Executive Summary
Sitganga Municipality is located in Argakhachi district, Province No. 1. It was established
merging the then seven VDCs viz. This Municipality was established by merging then
seven Village Development Committees (VDCs) i.e. Sitapur, Subarnakhal, Thada, Simalpani,
Siddhara, Jukena and Jaluke and currently divided into 14 wards.
Total area of this Municipality is 610.46 square kilometers with total population of 43,373
from some 9,201 households. As mentioned in the table, ward wise, Ward No. 11 holds the
largest area i.e. 117.82 sq. km. followed by Ward No. 10 and so on whereas Ward No. 4 holds
the smallest size of 18.53 sq. km.
The topography of this local boundary consists of several undulations having peaks, hills,
inner valleys, plain fertile lands with extensive forest cover. This municipality retains a
diverse climatic variations ranging from tropical to temperate climate and elevates
considerably up to the range of 1,600 m. The main economic activity of this Municipality is
agriculture and livestock, whereas people follow other chores as well for their sustenance.
This Municipality has no air transport service to complement the surface transport facilities.
Inner mobility and other development activities fully depend on expansion of road network
within the district. The Municipality has limited number of all-weather transport facilities
because most of the municipal roads are earthen in nature and requires lots of adventure
during the rainy season to shuttle from one place to another.
Sitganga Municipal inventory has identified 236 municipal roads with total length of 773.16
Km in which 752.89km (97.38%) fall under earthen category, 17.8 km (2.30%) gravel, and
0.24 km black top and 2.22 Km as new track. Likewise among four different classes, 6 roads
fall under Class “A”, 16 roads under Class “B”, 32 roads under Class “C” and 189 roads
under Class “D” where Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D constitutes 180.42km, 144.87
km, 166.16 km and 281.71 km respectively.
Likewise, 42 roads have been recommended as prioritized roads that include 6 from Class A
and 16 each from Class B, 15 from Class C and 5 from Class D. Based on investment plan, all
MTMP roads will be maintained over five year period. 332.36 Km MTMP roads will be
improved and prepared for gravel road standard including widening and maintaining
longitudinal and cross drainage system. This intervention ensures to bring into all-weather
road for maintainable stage. 3.15 Km new track will be opened and be brought into vehicle
pliable condition (full design width and side drain construction) during the MTMP period as
projected budget. Additional length could have chance of upgrading if additional fund is
available during this MTMP period. During the MTMP period, NPR 398.72 Million will be
invested for construction while NPR 170.88 Million on maintenance.

Chapter - 1: Introduction
1.1 Background
The Constitution of Nepal has envisioned Federal Democratic Republicanism as the essence
of its governance system. Rights of the local government have been enlisted on Annex -8 of
the constitution. Local Government Operation Act 2074 elaborates and specifies those rights
to be exercised by the local government. Article 11, Sub-Articles 2(G) and (K) specify the
rights of the local government to devise and implement policies and plans regarding roads,
transportation and other relevant development projects directly concerned with the local level.
As a local government, Sitganga Municipality had allocated fund, endorsed by the Village
Assembly, for the preparation of Municipal Transport Master Plan. Therefore, this report is
the product of an extensive field study and study of relevant documents, interactions with the
villagers, people representatives and stakeholders in the Municipality and ward levels for the
preparation of Municipal Transport Master Plan (MTMP).
Physical infrastructure development has been extremely sluggish esp. in rural level in Nepal
since long due to extended political turmoil and transition. Development of transportation
infrastructure is one of the most essential groundwork for opening other avenues of
development. Proper development of transportation system opens accessibility of the people
to larger markets, service centers and overall economic sectors. Development of roads also
leads to the development of urban centers with amenities like hospitals, schools, markets,
services etc. Roads establish significant linkages with the large neighboring cities with
vibrancy of economy, human activities and transactions. This sort of linkage is a key for the
development of rural areas. Therefore, development of transportation basically through the
development of road linkages is a fundamental necessity of this Municipality. It has
prioritized the development of sustainable Municipal Transport Master Plan which is expected
to address the need of opening an easy access to people's mobility in particular and inception
of avenues of all kinds of development in general.
Chiefly this MTMP aims to assess the present status of roads and transportation within the
Municipality through extensive field survey and inventorying the details of existing roads and
transport situation. The study has also unfolded the problems and genuine necessities on road
and transportation along with the recommendation of key interventions to be made for the
sustainable development of road and transportation network. Planning approach adopted by
the consultant is fundamentally bottom up and participatory. Study and analysis of existing
road status and need assessment have been the basis for this overall planning.
1
MTMP is a long-term visionary plan which aims to systematize the road and transport
development processes in the Municipality. It identifies the roads and creates a complete
inventory of the roads. It categorizes the roads into four classes A, B, C, and D according to
their importance. It prioritizes the interventions and allocates the estimated budget for the
necessary interventions. Above all, it systematizes the process of road and transportation
development according to the need of the Municipality. The consultant has followed all the
prevailing norms and standards for the planning. It is based on the Approach Manual prepared
by DOLIDAR and MTMP guidelines prepared by the then MoFALD. It has determined the
Municipal Road Core Network as practical in planning process of DTMP and has identified
the key linkages with other road network. A complete road network has been identified to
make a basis for future development of roads which primarily helps to develop the transport
access to all the settlements in the Municipality meeting the national standard of nominal
duration to reach the core road network or all weather roads.
1.2 Objective
The key objective of this project is to prepare Municipality Transport Master Plan which
would be a road map for the systematic development of road network and transportation in the
Municipality. Other specific objectives pertaining to the key objective are:
2
Collection of demands
O-D Survey
GIS work for the finalization of all sorts of maps
Preparation of Indicative Municipality Development Potential Map
Preparation of Municipality Road Inventory Map
Preparation of Base Map
Study of all relevant secondary data and information including previous MTMP
(If any)
Prepare field report
Road classification coding and nomenclature
Categorization of roads according to standard criteria
Collect feedback and necessary corrections from the stakeholders Prepare the final
report of MTMP
Recommend for the approval from the village Assembly for the implementation
1.4 Limitation
This transport master plan is limited within the territory of the Municipality. Since the data
collected for the planning were based on the information provided by the villagers in the ward
levels, they may have supplied limited information. Although Enumerators have attempted
their best to reach all the roads for the necessary data, there are chances of missing the data to
some extent. Misnaming of the road may occur due to the pronunciation error or hearing
problem by the respondent as well as enumerators. Chances of error may occur during data
entry and tabulation. The scale used to work on GIS is also likely to generate some errors.
Though such limitation and errors are obvious, attempts have been made to minimize such
errors taking precautions in the error prone areas.
3
Field survey and data collection were done to study the existing accessibility condition of the
villagers and analyze the necessary interventions to be made in the future. Demand survey
was done to assess the existing condition and future necessity of road extension and transport
infrastructure. Participatory bottom-up approach was ensured in the overall planning process.
Integrated Rural Accessibility Planning (IRAP) has been the foundational concept of overall
planning which emphasizes on improving the accessibility condition of all the settlements in
the Municipality.

