process to make DTMP more acceptable and ensure ownership.
The preparation process goes through a series of techno-political activities that include
consultation workshops and interactive meetings with stakeholders to increase participation of all
stakeholders. These activities include District level workshop, DTICC meetings and cluster of
Ilaka level workshops, formal/informal meeting, focus group discussions and transit walk, etc. At
every stage, to careful consideration is given to ensure access and high level of participation of
representatives from line agencies, major political parties, social leaders, women organizations,
Dalit and Janjati coordination committees, differently able people, chamber of commerce,
transportation association etc. The approach is to work towards consensus building.
A completed and DDC endorsed DTMP serves as a planning document when potential donor
agencies, line agencies and development partners approach the district for possible transport
sector investments.. DTMP becomes an authoritative document of the district to negotiate
possible grant and loan assistance from donor agencies. It facilitates project identification. Donors
or funding agencies supporting rural transport investments have accepted DTMP as a
prerequisite tool for transport related assistance.
The long term vision of the Government of Nepal for the road sector, as formulated National
Strategy (MoLD 1997), is "….the development of basic rural infrastructure (with strong emphasis
on district agricultural roads) country-wide in a planned and sustainable manner. In line with the
poverty alleviation objectives, labour-based technology and environmental-friendly, local
resource-oriented construction methods have to be incorporated in rural infrastructure
development process.” The National Strategy highlights that development of rural infrastructure
takes place in a decentralized environment.
1.2 Objective of the DTMP
In brief, the overall objective of the District Transport Master Plan (DTMP) is to develop rural road
network in a district in a planned and sustainable manner using labour based, local resources
oriented, and environmental friendly approach within a decentralized participatory environment.

2
The specific objectives of preparing DTMP for a district are to:

Analyse accessibility situation in the district
Identify and prioritize interventions based on the accessibility situation.
Prepare Indicative Developmental Potential Map (IDPM).
Prepare District Inventory Map (DIM) of Rural Road networks.
Prepare Perspective Plan of transport services and facilities.
Prepare/update five years District Transport Master Plan (DTMP).
Prepare a realistic physical and financial implementation plan of prioritized roads for the
DTMP period.
1.3 Scope of work
The process of DTMP preparation as envisaged under this assignment includes studies of the
district roads, their socio-economic analysis and scope of various sectors such as agriculture,
industry etc.. DTMP looks at the present transport situation, accessibility and socio-economic
benefit that will accrue from planned development of the road network. This is reflected in the
perspective plan of twenty years range based on which five years DTMP is designed. The short
term investments will be completed in five year period. This study of DTMP is limited to areas
within district boundary but due consideration is given to the nearest road-head and regional and
intra-district connectivity. Participatory planning adopted for DTMP preparationis expected to
contribute to consensus building among the politicians and district level stakeholders necessary
for acceptingDTMP as the agreed document of DDC. The District Council is expected to agree to
the DTMP and use it for the road development, implementation, improvement and maintenance
of transport networks in the district.
1.4 Limitation of Study
DTMP is prepared to be a valid legal document approved by DDC Council. In order to implement
the Plan. DDC should consistently own the document and use the investment plan even if DDC
Council is changed. The usefulness of DTMP depends on its use by the DDC.
Socio-economic data used in the DTMP preparation are collected from secondary sources .
Prioritization criteria were presented in DTICC and were approved. Perspective Plan and five
year DTMP plans are based on result of prioritization process and reflect information on DDC
financial resources as made available to the study team.
Estimate of the cost of road construction has been prepared based on the experience gained in
district roads in similar terrain. The estimated resource envelope e for the implementation of road
projects is prepared after analysing the past trend of budgets. Therefore, the budgetary figures
projected are only indicative.There may be unforeseen changes in the level of actual allocation of
budgets for the road sector.

