Therefore, it was felt that ‘the YOC shonld be updated for planning and appraisal purposes, The study was launched with the aim to work out the Vehicle Operating Costs of the conventional classes of motor vehicles on paved and un-paved’ roads under the conditions prevailing in the country. Only 6 types of vehicles i.e. Car, Hagon, Mini Bus, Bus, Medium Truck and Heavy Truck have been covered in the study. The YOC have been calculated by using two different methods i.e. theoretical as well as empirical. For theoretical _ calculation the conventional models RTIM2 developed by the TRRL, U.K. have been used. However, the equation to workout the fuel consumption for Suzuki (iv) | 1000 c.c. and 800 c.c. Cars has slightly been modified. Hhereas, to calculate the empirical YOC on paved as well as un-paved roads the results of the oxperimental studies "Vehicle Operating Costs” carried out by Me. Abdul MaJeod of NTRC in 1985 and "Road Freight Industry Survey" based on the road side interviews conducted in Pakistan by Hr. John L. Hine of TRRL in 1987 have been used. However, the empirical costs calculations are partly based on the assumption which have been used for the empirical data. Therefore, the espirical YO calculated in this report are not being reconnended for use in the palnning and appraising of proJects. According to the theoretical calculations the VOC rupees per Kiloneter on paved as well as un-paved roads are eatimated as under: Vehicle Class. Paved Un- paved Car Toyota 2.68 3.5L Car Suzuki 1000 co 1.73 2.30 Car Suzuki 800 co Lat 1.97 Wagon ~ Ford 2.31 2.70 Mini Bus - Mazda 2.68 3.47 Bus - Bedford 3.58 5. tedium Truck = Bedford 2.68 3.59 Heavy Truck - Nissan a 4.05 Ww) il A a ESS The study would be updated after every 6 months or whenever there is substantial costs variation in any inout. In this connection a Computer Programme has been developed to continuows monitoring and readily updating the YOC. The current operating costs would be available on the network Computer system. The compiled information will be updated bi-annually and supplied to all planning agencies and appraising organizations (vi) The rapid increase in the number of motor vehicles all over the world over the last fer decades has led to greater demand for more and better roads requiring more resources. This has brought into sharp focus the need for ‘proper appraisal of investments on construction and improvenents of roads ‘The investment in any development sector can only be justified by saving in Vehicle Operating Costs. Any investment in improving the surface, evaluation, curvature and reducing the distance based on the exclusive idea —to save the Vehicle Operating Costs. For such type of road planning, the road planners need information, not only on Vehicle Operating costs as such, but also ‘on variations ifVehicle Operating Costs in response to changes in road characteristics, such as surface smoothness, elevation, curvature, distance as well as climate. Bacause Vehicle Operating Coats are maintained, if any, by road users, according to main costs componenets, Like price of the vehicle and parts, fuel, -oil, labour, wages of crew, tyres ete. The Vehicle Operating Costs, which consist of three possible components; (a) the direct running costs which vary with kilometer run and sppeds and include items such as fuel, oil, lubricants tyres, maintenance and repair; (b) the indirect running costs, including vehicle depreciation and oren costs, which vary with vehicle working time and utilisation; (co) the fixed costs including overheads and interest charges. Differences in road conditions affect these categories in different ways. The rougher the road is the higher the direct vehicle running costs, as bad road conditions are associated with lover speed and increases crew hours and higher vehicle depreciation. Bad road conditions also affect the fixed costs per tone/kiloneter through prolonged journey time and consequently reduces vehicle utilisation. ‘The main components of Vehicle Operating Costs are listed below: = Fuel consumption = O41 consumption - Spare parts consumption = Haintenance labour hours - Tyre wear - Vehicle depreciation - Cron costs On the, other hand, the variables which influenced the Vehicle Operating Costs are: road characteristics, vehicle characteristics, environmental conditions and the volume and conposition of the traffic on the road. the information required to work out the Vehicle Operating Costa are as under: Road Characteristics Rise (m/kn) Fall (/km) Surface roughness (mm/km) Degree of curvature (o/km) Road width (meters) Surface moisture content (%) Rut depth (mm) Vehicle Characteristics Environmental free speed Vehicle weight Power to weight ratio (BIIP/tone) Vehicle age in kw Annual vehicle hours Vehicle age spectrum Vehicle price Tyre price Crew costs (per hour) Fuel price (per litre) 0i1 price (per Litre) Maintenance labour costs (per hour) Climatic condition Rain fall rate (nm) Temperature (degree centigrade) Volume and composition Number of vehicles on road Vehicle type In the costs and benefits analysis of the transport proJects, the reduction in Vehicle Operating Costs ‘is by far the most important and easily identifiable benefit especially in developing countries. It is generally large in these countries since the initial transport conditions , are normally very bad, and therefore very costly. Differnet types of road | have different. impacts on these costs, The reduction in operating costs benefits occur to normal as well Fas