1.5.7 Perspective Plan
Perspective plan covers the nature of the key interventions to be made upon the roads in the
future in accordance to their importance and necessity. This plan is based on the data
collected from the grassroots level. As a local government Municipality itself determines the
requirements and demands from the ward levels and necessary interventions are
recommended in accordance to the demands and necessity of the local people. Such required
interventions are based on criteria 'B' of the approach Manual. This perspective plan is
finalized after being approved by the Municipality.
• New construction
• Upgrading
• Rehabilitation
• Recurrent Maintenance
• Periodic Maintenance
The consultant has prioritized the above interventions on the basis of interaction with the
villagers and the necessity of the place and time. Availability of fund for the execution of the
projects have been analyzed and five years projected financial plan devised. Target for the
year and types of interventions have been finalized accordingly.
After that report will be submitted for the approval from the village assembly.

Chapter- 2: Review of Existing Infrastructure Situation
2.1 General Overview
Municipal and ward level surveys have revealed that the overall transport infrastructure,
primarily road network appears to be in fairly weak condition in this Sitganga Municipality.
Geographically Sitganga Municipality is the largest Municipality scattered in the area of
610.43 sq. km covering both hilly and plain areas. Despite being located in geographically
accessible region, this Municipality lags far behind in terms of road infrastructures chiefly due
to inferior road quality characterized by muddy and dusty features.
Gorusinge-Sandikharka Road (Feeder Road) is the life line road of this Municipality because
all major strategic roads traverse through this particular road covering majority of the wards
of this Municipality. Some of the strategic roads of this Municipality include: 1. Sitapur-
Subarnakhal-Mandre-Netapokhara Road (30 km); 2. Thada-Amrai-Jukena-Jaluke-Lamatal-
Bhalubang (48km); 3. Chakla-Borhakhar-Pakuri-Dhankhola Road (36km) and 4. Bhedamare-
Simalpani- Pawara Bikram-Jitpur Road (20 km)
Out of the above mentioned roads, the first road will connect up to the border of Palpa district
passing through Padini Municipality of Argakhachi district. This road also intersects the
Saljhandi- Dhorpatan road. Likewise the second road links remote quarters of this
Municipality and finally ends at Lamatal, quite close to Bhalubang bazar. The Bhalubang
serves as the neartest market point to the people of Lamatal and its nearby vicinity. Likewise
the Bhedamare road ends at Jitpur, one of the settlements of Kapilvastu district. This
particular road retains high potentiality to be developed as an alternate fast track to Terai from
this RM after upgrade of the same. Similarly, one of the agricultural roads passes through the
downhill of wards 1, 2, 3 and 13 with its alignment parallel to the Badganga River. This road
will also serve as the reliable source of construction material (gavel, boulder, and sand)
especially for wards 1,2,3,4, 12 and 13 of Sitganga Municipality. It is also important from
religious tourism point of view as this road connects to the holy premises of Bagra Baje where
hundreds of sacrifices take place every year and is believed to be the second largest
destination popular for animal sacrifices after Supa Deurali Temple in the whole district.
9
Most of the roads in this Municipality do not have basic road furniture and also lack basic
structural components like culverts, cross structures (cause ways), check dams, chutes, side
drains and the like so as to retain environment friendly physiognomies of the road. The slope
cutting of the roads are basically done through heavy equipment viz. dozers and excavators
without proper management of the slopes. No balance of cut and fill was observed in the
construction practices posing high risk of landslides and soil erosion in different road sections
of the municipal roads. Provision of check dams, chutes, bioengineering etc. play vital role for
mass balance which ultimately help complying with green road technology essential to be
introduced in the municipal level road construction measures. All of these facts indicate that
the overall development of road transportation is at the elementary stage in Sitganga
Municipality that requires proper interventions along with prioritized and meaningful
investment.
2.4 Industry
Industries based on locally available resources will lead to employment generation at one
hand and export based growth at the other hand. There is high potentiality of agriculture,
livestock and forestry based industries in this Municipality that include production to
10
processing related ventures. Likewise many foundation pillars in the name of temples and
shrines, lakes and water falls, along with natural scene sceneries are in place to develop
tourism as another lucrative industry. The development of good transport facilities, qualitative
accommodations including provision of homestay services (with basic facilities) will all
contribute in the rapid growth of this sector. Within tourism industry, this municipality could
be a trade mark in terms of religious tourism. The ward wise potentiality of industrial sector
other than tourism is as follow is as following
Geographically this Municipality is extended in 610.43 sq. km area where a huge chunk of the
land is sloped towards the south with sufficient cultivable land as well as plain Chure Bhavar
areas. The Chure region scales gradually from the south toward the north and culminates at
the range of 1500m of Mahabharat. Weak geology, excessive practice of terrace farming,
deforestation, haphazard collection of construction materials from the rivers and natural
quarries, forest fire etc. lead towards floods, landslides and other kinds of natural hazards.
ROAD COMPOSITION

