DistrictTransportMasterPlan(DTMP):Saptari FinalReport
Foreword
It is my great pleasure to introduce this District transport Master Plan (DTMP) of Saptari District. I believe that this DTMP will be very helpful in providing single approach on sustainable planning, resource mobilization, implementation and monitoring for the development of rural road sub-sector. Transport facilities help in developing access of rural urban linkages also. Road accessibility can reduce isolation, stimulate crop production and marketing activities, encourage public services and help technology transfer. Road building has been seen to bring about notable enthusiasm and visible changes in rural life. Thus, this document is expected to generate substantial opportunities for the employment of rural people through the commercialization, industrialization and diversification of traditional agricultural system of the rural area. For the rational and effective use of available resource of DDC, development of rural road sector in planned and sustainable way is the most crucial requirement. Viewing these aspects, the DTMP of Saptari District which comprises the existing and proposed rural roads network with their prioritization for new construction, rehabilitation and periodic maintenance will of course be a strong guideline for the ultimate development of the District. This document is also assumed to be helpful in drawing the attention of the donor agencies. It will also be justifiable for the central government to allocate adequate resources for transport sector development of the district. Furthermore, this document will make the work easy for resource allocation to rural roads by avoiding duplication between the different development agencies. Last but not least, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to RAIDP, DoLIDAR for the endevour of updating/preparing this DTMP. I would also like express my gratitude to all experts whose diligent effort has been clearly reflected in this document. I would warmly appreciate any creative and positive suggestions regarding this document.

Executive Summary
It is obvious that transport is one of the major components to improve access of the people to services and facilities through increased mobility. Increased mobility results in better linkages with the market centres, agricultural production pocket areas and help in generating numerous opportunities in the district. With transport sector interventions and planning based on accessibility considerations, District Transport Master Plan (DTMP) for a district offers long term perspective for the planned development of the rural roads network in the district. Thus, DTMP is being developed in Saptari District including other programmed Districts to support for the probable investments in the development of systematic transport system with appropriate guidelines and criteria for rational decision making process. Saptari District is located in Sagarmatha Zone of the Eastern Development Region of Nepal. It extends from 86o 28' to 87o 07' east and 26o 25' to 26o 47' north. As per the census of 2001, total population of the district is 570282 comprising of 278873 female and 291409 male clustered in 101141 households with household size of 5.64 and annual population growth rate of 2.03%. Average population density of district is 418 per sq. km. In order to arrive at the socio-economic profile of various existing and potential market centers, the consultant has studied relevant documents/reports and conducted detailed socio-economic survey through consultation and interaction with program/project personnels and the local people. From such study, a total of 64 existing and potential market centers were identified and considered for present analysis. Based upon the centrality index, each existing market center is graded as A, B and C using updated guideline of district transport master plan of DoLIDAR and the potential markets as Others. From such analysis, total number of existing markets centers of grade A, B and C were 6, 14 and 13 respectively and the remaining 31 markets as other potential ones. All the rural roads network in Saptari district consist of 115 roads comprising a total of nearly 653.31 km. length which are classified as class A, B and C in accordance with the Interim Guidelines of DTMP prepared by DoLIDAR. From such classification, 12 roads comprising a total length of 251.69 km. were found under class A, 17 roads comprising a total length of 143.76 km. under class B and the rest under class C. Similarly, under pedestrian mobility a total of 7 trail bridges have been recorded within the district. Besides rural road network, this district consists of 195.93 km. of strategic roads, one highway of 59 km. length, five feeder roads, 111.35 km. length and one postal road 25 km long. From these data, it can be regarded that Saptari district is in a relatively better transport situation. However, most of the district roads are earth/gravel surface, mostly in fair weather condition and need to be upgraded. Present study also reveals that accessibility areas can be categorized into accessible and partially accessible VDCs. After a through study of rural transport network and the related socio-economic and development trend of existing and potential market centers of the district, a total of 10 km. of one district road of class A and 70 km. of 8 district roads of class B and 7 trail bridges are proposed for new construction. Similarly, 251.69 km. of 12 district roads of class A and 143.76 km. of 17 district roads of class B roads are proposed for maintenance and upgrading/rehabilitation in the present District Transport Perspective Plan (DTPP). The first five-year financial plan is prepared on the basis of the present available financial resources and the existing trend of funding from various sources and their projections for the next five years. Total projected financial resource for the first five year is NRs. 855,141,360.00. Sharing of the total