divert traffic that uses the facility under consideration. Normal F traffic usually gets the full benefits which are measured according to with and without criterion, 1.e. the differenze between costs before and after E the road improvement. As regards henefits to the diverted traffic, it is a E bit more complicated. If the diversion from one route to another of the / sano node, then the benefit will be the difference in operating costs F botueen the old route and the ney one. Bat when comparing two modes it 18 different. i As this report is concerned only with road Vehicle Operating [costs so the diverted benefits (difference in costs from one mode to another, {.e. road and rail) is not likely to be considered in depth. The jenphasis will, therefore, only be to ork out the, Vehicle Operating Costs ‘under the condition prevailing in the country. The four developing ‘countries namely Kenya, India, Brazil and the Caribean will be reviewed in P this report, who have used RTIH, RTIN2 and HDMI models to work out VOC. | The Vehicle Operating Costs will he worked out by using RTIM2 model and the results will be compared with empirical evidence in pakistan. Further details about the scope and coverage are discussed under the sub-headings “Backgroud’ and “Objectives” in this chapter. i 1.1 Background The users, operators and public agencies responsible for economic planning, development and control of transport services are all interested in Vehicle Operating costs. The interest of users as well as operators is in fact as old as the motor vehicle itself. The information is needed by various agencies for a variety of purposes. For example, the agencies concerned with planning and development of infrastructure and transport servies need the information for appraisal of road investment projects. The agencies concerned with construction and maintenance of roads need the information for design of raod and bridge structures and maintenance; the agencies concerned with operation of transport services, need the information for estimating Vehicle Operating Costs. In addition to these safety. The information related to estimating the Vehicle Opeating costs Iso provides an important input for transport models of various types and s of general interest to traffic enginners and transport economists. Yarious agencies and experts had done notable work in this field. 4a far ag developing countries are concerned, the major work has been done in four countries: Kenya, India, Brazil and the Caribbean. In these four major study regions they have used differnt models and formula to work out sa well as to compile the Vehicle Operating Costs according to their environment and climatic conditions. All these countries have considered different makes and characteristics of vehicles. The road characteristics, vehicle characteristics and other input inforration used in the above-mentioned four study regions vary. In these studies the models used for estimating the costs of each component are also different. It is true that the exact Vehicle Operating Costs cannot be predicted because of changes in road characteristics and prices of relevant items over the time span, In fact it is out of human reach to know what exactly would happen in the future. Similarly, it 1s impossible to predict the exact future Vehicle Operating “ost. But with a certain degree of acouracy, the future physical as well as financial costs can be predicted ‘—epending “upon relevant factors, but it is not a simple problem. Many factors correlate with each other and different factors influence in different ways in different areas of the world. The relationship beteen speed and Vehicle Operating costs is of particular improtance. Various cost components behave differently with change in speed. For example, the fuel consumption is high both at very low and high speeds and is lowest at optimum speeds. Other physical cost components like, off consumption, wear and tear of tyres, breakes, parts eté., increases with speed. On the other hand, time based costs, like interest, depreciation, wages, decrease vith increase in speed However, both physical and time based cost components vary with speed, therefore, the operating speeds provide an important input in estimating the Vehicle Operating costs. In the results of the above mentioned four major studies it seems that the theoratical estiamtes vary with experimental results which is also a debatable point. 4n ideal and standard model for Vehicle Operating costs’ shoud be transferable across countries and also over time within the given country, such models may locally be adopted by correcting the values of the necessary regional factors. The details about the models used in the for major studies will be discussed under the literature review in chapter-II. No attempt has so far been made in context with Pakistan to develop a model for estimating the Vehicle Operating Costs. Nevertheless in assessing the benefits of road project investments, its improtance cannot be ignored. However, the national Transport Research Centre, pakistan, has | calculated Vehicle Operating costs which are based on the experinental data. There is therefore, a need to either adopt a.model which has been used in one of the four above mentioned stadies or develop a suitable model for Pakistan. The main purpose of this report is to estimate the Vehicle Operating Costs by using an appropriate model and these estimation which whill be collected by conducting a small scale road’ side user’s survey.