11
The field survey indicates that a total of 773.74 km of road serves the entire population of this
Municipality in which the share of black top road is almost negligible. The share of gravel
road stands to be 2.27% followed by 95.73% earthen roads.The portion of new trail opening
in the total road portfolio remains 1.95%. The condition of gravel road is not satisfactory at
all. They have been primarily affected by poor water drainage. Similarly, the earthen roads
come under operations only during the fair weather and difficult to pass through due to deep
muddy reels, and excessive slippery.
The earthen roads pass through all of the wards of this Municipality but together. For the
purpose of MTMP, the entire roads of Sitganga Municipality have been classified into four
categories viz. Class ‘A’, Class ‘B’, Class ‘C’ and Class ‘D’. In total 187.6 km of the road
stretch falls under Class “A” as per the field survey while Class “B” holds 262.08 km; Class
“C” 125.76 km and the share of Class “D” road is 198.30 km in the total road length portfolio.
Class D Class A
26% 24%
Class C

Class “A” Road: Class “A” roads pass through all of the wards of Sitganga Municipality
except Ward. No. 9. Ward no. 10 holds the longest road stretch among Class “A” road i.e.
37.52 km followed by Ward. No. 14 (28.97 km) and so on. Ward. No. 2 holds the shortest
stretch of 5.59 km length among Class “A” road category. In total, 15.2 km gravel and 172.4
km earthen road constitutes the total portfolio of Class “A” road i.e. 187.6 km.
12
Class “B” Road: Class “B” roads pass through all of the wards of this Municipality. The
longest road span has been recorded in Ward No. 9 (35.12km) followed by Ward. No.
11(25.93) and so on. The shortest road length has been recorded in Ward No. 13 with 10.89
km road length within Class B category. In total, 15.2 km gravel and 172.4 km earthen road
constitutes the total portfolio of Class “A” road i.e. 187.6 km. The entire length of Class “B”
roads fall under earthen category.
Class “C” Road: Class “C” roads pass through all of the wards of this Municipality except
Ward No. 6 and 10. Ward no. 4 holds the longest stretch among Class “C” road with 16.09
km followed by Ward. No. 5 (12.64 km) and so on. Ward no. The shortest span has been
recorded in Ward no. 13 with a total of 4.00km road length. In total some 125.76 km has been
recorded as Class “C” roads in this Municipality out of which 1.63 km falls under gravel road
and 124.13 km under earthen category.
Class “D” Road: Class “D” roads pass through all of the wards of Sitganga Municipality.
The longest stretch has been recorded in Ward No. 6 (26.21km) followed by Ward No. 4
(25.43 km). The shortest of all in this category has been recorded in Ward. No 14 with 3.87
km road length. In the total road length of 198.3 km in this category, the share of black top
road, gravel road and earthen road are 0.25 km, 17.6km and 740.77 km respectively. Another
15.13 km has been recorded as new track construction.
2.6.1 Major Plans, Policies and Programs in terms of visionary city development
The Comprehensive Master Plan, in short, is a long term development vision, that will help
develop strategic guideline on the basis of which the Municipality could foresee its tentative
outlook by 2033. This CDP envisions the ultimate use of human capital as it is the only
13
resource that integrates the other resources like natural resources, capital resources and the
human resources itself and intends to reflect the concepts, target and the objective of Signage
Municipality. Like other Municipalities and Rural Municipalities of the country, this
Municipality is also backward in terms of development of physical infrastructure and has
given due priority in these aspects. The long term prosperity of this Municipality has been
linked in the foundation footings of modern and scientific agriculture and development as
well as promotion tourism destinations.
Policies and programs set for the fiscal-year 2075/076 have taken the agenda of upgrading the
existing roads that connect the Municipality Centre with all of its ward centers; connection of
Municipality Centre with strategic roads like National highway or Feeder roads. Similarly,
emphasis was also given for upgrade of those roads that connect ward centers with the
Municipality Centre. This Municipality is committed to join major settlements in its territory
with reliable road network within 5 years’ time and it intends to develop Signage into a smart
Municipality with quality infrastructures in the next 15 years. The Municipality has also made
a strategy to negotiate with the transport entrepreneurs to run public transport services from
its Centre to different wards connecting basic services like health posts, schools and market
centers. It is also in the process to develop a mechanism of rapid responses to release the
blockade in the main roads during rainy season so that those roads could be developed into
all-weather roads. Preparation of MTMP is also one of the key steps taken by the
Municipality to move ahead sustainably for the sake of road and transportation development.
The key objectives taken by the long term plans include:
Upgrade of all the major roads in the Municipality into safe and smooth all
weather roads
Increase an easy access of the Municipality in National Highway Network so that
access to large cities will be ensured
Install and maintain basic road furniture in the prioritized roads
Explore possibilities of mutual cooperation and partnership with private sectors in
order to ensure safe, economic and reliable transport services and overall
management of public transportation in an efficient manner
Conduct feasibility studies to check the viability of other modes of alternative
transportation like rope ways/cable cars, and air shuttle during emergencies
Establish a mechanism that ensures routine maintenance keep continued
Make transportation system easy, safe and smooth from all aspects
Opening of new tracks, construction of culverts and bridges etc. as per the need
14
The provision of Planning Norms and Standard 2015 developed by Urban Development and
Building Construction Department indicates that 90 per cent of households in the municipality
level should have reach over motor able road within access of 2 km periphery which stands at
1.99 while calculating in per 1000 population basis. Likewise, some 3.02 km stretch of road
has been recorded in the area of 1 sq. km. in this Municipality. Both of these statistics indicate
the compliance/fulfilment of the minimum thresh hold level. Despite this very fact, it’s pity
mentioning that the condition of most of the roads are quite pathetic and weak in terms of
service quality. The proper maintenance, upgrading and linkage of current roads to the
network of road are the only ways forward to attaining easy, secure and reliable road
transportation services in the long term plan of next 15 years while the short term plan needs
to focus on the completion of maximum no. of all-weather roads. Hence, the development of
Municipal Road Master Plan will be the key in order to prioritize, improvise and upgrade the
roads as per the MTMP guideline.