CHAPTERI:INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
Saptari district is located in Sagarmatha zone of Eastern Development Region and it covers an area of 1363 square kilometer within latitude 2625 N to 2647N and longitude 8628E to 8707E. Saptari district is surrounded by the borders of north state of India, Bihar to the South, Sunsari to the East, Siraha to the West & Udaypur to the north. According to the national census 2001, the total population of the district is 5,70,282 comprising 2,91,409 male and 2,78,873 female. Subsistence agriculture farming, mainly traditional agriculture is the main source of occupation and livelihood of the majority of the population. Chhinmasta Bhagawati Temple and Kankalini Bhagawati Temples are the main famous and holy pilgrimage place in this district. There are other many holy temples in this district. The district is served by surface transport facilities linking the district with the national strategic road network through East West Highway. The network of feeder roads, district roads, Postal road and village roads are increasing significantly in the district. However, district and village roads and postal roads are mostly in poor condition which requires upgrading/rehabilitation and proper maintenance. Development activities are mainly dependent on the transport facilities available. Adequate roads network in any district is the key infrastructure for good transportation. Transport facilities help in developing access to rural-urban linkages; stimulate crop production and marketing activities. Road accessibility can reduce isolation; encourage availing public services and help to transfer technology. Road construction has been seen to bring about notable enthusiasm and visible changes in rural life. However, in the absence of rational criteria and professional guidelines, road constructions are carried out in an adhoc manner in many of the districts. District Transport Master Plan (DTMP) is being developed in the district to support investments in transport development with appropriate guideline and criteria for rational and transparent decision making process. Transport is one of the major components to improve peoples access to services and facilities through increased mobility which ultimately results in better linkages with market centres/agricultural production pocket areas and other opportunities in the district. With transport sector interventions and planning based on accessibility considerations, District Transport Master Plan (DTMP) for a district offers long term perspective for the planned development of the rural roads network in the district. District Transport Master Plan is primarily a reflection of existing transport infrastructure situation and future potential ones in consistent with the resources available in the district. DTMP essentially covers the rural transport infrastructures, which are funded, supported and implemented by DDCs. The DTMP preparation strongly advocates meaningful participation of all key stakeholders of rural roads in the planning process, which makes 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 and cluster or Ilaka level workshops, formal/informal meeting, focus group discussions and transit walk etc. At every stage of its preparation, careful consideration is to be given to ensure easy access and active participation of representstives from line agencies, major political parties, social leaders, local level NGOs, women organizations, dalit and janajatis coordination committees, disabled people, chamber of commerce, transportation association etc. The approach is to work towards consensus building among all the stakeholders. A comprehensive DTMP serves as a planning document when potential donor agencies, line agencies and development partners will have ready made tool to discuss with the district authority for possible transport sector investments. DTMP becomes an authoritative document of the district
DistrictTransportMasterPlan(DTMP):Saptari FinalReport 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. Proper planning and sustainability are the key issues for development of rural transport network. As stated in the National Strategy (MoLD, 1997), the long term vision of the Government of Nepal for road sector, 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 in a decentralized environment.