CHAPTER II: APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY
2.1 Approach
District Transport Master Plan is prepared using participatory bottom-up approach and differs
from conventional practices of top down approach. Techno-Political interface has been
incorporated in the planning process, where active participation from representatives of political
parties, line agencies, DDC officials is crucial.
The District Transport Infrastructure Coordination Committee (DTICC) has been constituted at the
district level as authorized legislative body of DDC. This body, comprising political
representatives from all political parties, provides necessary policy decisions during the DTMP
preparation process.
2.2 Methodology
The preparation of DTMP goes through several stages in its planning stage. Secondary sources
of information are collected from various line agencies. District level workshop is conducted to
create awareness among district leadership and representatives as well as local people on how
the planning activities re carried out and what their roles are in the process. Cluster of llaka level
workshops are then carried outto verify and validate proposed network planning.
During the course of preparing DTMP for Morang, key steps in that the team went through during
preparation process are described below:

2.2.1 Task/Activities
The consultant team undertook related tasks and activities according to a work schedule as
agreed in their Inception Report. These include:
Task- 1: Data/ Information collection
a) Collection and review of secondary information
Secondary data were collected from annual report published by District Level offices and through
consultation with stakeholders (such as DADO, DVO, DDC, DEO, Small Cottage and Industries,
local traders etc). The main objective of the secondary data is to verify the data collected from
VDC level. Essential socio-economic data on on area, location and significance of development
potential area such as extensive agriculture, extensive horticulture, livestock farming, high value
cash crops, tourism, cottage and agro-based industries, center for business/commerce/markets,
tourism area, hydropower and water mills, mines, service centers e.g. hospital, health post, agro-
sub-center etc) have been collected from annual report, district profile and study report published
by DDC, DADO, District Education office etc.
Demographic data of district, maps, service flow pattern, various maps showing service centers
or the location of service of road (SoR) facilities, transport infrastructure inventory, past plans and
sectoral study reports, sectoral standards and policy targets were sourced from DoLIDAR, DDC,
line agencies of DDC, Bureau of Statistics, Kathmandu, Topographical Survey Branch, local
NGOs etc. The details on the documents collected are summarised below:
List of documents
Previous reports of DTMP prepared by the DDC.
District periodic plan prepared by the DDC.
Annual report of Agriculture Development Office, District Veterinary Office, report of District
Education office etc.
Report on settlement pattern and market centres of the district.
Demographic Statistics and socio-economic feature of the district.
Collection of Maps
Topo maps the 1:25000 and 1:50000 scales, for use as base map.
Digitized topographic maps of Department of Survey.
District Administrative Map.
District Trail Map, Helvetas.
Strategic Road Network Map.

b) Primary Data collection

Primary information on existing accessibility level of settlements was derived from the
communities, VDC officials, and school teachers in special format developed for this
purpose.
Task- 2: Indicative Development Potential Map (IDPM) Preparation
Indicative Development Potential Map (IDMP) was prepared in order to indicate existing level and
potential development in agriculture, horticulture, livestock areas and growth of key market
centres and other developments. IDPM is developed according to Approach Manual for the
development of Agriculture and Rural Roads (DoLIDAR/MoLD). Based on data collected from
annual reports from line agencies and DDC and Ilaka level workshops,development potentials of
the district in agriculture, horticulture, livestock, cottage and small industries, etc have been
identified.
Existing / potential areas are defines as:
• Areas with extensive agriculture.
• Areas with extensive high value cash crops.
• Areas with extensive NTFP.

• Areas with extensive horticulture.
• Areas with extensive livestock farming.
• Areas with extensive fisheries.

• Areas with extensive small cottage industries.
• Potential areas for tourism development.
• Existing/ potential areas for development of large industries like hydropower, mining etc.
Market Survey.
Market Survey was carried out to identify market and service centres. Data and information
collected in the field is the main basis for determining the importance or relative importance of
market/service centres and central places. All services existing in a particular centre were listed
by district line agencies and supplemented by field data on economic population structure
collected for the centre and its influence areas using P-RRA approach. For the evaluation
purposes, data from offices, Industry, Business & Commerce, Education, Health,
Communication, Electricity Supply, Drinking Water Supply services are combined for the centre
and its influence areas. Assessment of economic facilities and services existing in the
market/service centres and their catchments areas leads to the identification of the most

6
important market/service centre. Centrality analysis of the market facilities and government
services are carried out.
The Centrality Index is calculated using the following formula
n
CJ = ∑ (W X
i=1
i, ij )
Where,
Cj = Centrality Index of the jth market centre
Xij = Value of the ith function (number of establishments or shops at the jth market centre)
Wi = Weightage of the jth function
The weight of each function was calculated by adopting the Median Threshold Population
Technique. The Median Threshold Population Technique calculates the weight as:
Wi = Median population of the ith function
Lowest median population of market centres where a function exists
• The collected information is plotted on the base map indicating their geographical
boundaries as accurately as possible.
• Base map on which all the development potential areas and sites have been plotted is the
draft Indicative Development Potential Map (IDPM) of the district. Brief notes on each
plotted area of development potential are prepared. The description should highlight the
nature and size of the area.
• Presentation of IDPM in DTICC meeting to Finalize and approve IDPM.