2.4.3 Market centers/village centers
People visit the following village centers/market centers to purchase normal
household commodities and they also travel up to Butwol, Bhairahawa or nearby
Indian border markets for especial or huge purchase. The following bazars
/market centers are normally visited for the local level purchase viz. Lahure
Bazar, Subarnakhal, Mandre, Halde, Sitapur, Kotdanda, Thada Daha Chetra
Bazar, Amrai Bazar, Chakla Bazar, Lahape Bazar, and Pattharkot Bazar.
Hindu festivals like Dashain, Tihar, Teej, Holi, Ram Nawami, Chaite Dashain, Nag
Panchami, Mata Tirtha Ausi, Kushe Aunshi, New Year, Maghe Sangranti etc are celebrated in
this Municipality whereas the scope of traditional institutions like Guthi and modern youth
clubs remain significant not only in terms of protecting and documenting their intangible
religious and cultural heritages but also in terms of maintaining religious harmony by
mutually exploring and marking different feasts and festivals in order to promote tourism
holistically. The local clubs from different wards can also promote homestay in their
respective areas keeping their unique identity in their food, lifestyle, costumes/attires etc. The
formation of cultural committees in their respective areas along with advertisement and
promotion of major touristic destinations of this particular Municipality are some of the
fundamental activities to be undertaken immediately.
The orientation to the local indigenous community about the inception of home stay facilities
in their respective communities, preparation of Master Tourism Plan for the development of
Sitganga Municipality, Marketing and promotion of major annual activities held in different
religious/cultural destinations within the Municipality through calendar publications, and
display of various jhakis during major national festivals are some of the fundamental activities
for tourism promotion in the municipality while ward wise specific tourism activities include:

Chapter - 3: Indicative Development Potential Map (IDPM)
3.1 Municipal Profile
Sitganga Municipality, geographically, is the largest Municipality located in Argakhachi
district of Province 5 which is spread in the area of 610.46 sq. km. This Municipality was
established by merging then seven Village Development Committees (VDCs) i.e. Sitapur,
Subarnakhal, Thada, Simalpani, Siddhara, Jukena and Jaluke. The formation of this
Municipality along with the new composition of wards, population and area has been shown
in the table below:

As mentioned in the table, wardwise, Ward No. 11 holds the largest area i.e. 117.82 sq. km.
followed by Ward No. 10 and so on whereas Ward No. 4 holds the smallest size of 18.53 sq. km.
20
3.2 Demographic Status
Likewise, population wise Ward No. 2 dominates all of the wards by some 3836 population
followed by Ward No. 4 (3617) and Ward No. 14 (3513) respectively while the least has been
recorded in Ward. No. 3 with a total of 2492 populace. The total population of this
Municipality has been recorded as 43373 where male to female ratio stands at 0.85.
The Population density per square kilometer is calculated as 71.04 and average house hold
size as 3.94 persons.
The pathetic state of physical infrastructure for e.g. weak road networks, unemployment,
dearth of social and other basic services, slow economic activities, etc. result into the meagre
growth of rate of population of Sitganga Municipality. However, lack of social awareness,
reluctance towards family planning, preference to male child etc. contribute to the growth of
population in this newly established Municipality at least up to some years in the near future
contributing to the negative growth in terms of population size. The population of this
Municipality was calculated as 44672 in the year 2001 and it appears to be 43373 in the year
2011 and again 42482 in the year 2018 following the negative average growth rate of -0.3%.
It has been projected to reach 40034 in 2038 (nearly after 20 years) as shown in the table
below.
The poor state of infrastructure for e.g. road, electricity, water supply, health, etc. along with
unemployment, poor quality of basic services health and education has equally led to the
negative growth rate of population in this Municipality. As a result the population of this
Municipality has decreased from 2011 to till date. Considering the same this trend of
population downfall from 2001 to 2018, the population decrease will follow the growth rate
of -0.3%. Thus the projected population after 15 years is expected to be 40633 in 2033 and
40034 in 2038 as shown in table below.
This trend of negative population growth rate is more vocal in many remote quarters of
Nepal at present. Road network development planning should be compatible with serving this
population and their mobility from settlements to several destinations. Integrated urban/or
settlement plans will be highly appropriate to minimize the cost of road construction which is
often necessary in the areas where population is too low.
21
3.2.1 Age wide Distribution of Population
According to national census 2011, the highest number of population lies between the age
group 10-14 with population of 6526 followed by age categories 5-9 and 0-4 respectively with
6015 and 5147 populations. These three age categories together constitute more than one third
of the entire population constitution of 43373. The age group of 70-74 constitutes the least
populations of 685 followed by above 75 category with 851 people.
Considering the economically most active populace i.e. within the age group of 15-59 years,
the total percentage of the population is calculated as 50.5%. Within the less economically
active populace, the percentage in the age group 0-14 category has been recorded as 40.7%
whereas 60 above category has been recorded as 8.677%. Secondly, the table below also
shows that number of less active population has remained significant in this RM which
indicates that the degree of mobility being higher in comparison to dependent or passive
population. This age wide data keeps high significance in road and transportation planning
like other planning.

3.2.2 Caste/Ethnicity
Out of the total population constitution of Signage Municipality, Magar dominates the others
in terms of caste with a total of 13932 populace (32%) followed by Hill Brahmin 9774 (23%)
and Chhetree 7571 (17%) respectively. Together Kami, Sarki and Damai/Dholi constitute the
entire Dalit populace which is recorded as 8673 (20%). Among these three Dalit communities,
Kami alone holds the majority over the two others by 55.5%. The other dominant caste in the
Municipality include Kumal, Gharti/Bhujel, Gurung, Newar and others as mentioned in the
figure below. Some typical caste people like Badi and Gaine also exist in this Municpality.
22
Ethnicity wide, in the total population constitution, the percentage of Mangolian community
has been recorded close to 40% against 60% of their Aryan counterparts. Ward no.
1,7,8,9,10,11,13 and 14 are purely dominated by Magar community while wards 2, 3, 4, and 5
are entirely dominated by Aryan people with huge presence of Hill- Brahmin, Chhetree and
Dalit populace. Ethnic composition also affects the mobility of people. Past history shows that
indigenous population have lesser mobility in comparison to other ethnic groups.

In the total population constitution of 43373, only some 2.7% of the entire population have
been reported to have sustained some kind of disability. Among the total disable populace,
some 42% sustain physical disability; 15% sustain blindness or low vision associated
disability, 13.5% sustain hearing impaired syndromes, 12% sustain speech related disability;
and 6% sustain mental related disability while the rest sustain combined of one or many
disabilities.

There are 104 Child Development Centers, 4 Higher Secondary Schools up to +2 level, 8
secondary level schools (up to class 10), and 96 basic schools(up to class 8). In total there are
only 6 institutional schools (boarding schools) as compared to 212 community ones. Out of
212 community educational setups 104 function as child development centers.
Several technical courses are being planned to be introduced in the local high schools of
Sitganga Municipality for e.g. Janaajagriti Higher School is planning to introduce
Agriculture,Veterinary and Computer courses and intends to develop itself into a technical
school. The remaining plans of promotion and upgrade is as follows:

Technical subjects like Agriculture, Forestry, Computer applications have been proposed in
some of the high schools a mentioned above. The government schools are also equipped with
the Library as well as E-Library in this Municipality but need to be upgraded and improved.
Improvement has been seen in rate of students’ enrollment especially girl child enrollment.
Despite all these, lack of competent and proficient teachers, poor quality of drinking water
and sanitation facilities, unsafe buildings, lack of sports and other educational support, lack of
female friendly toilets, poor condition (muddy/dusty) of the school roads are some of the
commonly observed problems in this Municipality.

Majority of the populace of this RM lack reliable piped water services and are forced to
consume drinking from other sources like tube wells, hand pumps, covered/uncovered wells
and rivers too. No further purification of such water is in practice posing high risk of arsenic
contamination among the water users in the Wards located in southern and western plain areas
of Terai. The water quality test should be made mandatory in case of community water supply
27
schemes. The Municipality need to focus upon other activities like rain water harvesting,
cleaning of sources of water, and extensive lab testing of drinking water from various wards
to minimize water borne diseases in the long run. Similarly, proper response mechanism
against snake bites shall be established in the existing health facilities. Provision of
ambulances, 24 hour health services, proper lab facilities including services of cold chain with
energy back up, sufficient no. of quality health professionals, efficient response mechanism in
emergency cases, proper water supply and sanitation services in the health centers and
provision of basic surgery kits and tools are some of the major shortcomings observed
particularly in the health sector. Awareness campaigns against various transmissible diseases,
and mobilizing the populace towards Yoga, Pranayama and other physical/mental exercises
will have positive implications in the long run and they should be promoted. Likewise,
promotion of indigenous Herbal or Ayurveda treatment, Homeopathic treatment etc. should
be given due emphasis so as to enhance health tourism in the long run.
3.3.3 Shelter
Ownership of housing units
Amongst 9201 HHs, 96.14% stay in their own private housing units while about 3% stay in
rental houses and the rest falls under institutional categories and others. The rental status is
more vocal in Thada/ the Municipality center where normally government and private office
staff, teachers, bankers, security personnel and some businessmen are found in rental status.