Collection and Review of Secondary Sources of Information
Secondary data were collected from annual report published by district level offices and consultation with stakeholders such as District Agriculture Development Office (DADO), District Veterinary Office (DVO), District Development Committee (DDC), District Education Office (DEO), Women Development Office (WDO), District Forest Office (DFO), Small Cottage Industries and Local Business Entrepreneurs etc. Field study was carried out for general socio-economic assessment of the district. During the field study, data collection was done from primary and secondary sources by using P-RRA and consultation methods with emphasis on related data/information. Field survey method has focused on collection of data regarding area, location and significance of development potential areas such as extensive agriculture, horticulture, livestock farming, high value cash crops, cottage and agrobased industries, centre for business/commerce/markets places, tourism area, service centers; e.g. hospital, health post, agriculture service sub-centre etc. from published reports and documents by line agencies. The information about demographic data of district, maps, service flow pattern, various maps showing service centers or the location of SOR (Service of Road) facilities, transport infrastructure inventory, past plans and sector study reports, sector standards and policy targets were collected from the secondary sources - Bureau of Statistics, Kathmandu, Survey Department, Local NGOs, line agencies, DDC, etc. The details on the documents collected are summarized below:
DistrictTransportMasterPlan(DTMP):SaptariFinalReport List of documents Previous reports of DTMP prepared by the DDC. District profile prepared by DDC. Annual report of Agriculture Development Office, District Veterinary Office, report of District Education Office etc. Report on settlement pattern and market centers of the district. Demographic statistics and socio-economic feature of the district. Collection of Maps Topo maps of the 1:25000 scales, for use as base map. Digitized topographic maps of department of survey. District administrative map. District Trail Maps, Helvetas/ TBSU. Strategic road network map of DoR.
2.4
Collections of Primary Data and Analysis
Primary information on existing accessibility level of settlements was derived from the communities, VDC officials, school teachers and other related organizations/individuals during the field investigation period to a standard format specially developed for this purpose. The primary data has been collected from local people through answer to the structured questionnaires which were filled up by the enumerators. Tracking of the existing road network has been carried out by enumerators employed by consultants using the GPS.
2.5
Preparation of Indicative Development Potential Map
IDPM is basically the indication of the existing and potential market/service centers (key growth centers) and the areas having various development potentials such as high value cash crops, agrobased industries and tourism. Thus, IDPM shows the areas of high value cash crops, tourism potential, extensive agriculture, extensive horticulture, livestock farming, fisheries, NTFP/ MAPs, hydropower location and the other social service centers areas such as hospital, post office, telecommunication, school, campus, VDC centers, security offices and large settlements, important historic and religious places. Finally, it indicates the grading of various markets of the district thus providing the basis of network planning. Existing/potential areas are defined 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
DistrictTransportMasterPlan(DTMP):SaptariFinalReport Market Survey Market Survey was carried out to identify market and service centre. Data and information collected in the field were the basis for determining the relative importance of market/service centre and central places. All services existing in a particular centre listed by the district line agencies were also collected from the respective districts and supplemented by more detailed field data such as economic population structure for the centre itself and its influence area, by means of P-RRA approach. For evaluation purpose, data from government offices, Industry, Business & Commerce, Education, Health, Communication, Electricity Supply, Drinking Water Supply services were combined for the centre and its influence area. Assessment of economic facilities and services existing in the market/service centers and their influence areas lead to the identification of the most important market/service centre. Centrality analysis of the market facilities and government services were carried out. The Centrality Index is calculated using following formula Cj = (W Xij) 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 weightage of each function is calculated by adopting the Median Threshold Population Technique. The Median Threshold Population Technique calculates the weightage as: Median population of the ith function Lowest median population of the market centers, where a function exists
Wi =
The collected information was plotted on the base map indicating their geographical boundaries as accurately as possible. Draft Indicative Development Potential Map (IDPM) of the district was prepared by plotting all the development potential areas and sites on the Base map. Brief notes on each of the potential development areas plotted were prepared by highlighting the nature and size of the area.
2.6

The inventory survey of the existing rural roads was carried out and necessary interventions such as new construction, rehabilitation, periodic maintenance, regular maintenance etc. were identified. The information/data on existing rural infrastructures was taken using Global Positioning System (GPS) instruments including GPS tracking of existing roads. GPS tracking constituted major activity for DIM preparation, which has taken 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 were collected during inventory survey. The DIM was presented and discussed in the DTICC meetings and the mode of interventions on rehabilitations, maintenance and upgrading of the existing rural roads was agreed. The required interventions were analyzed based on accessibility situation.
The following steps were taken for preparation of DIM report:
DistrictTransportMasterPlan(DTMP):SaptariFinalReport Presentation on DIM and IDPM was made in one day meeting with DTICC. This meeting then finalized the proposed IDPM and DIM plans.

