The loan agreement for Road Network Development Project (RNDP), Loan No 1876 NEP (SF), was signed on the December 2002 between Kingdom of Nepal and Asian Development Bank. It had also been agreed that a part of RNDP is financed under grant assistance of United Kingdom through Department for International Development (DFID). The total cost of RNDP (excluding project appraisal done by ADB/Manila under Technical Assistance, project management of Project Directorate ADB of DoR, cost of resettlement/land acquisition and excluding other contingencies like escalation and interest) has been estimated to be 55.8 M US$, which is about 4.2 billion NRs.