As shown in the table above, majority of the drinking water supply schemes have been
proposed in Wards 11, 12, and 13 while moderately few have been proposed in ward 2 and
14. The nominal number of water supply schemes have been proposed in rest of the wards.
Thus, smooth road transportation services will be vital one for the efficient supply of
construction materials that helps complete the projects on time.
3.3.5 Energy
Out of the total households in Sitganga Municipality, 97.85% rely on firewood for cooking
purpose. The remaining sources of cooking energy include dried dung cakes, LP-gas, Bio-
gas, kerosene and others among which the share of LP gas alone stands more than 1% of the
total sources followed by kerosene and baked dung cakes respectively. However, along the
development in the road services in the past few years, the users of LP gas are gradually
increasing and expected to increase further rapidly in near future.
Sources of light
Solar bulbs, electricity and kerosene have been recorded as the major sources of energy for
lighting bulbs in Sitganga Municipality where contribution of each of these three sources in
household level have been recorded as 27%, 28% and 29% respectively. Remaining 16% of
the households use other sources besides these. However, the contribution of solar and
electricity will be high in the future due to cost factors and ease factors too. The remaining
sources include bio gas, firewood and so.

The major activities in terms of energy/electricity has been mentioned in the table above
where most of the projects remain as extension of transmission lines and distribution of the
same up to the household level deprive of this services. However, ward no. 14 has some
unique projects of regarding installation of alternative energy. The transportation of turbines
and other necessary accessories demand good quality road services which cannot be
completed in timely basis amidst poor road situation.
3.3.6 Sanitation
Status of toilet/sanitation
As per census 2011, still some 4519 (49%) of the entire households of this Municipality lack
toilet facilities in their dwelling units. However, significant changes have occurred in terms of
hygiene and sanitation in recent years. Only some 22% of the total housing units have access
of water in their toilets. This is also referred to as flush toilets. Next 28% have ordinary toilets
without flushing provision as whom in the table below. Despite above facts and figures, the
situation have changed significantly (according to the recent field visit). The table below
shows the status of sanitation in detail.

territory of this Municipality. In the same way different lakes and ponds and closed water
bodies could be find in these wards that include Thada Daha, Damaru Daha, Nwar Pokhari,
Sana Daha, Shiva Daha, Lama Tal, etc which could be developed as tourism destinations in
future. Following are the streams and brooks in this Municipality

3.5 Traffic Volume Study
Generally, traffic volume study is done to establish a relative importance of any road. This
will help to decide the priority of improvement and expansion of road and to allocate fund
accordingly. This will also guide to make analysis of traffic pattern. Inventory of road traffic
physical features was done with the use of GPS. Also, manual vehicle counting method was
carried out as a part of traffic volume survey. By this method traffic volume as well as vehicle
classification was held properly.
Walking constitutes an important mode of transport in rural areas. Besides walking, most of
the people use cycle as another best options mainly due to less availability and costly public
vehicle but bicycles have not been taken into consideration for counting.

Accessibility
Vehicle ownership
Quality of local public transit
Purpose of travel, nature of work
Travel time, cost and distance
Motorcycle is used in nearly 60% of the trips and public vehicles in nearly 10% of the trips. 1
motorcycle is owned by every 75/80 people. This leaves the remaining 20/25 people (in every
100 people) without any vehicle. Without proper access to public vehicles, they are left out
with no option but to walk or opt for public facilities. Thus, nearly 75% of the trips are made
either on foot or via public transportation within the municipal wards.

3.10 Parking Space
Parking space is one of the major components of transport management. Unlike in urban areas
human activities and traffic intensity is not that congested in this Municipality. Therefore,
parking space has yet not been a serious problem so far. However systematic parking spaces
and bus bays will be necessary for future expansion zones.
Proposed area for bus parks and bus terminals and traffic units are as following:

3.12 Bridges/Culverts
Bridges, suspension bridges and culverts are most essential components of road and trail
transport. Any road is absolutely incomplete without bridges/cross drainages in the country
like Nepal where we encounter rivers and brooks in every few kilometers. However, as
compared to other hilly areas, the roads along this municipality passes through small streams
and rivers. Thus, instead of big bridges even small culverts and cause ways also work
substantially
45
cost of maintenance. Such unsustainable development leads to environmental destruction and
regular obstacles during vehicular movement. Almost all of the roads in the municipality
except the feeder road lack side drains. Therefore, construction and maintenance of drainage
is equally important as the construction and maintenance of roads.
46
Chapter - 4: Municipality Inventory Map of Road Network
Existing road inventory map has been prepared on the basis of ward wise road survey for the
verification of existing roads on GIS for the preparation of maps. Municipal road inventory
forms were used to collect the information during road condition survey. The survey was
carried out from one nodal point to another in each road collecting information on road type,
surface condition, road width, drainage structures, road condition, linkages established by the
road. On the basis of these information MRIM (Municipal Road Inventory Map) has been
prepared.