Gradation of Market centers was done based on the centrality index as Market grade A (> 100), grade B (50- 100), grade C (25-50), and potential (< 25). GIS map of nodal centers was prepared according to the grading of market centers. All the market centers based on their hierarchy lying within the core of the central place was plotted in GIS map. After plotting all market centers, all the existing roads were overlaid on the GIS Map. Accessibility situation was analyzed using GIS model. Buffering along the left and right of the existing all weather road was carried out on the basis of walking distance of 2 hours for Terai and 4 hours for hills. These delineated areas were considered as accessible area. The planning tree proposes road network for the inaccessible area identified by the ZoI analysis. Preliminary road network plan for inaccessible areas was prepared based on the nodal points/market centers and government policy of 2 hours and 4 hours walking distances. Rural roads identified are categorized 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 clusters of Ilaka level workshops, DTICC meetings was conducted and the proposed preliminary road network plan for inaccessible areas was presented and discussed to verify and obtain preliminary approval of the proposed road networks. All suggestions and feedbacks were collected from DTICC meetings and incorporated them into the preliminary proposed road network plans. Preliminary road network plan was presented and discussed in series of Ilaka level workshops to collect the views of the participants and proposal for DTPP. Road network plan was thus finalized in the workshop. In the workshop, the DTMP study team had made presentation clarifying the objective of the DTMP and process of its preparation. Plenary discussion was organized to verify the views of local participants on new demands as well as existing road networks.

Financial Resource Assessment and Projection
In Nepal, DDCs are heavily relying on GoN grant and donors contribution and is expected this situation to be prevailed for next couple of years. Besides the GoN grant, involvement of VDC, line agency participation, international donors and NGO contribution have also been examined. In this context, resource projection became very difficult task. The Consultant has thoroughly collected, reviewed and analyzed the expenditures made by the respective DDCs and other agencies in rural transportation sector in last five years and estimated the availability of financial resources for the next five years. Since this is being a very important task, it was carried out in close consultation & cooperation with the related Account Section and Planning Section of the respective DDCs. NGOs and other relevant district level offices were also consulted during this stage. The Consultant in consultation with respective DDCs tried to make provisions for allocation of necessary funds in yearly basis by linkage and intervention type i.e. routine maintenance, periodic maintenance, rehabilitation, upgrading and new construction works.

Preparation of District Transport Perspective Plan (DTPP)

Scoring System for Prioritization of Proposed New Roads
A network consists of several links. It is not possible to construct all roads at a time due to resource and time constraint. Therefore, each link in a network needs to be prioritized. After developing a district level network, a road engineer prepares the cost estimate of the road and assesses benefit of each link in the network. In the present study, Cost Efficiency Analysis (CEA) was used to prioritize new transport linkage. Criteria such as per capita cost and special social consideration (of inclusiveness) receive certain weightage (points) relative to their perceived importance. Each road link was then allocated the number of points corresponding to the fulfillment of the particular criteria. The aggregate number of points that each intervention receives was computed by simply adding the points allocated per indicator. The result of this process leads to a ranking of the investment options. The following criteria were used for prioritization of new transport linkages. Existing population within the zone of influence, accessibility situation, land use pattern, environmental and social safeguard, proximity to the market/cervice centers, religious and tourism places were taken as the indicators for prioritization of rural roads. According to the importance of each of these indicators in transport sector, different score has been assigned to each of them as given in table 2.2. Table 2.2: Scoring System for Prioritization of New Linkages
SN 1 2 3 4 5 6 Parameter Population (Within the Zone of influences) Inaccessibility Cultivated Land (Within the Zone of influences) Environment and Social Safeguard a) Population of Dalit and Janajati (Within the Zone of influences) b) Loss of forest due to road alignment Market/service centre Religious centre/ Tourist place Scoring Unit Population/Km Population Walking hour Hectare / Km Population / Km Hectare / Km Centrality Index Number of spot Score 40 15 15 10 5 10 5
Calculation of Scores for Prioritization of New, Rehabilitation and Upgrading of Roads In order to make the indicators comparable their results have to be transformed to dimensionless indices using the zero-to-one method. The following formula was applied to each indicator for all the areas of investigation (For high value ranking) d = ((x-min) * Max score)/( Max-min) Where, d x Max min = = = = transformed indicator original indicator value maximum original value minimum original value
For each area of investigation, the road link with the highest indicator value d results in 1 multiplied by the highest mark available under the relevant indicators. (Note: to avoid possible confusion, the value of lowest score, zero is transformed by relating it to the value of second lowest score using pro-rata distribution method)

