A Sustainable Asset Valuation (SAVi) of the Uchkuduk-Kazakhstan Border Highway, Uzbekistan
This Sustainable Asset Valuation (SAVi) assessment is a comprehensive analysis of the costs and benefits of a proposed highway project in Uzbekistan, under the Sustainable Infrastructure Programme in Asia (SIPA) project.
In collaboration with the Ministry of Transport in Uzbekistan, we developed a Sustainable Asset Valuation (SAVi) assessment of a highway road in Uzbekistan. The assessment aimed to raise awareness on how to value the wider socio-economic and environmental outcomes of transport investment while demonstrating how such values can be integrated into a cost-benefit analysis. It is crucial that policy-makers design and implement processes that enable the recognition and accounting of these wider benefits, so decisions are made that drive sustainable transport investments to provide the greatest benefits to society and minimize environmental impacts.