MTMP inventory survey has identified that this Municipality has altogether 773.16 Km
municipal roads including foot trails as active and passive transport network. The distribution
of road by surface type is 0.25 Km as black top, 17.8 Km as gravel, 752.89 Km as earthen and
2.22 Km stretch as a trail. Most of the roads fall under fair-weather road. The major challenge
in transportation sector is to upgrade of fair-weather roads and budgetary management to
cover all required intervention. Other relevant figures on road class and ward wise distribution
have been shown in the table.

Arterial roads in Municipality are taken as the links of National Highways. The technical
standards of these roads are taken from the DoR directives for Right of Way (RoW) and other
features.
Feeder Roads
81
Feeder roads are taken as the sub-arterial road in Municipality. The technical standards for
this category are taken as mentioned by the DoR road Standard. These roads have relatively
higher traffic with through movement of local vehicles.

Chapter - 5: Perspective Plan of Municipality Transport Network
Municipality Transport Perspective Plan is a visionary plan which aims to improve transport
linkages and accessibility to goods and services via different types of trip patterns. Feasibility
of air service in the municipality is almost no in use except emergency services through
helicopters. If we could find the assurance of fruitful investment return, ropeways are viable
in the municipality since hills and hillocks are favorable for ropeways in the future. Water-
transportation or navigations are impossible since there are no navigable rivers or waterways
in our adverse river profile. Feasibility of railways cannot be denied in this scope.
This means, road transportation is the most primary medium of transportation in the
municipality. Therefore, the municipality does not have any alternative except the
improvement of road network in a sustainable way. This chapter deals with the prioritization
of municipal roads for the necessary interventions to be made in the succeeding years to
improve the road network and enhance the accessibility condition of people's mobility.
According to Todd Litman, 2003 (Measuring Transportation: Traffic, mobility and
accessibility) the following factors determine the patterns of mobility of people from one
place to other.
1. Density (number of people or jobs per unit of land area) increases the proximity of
common destinations, and the number of people who use each mode, increasing
demand for walking, cycling and transit.
2. Land use mix (locating different types of activities close together, such as shops
and schools within or adjacent to residential neighborhoods) reduces the amount
of travel required to reach common activities.
3. Non-motorized conditions. The existence and quality of walking and cycling
facilities can have a major effect on accessibility, particularly for non-drivers.
4. Network connectivity (more roads or paths that connect one geographic area with
another) allows more direct travel.
There are many ways to measure transportation system performance, each reflecting
particular perspectives concerning who, what, where, how, when and why. Different methods
favor different types of transport users and modes, different land use patterns, and different
solutions to transport problems. Traffic flow is easiest to measure, but this approach only
considers a narrow range of transportation problems and solutions. Mobility is more difficult
to measure, since it requires tracking people’s travel behavior. It still considers physical
movement an end in itself, rather than a means to an end, but expands the range of problems
and solutions considered to include alternative modes such as transit, ridesharing, cycling and
83
walking. Accessibility is the most difficult to measure, because it requires much effort for
taking into account of land use, mobility and mobility substitutes, but most accurately reflects
the ultimate goal of transportation, and allows widest range of transport problems and
solutions to be considered. For example, an accessibility perspective may identify low-cost
solutions to transportation problems, such as improving local walkability; encouraging land
use mix so common destinations such as stores, schools and parks are located near residential
areas; and improving communications services for isolated people and communities (Litman
Todd, 2003).
5.1.1 Data Analysis and Field Verification of the Roads from Demand Form
Transport linkage in an urban area has greater importance for its overall development. The
development of road transport linkages to each plot of land or each residential unit is ideal
approach for transport planner. Various types of land use pattern require different category of
road transport linkage. The development of road linkage requires tremendous amount of
public fund at the same time; however, the public authorities doesn't have adequate amount of
funding. For better transportation infrastructure development, prioritization approach is only
one approach to be adopted for the rational allocation of limited funds for all types covering
the whole length. The investment activities are new construction, maintenance and
rehabilitation of various categories of road linkage. Conventionally, each construction or
maintenance projects are justified on the basis of cost-benefit ratio. This conventional
approach disregards the benefit due to non-monetary aspects of the transport projects.
Therefore, a multi-criteria approach for the selection of transport linkage is adopted as a
justified approach for the project selection.
84
Transportation services are highly demanded infrastructure for urban as well as rural areas.
The objective of the transport linkage is to provide accessibility for the given degree of
mobility. Accessibility and mobility requirements are guided by the people’s demand for
better living standard and economic opportunities. The objectives and importance of
individual roads should guide the development of scoring criteria for the project selection for
implementation. A term of Reference (ToR) for the preparation of MTMP has formulated the
criteria and their respective weights for the evaluation. Consultant has worked out the
following weights for the criteria for the prioritization of road links. These scores for the
particular criteria are needed to be discussed and approved by MRCC.
85
These criteria are described in brief below:
1. Population Served
Population served by the road link is one of the important indicators of prioritization. Higher
the population served by the road, higher will be its necessity or importance. Thus, such road
needs to be upgraded/maintained/constructed first. Scoring is done relatively. Highest score is
assigned for the road link serving highest population and is relatively reduced. Thus, the score
for road based on population served lies within zero to full score. The measuring score is
termed as Population per km road length.
2. Link providing service to existing market, tourist, commercial and business centres
This criterion decribes road linkage with existing market, tourist attraction, commerce and
and agro based cottage industries, market sites (local haat), and other obligatory centres
decided by Municipality discretely based on existence. Each facility is given 20% weightage
for this criterion.
3. Link providing service to high potential for agriculture, horticulture and livestock
production Service centers
It is one of the main governing prioritization indicators as it outlines the specific services
provided to the locals. The road link may provide access to high potential for agriculture,
horticulture and livestock production and service centres. A single road link can serve just a
single or more function. The proposed road interventions which serves all four facilities has
higher importance and given highest score. This facility is measured as annual transaction in
these centres (NPR/Km), is given 20% weightage.
5. Link providing service to the potential future development sites (Potential future
development sites)
Road is scored based on future development sites of town such as potential town
development, land pooling; potential industrial area and or forming ring road to municipality
etc. as indicated in the Indicative Development Potential Map of the municipality. The scoring
criteria is anticipated annual turnover (NPR/Km).
86
6. Potential growth service center
Serviceability of the road to the potential growth or service centers identified by the
municipality and shown in the Indicative Development Potential Map of the municipality,
Waste Management Site etc. Population served/Km can be taken as scoring unit.
Perspective plan identifies all the transport infrastructure demands of the Municipality. The
proposed road networks and road infrastructure will help to enhance the overall transportation
network of the Municipality which will eventually result in increased accessibility and
mobility. The visionary development plan i.e. the municipal development plan will help to
develop other sectors of the Municipality along with the development of transportation sector.
The well facilitated and well-connected road will facilitate safe, comfortable and efficient
trips to the road user. Moreover, increase in transportation facility will help to boost the
economic development of that particular Municipality which will eventually contribute to
overall economic development of the nation.
87
The first five-year financial plan is prepared based on the assumption that each year budget
will increase by 10% from previous year budget. All the roads included in perspective plan
along with their score, rank and class are given below:
The framework of the perspective plan of the municipal roads has been presented below
which has been categorized according to the scoring system mentioned before.