DistrictTransportMasterPlan(DTMP):SaptariFinalReport (For low value ranking) d = (max-x) multiply by score/( Max-min) Where, d x Max min = = = = transformed indicator original indicator value maximum original value minimum original value
For each area of investigation, the road link with the lowest indicator value d results in 1 multiplied by the maximum available score. (Note: to avoid possible confusion, the value of lowest score, zero is transformed by relating it to the value of second lowest score using pro-rata distribution method) 2.9.2 Scoring System for Prioritization of Rural Roads, Class A and B for Upgrading/ Rehabilitation Similar to prioritization of new linkages, prioritization system for upgrading/rehabilitation has also been adopted. In this case, one additional indicator, traffic volume which significantly contribute to the urgency of upgrading/rehabilitation roadshas been considered. Different indicators and the score assigned to each of them in accordance with their importance in transport sector are given in table 2.3.

Prioritization of Trail Bridges
The prioritization was based on following formula derived on the basis of a simulation model using ICIMOD indices, related poverty, education, health etc. used by TBSU as follows: Prioritization Formula for New Construction SSTB : LSTB : {(2.041 P+2.856 MP)DG} {{(12-RT)(1+RF/100)}/12} 0.3 {(2.041 P+2.856 MP) DG} {{(12-RT) (1+RF/100)}/12}

Preparation of Five Year District Transport Master Plan (DTMP)

The DTPP is used as the primary documents based on which the District Transport Master Plan is prepared. The available financial resource of the district for and spent on rural transportation sector was assessed from past trend and forecasted the budget in the basis of this for coming years. Moreover, the tentative budget plan for coming five years was prepared in consultation with DDC. The interventions and road linkages identified in the DTPP were prioritised then selected high scored roads for coming five years plan whatever the budget sufficiency. Final workshop was organized at the DDC where the prioritisation of roads was approved.
Following steps are considered to prepare the DTMP.
2.11
Endorsement of the Five Year DTMP of District RTI Network
DDC should submit the final District Transport Master Plan to District Council for approval. DTICC with support of planning team, will brief to the Council on the entire process of preparation of DTMP including scoring system for prioritization. The DTMP is finally approved by the District Council.

CHAPTERIV:DISTRICTINVENTORYMAPOFRURALROADNETWORK
4.1 Existing Transport Situation
Saptari district has no air transport service to complement the surface transport facilities. Inner and inter district mobility and as such the development activities fully depend on expansion of rural road network within the district. In Saptari district, the existing transport system constitutes the strategic roads (highways and feeder road), district and village roads, and trail bridges. Strategic roads within the district are all weather and play vital role in the overall transportation system of the district. List of strategic roads is given in table 4.1. There are numerous district and village roads. From the field study, it has been observed that most of them are in fair weather condition. Most of these roads have been constructed on an adhoc basis without proper planning and engineering design. In the present work, detailed study of these roads have been made and prioritized to their contribution to enhance the rural transport network system of the district. The study team has found Saptari district in a relatively better transport situation. This district has an easy surface transport connection with major market and commercial cities namely Itahari, Biratnagar in the east, Lahan in the west. However, most of the rural roads are in poor condition and need to be improved /upgraded for safe and reliable journey. Prime objective of the present study is to prepare a master plan of rural transport network of the district. Consultant has therefore, focused mainly on the detailed study of district and village roads as described in the subsequent sections. Strategic roads are only shown to show the relative linkages to the rural roads. Table 4.1 List of National Highway/Feeder Roads

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 off in layers tipping 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 bioengineering 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 off over the valley side. However, dry stone check dams or breast walls are built at intervals down the slope to terrain this material. Following are the main aspects of LEP/Green Road Approach. Labour Based Labour is one of Nepals largest resources and it is also one of the countrys 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 employment 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 80% 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 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 protection 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 system binds soil together and increases its sheer strength and limits the extent of slope failure.
41
DistrictTransportMasterPlan(DTMP):SaptariFinalReport 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 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.