Task- 3: Preparation of District Inventory Map (DIM)
The following steps were taken for preparation of DIM Report.
• The inventory survey of the existing rural roads was carried out and necessary
interventions such as new construction, rehabilitation, periodic maintenance, regular
maintenance etc are identified. Earlier, spatial information of existing roads was noted on
photocopy of topographical maps.
• The information/ data on existing rural infrastructures was taken using Global Positioning
System (GPS) instruments including GPS tracking of existing roads and GPS way points
of trail bridges conducted by TBSU. GPS tracking constitutes major activity for DIM
preparation, which takes considerable effort in field level.
• Information on road surface type, traffic levels, status of passability, status of

construction, adequacy of bypasses, existing bridges and their requirements, status of
drainage and other improvement required are collected during inventory survey.

7
• The DIM was presented and discussed in the DTICC meeting and the Interventions on
rehabilitations, maintenance and upgrading of the existing rural roads were agreed. The
required interventions were analysed based on accessibility situation.
• Presentation of DIM and IDPM was made in one day meeting with DTICC. This meeting
then finalised IDPM and DIM.
Task- 4: Preparation of District Network Plan
• Market centre are graded based on centrality index; Market grade A (> 100), grade B (50-
100), grade C (25-50), and potential (< 25).
• Preparation of GIS map of nodal centres (using graded market centres)
• All the market centres based on their hierarchy lies at the core of the central place and
are plotted in GIS map.
• After plotting the market centrals, existing roads are overlaid on the GIS Map.
• Accessibility situation is analysed using GIS model.
• Buffering along the left and right of the existing all weather road is carried out on the basis
of walking distance of 2 hours for terai and 4 hours for the hills. These delineated areas
are considered as accessible area.
• The planning team proposes road network for the inaccessible area identified by the ZoI
analysis.
• Preliminary road network plan for inaccessible area is prepared based on the nodal
points/market centres and government policy of 2 hours and 4 hours.
• Rural roads identified are categorised into two type of roads i.e. district roads and village
roads. District roads are classified as RRA and RRB according to the significance of the
roads.
• Prior to disseminating information in cluster of llaka level workshop, DTICC meeting was
conducted and the proposed preliminary road network plan for inaccessible area was
presented and discussed to verify and obtain preliminary approval of the proposed road
networks.
• All suggestions and feedbacks were collected from DTICC meeting and incorporated in
preliminary proposed road network plan.
• Preliminary road network plan is presented and discussed in series of Ilaka level
workshops to collect their views and proposal for DTPP. Road network plan is finalised in
the workshop.
• In the workshop, the DTMP study team presented and clarified the objective of the DTMP
and process of its preparation.
• Plenary discussions were organised to verify their views on new demands as well as
existing road networks.

city was ruled by Kirati King named ‘Hang’. At that time the jurisdictional areas was called as
‘Mobrang’ which is now called as ‘Morang’. The district is also a main industrial and trade
centre of the country.
The district experiences three types of climate; tropical climate is mostly found below 1200 meter
of elevation. The annual rainfall is about 2000 mm. Such type of climate can be found in about 56
VDC of Morang district. Sub tropical climate is mostly found around 2000 amsl and this type of
climate found in hilly VDCs and the Northern part of the district. Warm Temperate Climate is
found mostly up to 2100 meter of elevation. The area under such climate is located in slopes
between ridge and Valleys. The highest point of district is Miklajung dada which elevation is 2410
meter from mean sea level. The rainfall of district is measured maximum to 1812 mm and
maximum temperature is recorded 42ºC in summer and 3ºC in winter season.
There are various rivers and streams which follow from Mahabharat and hilly areas. There are
two types of major stream/river, one starts from mahabharat which are kadmakhola,
Chisangkhola, Mawakhola, Ratuwakhola, Bakrahkhola and other starts from Siwalik range but
these types of stream could not flow on summer season like as Budhi, Singiya, Lohandra, Das,

