Narrative Description of Project:

ADB, in collaboration with the Municipality of Tashkent (a city of 3.7 million) and the Ministry of Transport, is supporting the developments of enhanced e-bus operations, which is the first output of the Tashkent Green Mobility Project. This assignment aims to develop a practical and context-specific roadmap for fleet electrification and e-bus depot development, addressing technical, operational, and financial dimensions, to enable a cost-effective and sustainable transition to electric public transport. It will also identify and design pilot “green” corridors to demonstrate the feasibility of enhanced e-bus operations and promote a sustainable urban transport system.

Description of Actual Services Provided by Our Staff within the Assignment:

TASK 3 (GREEN CORRIDOR PRELIMINARY DESIGN): Out input shall be primarily in this out of the project. The detailed scope shall include the following sub tasks.
  • Task 3.1: Corridor Selection and Initial Data Collection: Identification of 2–3 potential high-profile streets/avenues with sufficient capacity to accommodate proposed e-bus fleet under this project. The streets/avenues to either include or connect areas of cultural significance & exhibit high commercial activity, heavy pedestrian movement, & strong public transport demand. Based on criteria, we shall define a set of pilot bus routes and corridors (up to 5) to serve as Green Mobility Corridors, preferably aligned with existing major bus routes.
  • Task 3.2: Engineering and Site Surveys: After finalization of corridors, we will conduct comprehensive engineering & site surveys along their entire length including:
    • Hydrological secondary data collection
    • Cadastral Data
    • Visual Survey & Review of Utility Location Drawings
    • Traffic Counts, Road geometry, signal timing, & operational data
    • Parking inventory, safety audit, and sidewalk condition assessment
  • Task 3.3: Preliminary Design of the Pilot Green Mobility Corridors: Based on survey results & stakeholder inputs, we will prepare a façade-to-façade preliminary engineering design for the selected corridors. The design shall ensure universal accessibility, safety, and comfort for all users—pedestrians, cyclists, public transport passengers, motorists, women, children, and persons with disabilities.
  • Deliverables: Deliverable to include
    • Preliminary Engineering Design Report
    • Corridor layout and cross-sections
    • Junction and bus stop design
    • Streetscape and material specifications
    • 3D renderings and video for key corridor sections and components
    • Cost estimates
