Cost Benefit Analysis in Public Project Appraisal (PPAC)Neil Mathew
This document discusses cost-benefit analysis for public projects. It notes that public projects are difficult to evaluate using traditional financial metrics due to their intangible nature. Cost-benefit analysis is introduced as an alternative method. It involves identifying and valuing in monetary terms all relevant costs and benefits to determine if total benefits exceed total costs. The document outlines the key steps in a cost-benefit analysis, including identifying and categorizing costs and benefits, valuing them using various techniques, and calculating metrics like the benefit-cost ratio to evaluate projects. It provides an example case study of conducting a cost-benefit analysis for constructing a forest road.
The document provides information on dams including:
- Dams are barriers constructed across rivers to store water and create reservoirs. They are used for water storage, irrigation, power generation, flood control and more.
- Dams are classified based on their structure (e.g. gravity, arch, earthfill), materials (e.g. concrete, earth, rockfill), and hydraulic design (e.g. overflow, non-overflow).
- The Sardar Sarovar Dam on the Narmada River in India is a large concrete gravity dam that provides irrigation, hydropower, and drinking water but has also faced significant controversy and protests.
The Sardar Sarovar Dam project on the Narmada River in India has faced significant opposition. It aims to provide water for drinking, irrigation, and power but will displace over 300,000 people. While proponents argue it will benefit millions, opponents say the displaced people have not received adequate compensation and resettlement. The World Bank withdrew funding in 1993 after an independent review found social and environmental impacts were increasing. Protests by groups like Narmada Bachao Andolan continue as they argue basic conditions and studies have not been fulfilled and local people were not sufficiently involved. There remains ongoing debate around both benefits and costs of the project.
The Bandra-Worli Sea Link is an 8-lane cable-stayed bridge that connects Bandra in the Western Suburbs to Worli in Central Mumbai. Construction of the 5.6 km long bridge, 3.8 km of which is over the sea, was a complex project involving international engineering teams and costing over Rs. 1,600 crore. The Sea Link helps reduce travel time between Bandra and Worli to just 7 minutes, easing traffic and cutting costs. However, it has also led to some new congestion issues in Worli and on nearby roads.
The Sabarmati Riverfront project in Ahmedabad, India aims to reclaim the river banks as public space and restore the city's relationship with the river. It involves reducing the river width, constructing walls to prevent erosion and flooding, and interceptor sewers to prevent waste from flowing into the river. The project also resettled over 11,000 families from the river banks and rehabilitated vendors and laundries displaced by the project. Work began in 2005 and includes developing promenades, gardens, markets and other public amenities along the 9km stretch of the river passing through the city.
The document discusses urban transport challenges in Indian cities, with a focus on bus mobility. It notes that while many cities were sanctioned bus fleets under a national program, few built the necessary supporting infrastructure like depots and stops. Barriers to effective bus systems included lack of preventative maintenance, limited feeder services, and traffic congestion reducing speeds. The Smart Cities Mission aims to address these issues through projects focused on physical, operational and technological improvements to public transport like bus rapid transit systems, electric buses, and real-time passenger information. Bicycle infrastructure is also being expanded in some smart cities, with over $25 million committed across 20 cities.