12
Keshliya, Mariyabakra, Betauna, Judi, Sakhare. There are many natural ponds in the district like
Betauna Lake, Kechna, Sunbarsi of Govindapur, Rajarani, Dhimal Pokhari of Bhogateni VDC are
important ponds of historical and cultural point of view in the district.
Morang district has 131875.2 hectares of cultivated land with alluvial soil. The paddy farming is
done in almost all areas of the district. The 52116 hectares area of the district is irrigated
land.Morang district has approximately 55500 hectare (30 %) land is covered with forest and
mainly Sal, Chap, Chilaune, Utish, Katus, Salla, Gobre Salla, Teak, Kadam. Sal is a popular for
wood verities and it is found in terai areas. The forest is also called as Charkose Jhadi.
Morang District constitutes its own socio-economic, historical, human and natural resources as
well as geographical characteristics. The information regarding the physical and natural
resources including the religious, historical, archeological, and tourism centre are obtained by the
study of various maps, literatures, reports and consultation with many elder persons.

CHAPTER V: DISTRICT ROAD NETWORK PLANNING
Rural transportation provision is mainly to improve accessibility of the people to markets and
services and promote enonomic activities through increased agriculture as well as non-farm
economic activities and the marketing of the products.. For rural transportation to be effective,
access networks need to be well planned. In the context of Nepal, a fixed point system model
is adopted for networking where junctions are confined to a finite set of location such as
markets, historical locations.
5.1 Accessibility Situation
After collecting data on existing roads within the district with GPS instrument, it is transferred to
a GIS Map. This map is prepared to assess the accessibility situation of the district with the
help of modelling in GIS. As Morang is a terai district, the area from where people can reach
the road head of all-weather road within 4 hours walk has been considered as accessible area
and beyond that area considered is inaccessible area. The study shows that all of the recorded
roads are earthen and fair weather surfaced implying that the roads are usable only during dry
period.
5.2 Zone of Influence Area
The Zone of Influence (ZoI) area for a road is defined as an area on either side of the road that
is within 4 hours walk from the road.
5.3 Delineation of Accessible Area
The areas that are beyond the ZoI is inaccessible area. The planning team proposes the road
network for the inaccessible area as identified by the ZoI analysis.
5.4 Accessible Area, Coverage and Population
Accessibility situation of the Morang district has been assessed based on serviceability of the
transport linkage i.e. all weather and fair weather type of roads. In Morang district, except
strategic road, all are fair weather roads. Study reveals that accessibility area can be
categorized into accessible and partially accessibilbe VDC. Table 5.1 shows that about 93.28
% (1,699.50 Sq.km) of total area are under accessible area based on serviceability of all
weather raod. Similarly all total area falls under accessible area based on serviceability of all
fair weather raod. Only 4 VDCs have fair weather serviceability situation. The following table
shows the accessibility area, coverage and population.

5.5 Delineation of inaccessible Area
After separating accessible areas, the identified un-served areas and considered by the
planning team to propose road network to improve their accessibiity.
5.6 Inaccessible Area, Coverage and Population
Table 5.2 shows that about 6.73 % (122.55 Sq.km) of total area are found inaccessible in the
case of all weather serviceability of road. Only 1 VDC is found under inaccessible area. The
following table shows the inaccessibility area, coverage and population.

5.7 Network planning in inaccessible Area
After separatinginaccessible area, preliminary road networks have been prepared based on the
nodal points/market centres and policy provision that people should reach to the road head of
all weather roads within 4 hours walk. The preliminary road networks have been presented in
DTICC meeting and Cluster of llaka level workshop where the proposed road networks for
those inaccessible areas were finalised and agreed.