CHAPTERV:DISTRICTROADNETWORKPLANNING
Rural transportation provision is mainly to improve accessibility of the people to markets and services; and promote economic activities through employment generation and marketing of local products. In context of Nepal, a fixed point system model is adopted for networking where junctions are confined to a finite set of locations such as markets, historical/archeological locations.
5.1
Accessibility Situation
Saptari district is rich in road networks comprises 6 numbers of strategic roads, 12 numbers of class A district roads and 17 numbers of class-B district roads. According to DoR and DDC sources there are 122.89 Km blacktopped, 47.5 km graveled and 25 km earthen strategic road, 251.69 Km class A district road and 143.76 km class B district road scattered over the district. Road density is high in southern part of district comparing to northern part demarcated by East West Highway. Northern part of East West Highway is almost covered by Chure forest and river bed. Being the district headquarters, Rajbiraj is located at almost centres of district and linked by Rupni-RajbirajKunauli Feeder road with East West Highway and other more feeder and district roads linked with DHQ. Population of middle and surrounding part of Saptari fully depends on Rajbiraj to receive higher degree of function. But people of southern part and proximity of East West Highway have choice to get higher degree function either from India or Lahan of Siraha.
5.2
Zone of Influence Area
National Transport Policy has considered 2 hrs walking distance as the zone of influence (ZoI) for the plain terrain. Mainly influencing factors such as a) existence of rivers and b) existence of river crossing facilities were used in determining the ZoI. The zone of influence area is determined by two ways concerning the road facility viz. all weather and fair weather service. According to GIS analysis all 64 market centres have been covered by all weather as well as fair weather roads.
5.3
Delineation of Accessible Area
Delineation of accessible within ZoI is carried out using the GIS Model for Strategic roads and district roads in three different categories viz. 20 minutes, 2hrs and 4hrs walking time to reach the nearest road head (ref Map no. 3a and 3b). From the accessibility analysis, approximately 97% of people and 91% of the areas coverage are within ZoI for strategic road network. Similarly, 93% of the areas coverage and 98% of people are within ZoI for strategic and district road networks (Table 5.1 and 5.2). This indicates that at present existing road networks cover almost all areas and population accessible to motorable roads. However, there are still some area and population mainly of northern part of district to be linked by new motorable road network.
Table 5.1 All Weather Accessibility with respect to Area Coverage, and Population Coverage Walking Time 20 minutes 2 Hours Total Population 446,980 183,098 630,078 Population % 69 28 97 Area coverage (Sq.Km) 629 543 1182 Area % 49 42 91

5.4
Inaccessible Area
In Saptari district, large part of area and market centers is within accessible area. All existing/potential market centres are linked by at least fair weather class B district roads. Few part of northern (Bakdhuwa, Bhangaha VDCs) and area covered by Koshi wildlife preservation of Saptari are inaccessible to road network (ref map 3a and 3b). These areas have covered by Chure forest.
5.5
Delineation of Inaccessible Area
Excluding accessible area from the GIS model, all the remaining areas are delineated as inaccessible area. Just reverse to the accessible area 3%, population and 9% areas coverage are inaccessible to strategic road head within ZoI. Similarly, 2% of the areas coverage and 7% population are out of ZoI for all weather and district road network.
5.6
Network Planning in Inaccessible Area
With the detail study of accessibility, network planning was carried out for further extension of road network in inaccessible areas in meeting the National Transport Policy. The road network is planned basically adopting two methods viz incremental and comprehensive. Increment method specially deals with inaccessible area beyond the 2 hrs walking distance from existing road network in terai. But the there is marginal inaccessible area in Saptari district, therefore incremental method is not applicable. Thus new road network is planned by comprehensive method. In this method, road network are planned such that the identified market centers are connected as the nodal points. Similarly, during the planning, possible synchronization of road linkage with the abutting districts was carried out. In this method, market centers are taken as a nodal point and tried to link those points each other. There is altogether 64 market centres categorized as class A, class B, Class C and potential depends upon their functions and score. Almost market centres are linked with road network in Saptari District. Some market centres are planned to link and expansion of road network is underway for this purpose. There are 8 roads identified to link one market centre to other or link with adjacent border road network. In total 70 km of district road network has been planned connecting market centers and adjacent district border road network. Detail of each proposed road corridor is given in Table 5.3 below.

