ECONOMICBENEFITS

Fuel Consumption: - Shortening of 227 km highway to

58 km tunnel road helps to reduce transport costs and

fuel consumption

Fare:- Shortening in distance results in reduction in

fare. Time Consumption:- KKHT road saves 5 hours of

precious time.As we know Time is Moneyitultimately helps in saving money.

Goods Mobility: - Being an agricultural country theremust be easy mobility of goods. This tunnel road will act

as a great boon in Nepal because of its easy mobility of

goods


15/23

ECONOMICBENEFITS(CONTD..)

Sustainable Development: -It will be of great benefitsin this present time and future. Trade, marketing andvarious economy boosting activities can be organized inthe valley by the people who are outside of the valleydue to easy access of transportation

Employment: - The construction will required largenumber of skilled and semi-skilled manpower. Localpeople will be directly benefited. Enhance links willprovide infinite opportunities

Efficiency: -Toll pricing allows for rational decisions onthe part of consumersthey can choose to avoidunnecessary trips and to time-shift trips to lesscongested times.


16/23


Building the Right Facilities: - Without proper price

signals, building expensive new urban roadways leads

to continually increasing congestion. With pricing,

however, the over-use of a facility is kept in check, and if

congestion rises, prices rise. Greater Safety: - According to studies(Peter Samuel,

2005), the accident rate on toll roadswhere the flow of

traffic is more is lower

Fairness: - Users pay for their use in proportion to their

use. Where congestion charges (or time-of-day pricing)

can be implemented, they pay for the cost they impose

on each other through congestion


17/23


Further development: -Additional income-generating

activities made possible by improved transportation or

lower-cost access