CHAPTER VI: DISTRICT TRANSPORT PERSPECTIVE PLAN

(DTPP)
6.1 Perspective Plan of District Rural Road Networks
The DTPP has a perspective of 20 years. The DTPP is revised every five years when a new
DTMP is prepared according to the rolling plan system.
6.2 Scoring system for prioritisation of Rural Roads Class A and Class B for
Upgrading
The following criteria are proposed for prioritisation of District and Village Roads for Upgradig.
Table 6.1: Scoring System for Prioritisation for Upgrading
S. No. Criteria Scoring Unit Score

1 Traffic Volume TU 70
2 Cost Cost /km 20
3 Market /service centre Centrality Index 10
Total 100
Parameters for Prioritization for New Linkage
Traffic Volume
Information of traffic data has been collected from the field.The volume and type of traffic
movements is the major indicator for assessing the relative importance of existing road links.
However, most of the roads are being considered for rehabilitation/upgrading are fair weather
earthen roads that are in a poor state or closed to traffic, the conduct of a traffic census is
usually not effective in providing the data required. Instead, the data on traffic movement is
gathered from RRA and discussions with key individuals within the road corridor and at district
and village level. Scores are awarded on the basis of the estimated traffic volumes on each of
the roads being considered for rehabilitation. In accordance with traffic coefficients given in
DoLIDAR's "Approach for the Development of Rural and Agricultural Roads", large trucks
(more than 10 tones carrying capacity) and buses (Over 40 passengers) are given a weight of
4.0, small trucks (up to 10 tones carrying capacity) and buses (up to 40 passengers) are given
3.0 and tractors (4W towed trailers) are given a weight of 3.0, cars and pick-ups, light-vans,
jeeps are given a weight of 1.0.
The road having the highest beneficiaries population per investment cost is given highest score
i.e. 70. The scoring of the individual District Road A and B based on traffic unit is given in
annex.
6
Costs
Cost estimate is based on the data collected during the walkover survey for inventory of
existing road. Unit costs are calculated on the basis of district approved rate for labour and
materials. The linkage having the lowest per km cost get the highest score i.e. 20. The scoring
of the individual District Road A and B based on cost is given in annex.
________________________________________________________________________________________

Market/Service Centres
Market Survey is carried out to identify market and service centre. Data and information
collected in the field is used to determine the importance on relative importance of
market/service centre and central places. For evaluation purpose, data of offices, industry,
business & commerce, education, and health, are combined for the centre and its influence
area. Assessment of economic facilities and services existing in the market/service centres and
their catchments areas leads to the identification of the most important market/service centre.
All proposed roads scores based on centrality index of market /service centre by using same
calculation method. The linkage having the lowest per km cost get the highest score i.e. 10.
The scoring of the individual District Road A and B based on centrality index is given in annex.
The total scoring of all parameters per road corridor for prioritization of District Road A and B
for Upgrading have been compiled in Table 6.2 and 6.3 respecticely as following.
6.3 Prioritized Existing Transport Linkages for Upgrading
6.3.1 Prioritized List of District Road ‘A’ For Upgrading to Black Top and Gravel
(All Weather)
Based on socio-technical analysis and techno-political interface during the several field level
and district level meetings during the field level study, it has been proposed that sixteen
numers of district A type of roads need to upgrade to Black Top. These entire sixteen roads
have been taken in long tern pespspective plan. About 310.5 km length of road would be
upgraded to Black Top. Similarly five roads which are earthen and their serviceability is fair-
weather type, have been proposed for upgrading to gravel to bring these road upto all weather
condition. The details are given in below table 6.2 and 6.3.

Morang district Chapter I: Introduction
7.7: Recommendation
7.7.1 Adherance of DTMP

The main issue of the district is difficult geographical situation requiring huge financial
resources for its sustainable infrastructure development. Rational planning and proper
implementation are two sides of coin; negligence in one part will make other meaningless.
DDC should stop current practice of ad-hoc decision making on investing in roads with
short-term consideration.
It is strongly recommended that following approval from the District Council, DDC shall
strictly use and require require other distirct level institutions to use the DTMP in particularl
the Perspective Plan of District Road Network, in deciding the sub-projects to be
undertaken for development even beyond the five-year period. Strong commitment from all
stakeholders is necessary for its implementation. It is also suggested that the DTMP shall
be revised at the end of the fifth year after evaluating previous planning. DDC should
proceed with required changes in the DTMP if the district development potentials change
significantly.
7.7.2 Construction Approach
It is recommended to adopt Labour based Environmental friendly and Participatory (LEP)