CHAPTERVI:DISTRICTTRANSPORTPERSPECTIVEPLAN(DTPP)
6.1 Perspective Plan of District Rural Road Networks
The DTPP has perspective of 20 years. The DTPP is revised every five years when a new DTMP is being prepared according to the rolling plan system.
6.2
Existing Road Network System
As explained in District Inventory Map of Rural Transport Network, Chapter IV, Saptari district consists of highways, feeder road, district roads and village roads including trail bridges for pedestrian mobility. Strategic roads are all weather and in good condition. They have been referred to show the linkages of other roads with them and as such they have not been considered in the present planning process. Rural roads are scattered throughout the district. Many of them are partially completed. Network planning thus requires construction of new road for incomplete ones and also the addition of new linkages to connect inaccessible areas; maintenance and upgrading/ rehabilitation of existing roads.

CHAPTERVII:FIRSTFIVEYEARDISTRICTTRANSPORTMASTERPLAN
7.1 First Five-Year District Transport Master Plan
District transport prospective plan (DTPP) as discussed in the previous chapter covers a wider period, generally 20 years of implementation requiring significant financial input. Based upon the prioritized transport linkages and the projected financial plan, first five year-year District Transport Master Plan (DTMP) indicating the year-wise target has been prepared. Various categories of interventions such as new construction, maintenance and upgrading/rehabilitation for roads including the trail bridges have been prepared and presented in this report.
7.2
Five Year Projected Financial Plan
Major sources of funding to rural road network development are mainly the DDC development grant, VDC allocation, DDC's and VDC's own resources, DoLIDAR support, GONs grant and support from other donor agencies. While preparing the financial plan, current available financial resources and the existing trend of funding from various agencies was identified and this is then projected for the next five years to prepare the First Five-year Financial Plan as presented in table 7.1.

CHAPTERVIII:CONCLUSION
8.1 Conclusion
Road transportation is most crucial for socio-economic development of district. DDC should give more emphasis on resource collection and its efficient mobilization. This DTMP will guide for this purpose too. The DTMP is the result of studies considering socio-economic, environmental analysis and potentiality of various sectors as well as the accessibility to transport facilities in the district, which will draw the future scenario of the district rural road development and consequently the overall development of the district. DTMP focuses on existing transportation situation, expected future road network accessibility and socio-economic benefits. It provides directives on utilization of the local resources by local institutions as well as other development agencies in line with the decentralization and local self-government act. In addition, it will provide Government and other donor agencies a rational basis on which to decide future investments efficiently that will improve district transport accessibility situation. The proposed interventions are reflection of the requirement of DDC to improve accessibility of people on goods and services and plan on current trend of financial resource availability. The study is only concerned within the district boundary, but due consideration is also given to the nearest road head and the inter district linkages as well. National Strategic Roads / Feeder Roads are not included in DTMP. However, their linkages with the local local roads network have been fully considered in its preparation. Upgrading of road linking district headquarters with national strategic road is major concern of Saptari district. Rational planning and proper implementation are two sides of coin. Negligence in one part will make other less effective. DDC is strongly recommended to improve the current practices of ad-hoc investment in roads on short term consideration. It is strongly recommended that every local institution, especially DDC shall strictly follow the approved DTMP, particularly in the Perspective Plan of District Road Network in deciding the subprojects to be undertaken for future development even beyond the planned 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 every fifth year, evaluating the outcome of previous planning and implementation. If the development potentials of the district change tremendiously, DDC should go ahead with adequate and necessary revisions/amendment in the prevailing DTMP.
