Grant Description
In 2011, the Chinese Government and the Moldovan Ministry of Internal Affairs signed an RMB 30 million grant agreement for the Road Traffic Monitoring Project.
The grant proceeds were drawn from three Economic and Technical Cooperation Agreements (ETCAs) that the Chinese Government and the Government of Moldova signed in previous years: a November 14, 2007 ETCA that committed RMB 15 million, a November 17, 2008 ETCA that committed RMB 20 million, and a September 14, 2009 ETCA that committed RMB 20 million.
The purpose of this project was to install video surveillance posts at 41 intersections and road segments in and near the city of Chisinau and construct a traffic monitoring center that relies upon Chinese technology. China Electronics Engineering Design Institute Co Ltd was the contractor responsible for project design.
It signed a project design contract with Moldova’s Ministry of Internal Affairs on May 25, 2011.
Then, between October 14-18, 2011, the Design Institute of Electronic Engineering of China and Moldova’s Ministry of Internal Affairs selected the 41 intersections and road segments where the project would install surveillance posts.
On September 27, 2012, Moldova’s Ministry of Internal Affairs signed a project implementation contract with Hebei Construction Group.
Moldova’s Ministry of Internal Affairs also signed a contract with Huawei Technologies Ltd. on February 27, 2013 for the construction of the traffic monitoring center. Huawei Technologies Ltd., in turn, issued a subcontract to a Moldovan firm called AlimConstruct Grup.
According to the Government of Moldova’s External Assistance Management Platform (PGAE), project implementation commenced on October 27, 2012. Surveillance post installation activities took place between May 2013 and the end of December 2013.
A project handover certificate was issued on June 30, 2014, and a formal project handover ceremony took place on October 24, 2014.
Since the start of use of the road traffic monitoring system, traffic accident rates in Chisinau have fallen by 40%, accident mortality rates have fallen by 60%, and vehicle accident damage rates have dropped by 45%.
Staff Comments
The Chinese project title is 交通监控中心项目. The Romanian project title is Sistemul Automatizat de Supraveghere a Controlului Traficului (SASCR) or Proiect pentru construcția SASCR Controlul traficulu or MONITORIZAREA TRAFICULUI RUTIER IN MOLDOVA. This project does not appear to be a duplicate of Project ID#66233, as the PGAE records two separate grant commitments for the Chisinau Road Surveillance System Installation Project (PGAE ID#idea_2686) and the Road Traffic Monitoring Project (PGAE ID#idea_3019). The PGAE records an EUR 3 million grant commitment for the Chisinau Road Surveillance System Installation Project and an EUR 3,754,914 grant commitment for the Road Traffic Monitoring Project. However, this issue merits further investigation because PGE ID#idea_3019 record also references a ‘FINANCING AGREEMENT BETWEEN RPC AND RM 2007-2008’.More detailed locational information can be found in Annex 3 of https://www.dropbox.com/s/osqsmr1wfdtxkcp/raport_12.doc?dl=0.