approach popularly known as Green Roads construction method. Green Road approach aims
at reducing scarring by minimizing the amount of cut necessary and by balancing the amount
of material cut with the amount of fill required. Fill material is disposed of in layers “tippling
areas”, adjacent to the roads on the valley side and were necessary dry stone retaining walls
are used to retain this on the road as well as in the tipping areas. Gabion structures are used
for retaining structures over 3 meters high. Fill material is further protected by bamboo
terracing and re-vegetation programs. In areas where large cut are unavoidable and it is
uneconomical to transport the earth for long distance, surplus material is disposed of over the
valley side. However, dry stone check dams or breast walls are built at intervals down the
slope to retain this material.
Following are the main aspects of LEP/Green Roads Approach.
Labour based:
Labour is one of Nepal’s largest resources and it is also one of the country’s most under
utilized resource especially in the agricultural slack period of October to May. During this
period, underemployment is a problem in most districts when farmers need to supplement their
agricultural income with off-farm work. The creation of short and medium-term employment is
one of the major aims of the LEP approach.
Labour is employed from within a one to two hour walk from a construction site. They bring
their own food and do not require accommodation, so the complications arising out of
encampment are avoided. Some 65% to 90% of the construction cost is paid in wages, so the
major part of the investment remains in the district and has a trickle down beneficial effect on
the whole community. Local labourers learn skills that they can apply on their farms, use of
future employment and which are beneficial for later road maintenance work. Labour is
organized into group of 15 to 20 persons each with a group leader.
Environmental friendly:
I-157
District Transport Master Plan (DTMP, Morang
A phased construction method is an essential part of this construction approach. Machine and
outside contract oriented construction activities are not allowed in this method. The use of
explosives is usually prohibited and rock splitter is used for breaking hard rocks. The improper
use of explosives for blasting can destabilize mountain slopes and lead to environmental
damage.
Due to very steep slopes, inherently unstable geology and harsh monsoon climate, standard
engineering practices are not always the optimum solution for protecting roadside slopes in
Nepal. Bio-engineering with vegetation can play an important role in stabilizing the surface
layers of any slope. Vegetation with wide spreading root systems binds soil together and
increases its sheer strength and limits the extent of slope failure.
Participatory Approach:
All stakeholders in the district and local people are involved in the process of planning,
implementation, monitoring and evaluation and maintenance and operation of district/rural
roads. LEP approach can only succeed if the local government and the people of the district
feel a collective responsibility of the construction and maintenance of the district and village
roads. The people will only assume this responsibility if they are the main benefactors of the
program, both in terms of income earned during the construction phase and user benefit during
the operation phase. Locally based and elected officials and organization is the best vehicle to
represent the interests of local people and this is reflected in the User Committees constituted
using LEP approach.

I-159
There are about 1235.46 Km length of the district road which are to be upgraded to all weather
road standards. DOR is upgrading two district roads. Kanepokhari - Dandagaun - Budhaare
and Urlabari - Madhumalla - Daregaunda, which were district roads in previous DTMP is now
shifted to feeder roads and thus not included as district roads. Moreover, Mid-Hill Highway
“Dharan – Damak” is also being constructed from east to west of Morang district linking to the
district headquarters almost parallel to the East – West Highway.
There are four numbers of existing main trails with total 73 km length and there are 12
numbers of existing trail bridges in the Morang district. Seventy two new trail bridges are
identified as prospective bridges for new construction, in which 31 trail bridges are planned for
construction within five years period of DTMP.
There are 19 numbers of district road class A (480.88Km) and 82 of district road class B
(754.58 Km) in DTPP. These roads are necessary for upgrading in gravel as well as blacktop
in DTPP.
The percentage for sharing of budget agreed in DTICC meeting is 30 %, 65% and 5 % for
Rehabilitation/Upgrading to gravel, upgrading to black top and maintenance respectively of the
district. Total projected financial resource for 5 years is NRs. 1,69,77,73,000.
Based on likely available budget and sharing of budget, sixteen numbers of District Roads ‘A’
with total length of 230 km and fifteen numbers of District Roads ‘B’ with total length 99 km
could be targeted for upgrading to Blacktop in five year period of DTMP. Similarly, 155.89 km
length from six District Roads A and 136 km length from fourteen District Roads B have been
proposed for Rehabilitation/ upgrading to gravel. For maintenance, there are 755 Km of A
class road and 1132 Km of class B road in five year period of DTMP.
