Road Network Evaluations Tools (RONET)

The Road Network Evaluation Tools (RONET), developed under the Africa Transport Policy Program (SSATP) and the World Bank, is designed to assess the current characteristics of road networks and their future performance depending on different levels of interventions to the networks. RONET Version 2.00 implements three evaluation modules: (i) Current Condition Assessment Module that computes network statistics and monitoring indicators, (ii) Performance Assessment Module that estimates the network performance and budget requirements under different maintenance and rehabilitation standards, and (iii) Road User Revenues Module that evaluates revenues collected from road user charges and compares them with the funding requirements. RONET version 2.0 was released in January 2009 and is available in English, Spanish and Russian.