5.4.1 Conservation
Conservation refers to the actions required to repair a road and keep it in good and passable
condition. Conservation activities include:
3. Recurrent maintenance - Repairs of minor damage to the road surface and road
structures to bring them back to good condition. This is generally carried out once or
twice a year. Recurrent maintenance is required for the entire district road core network,
whereby distinction is made according to the surface type. The specific requirements for
recurrent maintenance are determined on an annual basis through the road condition
survey and defined in the ARMP.
4. Periodic maintenance - Larger repairs to the road largely aimed at renewing the road
surface through re-gravelling, resealing or overlays. It is generally carried out with
several years interval. Although periodic maintenance is only required for specific
sections of the district road core network, a lump sum allocation is made for the entire
district road core network based on average annual requirements, distinguishing
between different surface types. The specific periodic maintenance requirements are
determined on an annual basis through the annual road condition survey and defined in
the ARMP.
97
The length of roads to be included under each conservation type for the first year is indicated
below. This is basically the entire district road core network as far as it does not require
rehabilitation.
5.4.2 Improvement
Improvement refers to actions required to improve a road to bring it to a maintainable all-
weather standard. It includes the following actions, which are described briefly as following:
2. Gravelling - Placement of a gravel layer to make it all-weather and ensure that the road
remains passable during the rainy season.
4. Protective structures - Placement of retaining walls and lined side drains to avoid
excessive damage to the road during the rainy season and bring it to a maintainable
standard.
6. Widening - Increase of the road width in roads with traffic volumes exceeding 500
passenger car units (PCU) to ensure the proper flow of traffic.
98
remaining 70% shall be distributed. The MoFALD guidelines has set different view for
budget distribution in different class of road:
The estimate of budget required for the five years is prepared based on the assumption that the
Class A road is to be made full of side drain with required widening, Class B road is to be
made widening with side drain and Class C and few of Class D road is to be made single lane
and lane considered are assumed to be gravelled for considerable length. Due to limitation of
budget, the roads are assumed to have simple cross drainage structures within this period
whereas cross drainage structures such as Bridges are not included in this budget and
expected to be completed within this time period by external sources. For approximate
costing, the construction rate of road appurtenances is assumed to be equal to that of
gravelling cost and for short term the minimum width of 3m is assumed if existing road width
doesn’t exist. Similarly, longitudinal drainage on both side of roadway is not considered in
this plan.
MTMP mainly deals with Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class D roads but private owned
Roads are not given any consideration. Interventions on those roads need to be incorporated in
annual budget plan. As compared to the present budget of Municipality, the estimated budget
is more and the deficit amount should be managed from outer sources.
Intervention that needs can’t be completed in predetermined year; hence should be the next
priority in coming year. If a certain road which was targeted to complete in first year could
not be finished in first year, need to be given first priority in next year expenditure plan. If
there is deficit in annual expenditure, municipality needs to incorporate that particular heading
in next year at any cost. They can look for grant, assistance from province or even from
federal level or they can incorporate them by shifting budget from less importance
item/heading.