Assessment of Vehicle Operating Costs. a Geographical and GLinatic Condition Pakisten is lying between the latitudes of 23 45 north end between the longitudes of 61 and 7 31 east. Pakistan stretches over 1600 kn north to south and about 885 km broad east to west covering a total area of 196,095 square km. tk comprises of four provinces: The Horth-Hest Frontier “Province (HEP), PunJab, Baluchistan and Sind, of these, Baluchistan is the largest province, with an area of 347,190 square kn, followed by Punjab , 205,344 square km, Sind, 140,914 square km, tho NHFE, 74,521 square km. The Federally Administered Tribal Area (FATA) covers 27,220 square kn and the Federal Capital (islanabad) area is 908 square kn. The Punjab ie the largest province in population. Whereas the Karachi is the most densely populated city, folloved by Lahore city of Punjab and 50 on, In addition to these the Azad Janu and Kashnir (AJK) is also the pact of Pakistan, which 4s in the north part of the country. -25- Pakistan is a land of diversified relief. In the north it is bonded by the Iimalayan ranges; the Karakoram range and the Hindukash beyond it. The Himalayas have an average elevation of 6100 motres with some of the highest peaks in the world. K-2, 8111 metres is the highet peak of the Karakoram range and second highest in the-world, Tirich Mir, 7736 motres is the highest peak of the Hindukash. Below the Rarakorams is the parallel range of the Himalayas extending far to the east and on the west, ending up at the Nonga Parbat peak, 6068 metres standing eighth in the world rating. Out of the total 796,095 square, km about 475,684 square km is in the north-west and weat from a highly differentiated mountainous terrain. ‘The remaining 320,211 square km is a flat and gradational surface. Pakistan comprises the following six major physical ‘diversions or regions: (1) northern mountains, (2) Hestern off-shoots of the Himalayans, (3) Baluchistan plateau, (4) potwar plateau and the salt range, (5) upper and lower Indus plains, (6) the Thar desert.

The rainfall in the plains varies from 12.7 em in upper Sind to 125 cm in tho Himalayen sub mountain area, while in the lee of these mountains, in the gilgit Agency and Baluchistan, it is hardly 16 om. It usually takes place during July to September due to its monsoon origin. In the hot keather, occasionally high rains follow the dust storms. Apart from above the water logg also influences the road deterioration but the exact information avout the water logg is not available. But it is generally known that in most of the plains area the water logg exists. | | -2T- 3.2 Volume and Composition The information about the volume and conposition of traffic on the raod is needed to determine the speed at which vehicles will move, Lf the road is congested the speeds slous down. In both conditions at very low and very high speed, the fue! consumption is high and is lovest at optimal speeds. The traffic volume is both very low or high, according to the road capacity and 1s affected by the vehicle speed, fuel consumption and subsequently the VOC. The composition of f ast and slow moving vehicles on the roads also influence the speed. the number of vehicles on roads or in the-country in 1989 stood at 1,895,500 of which 86,534 were trucks, 48,298 buses, 26,320 delivery vans, 33,609 taxis, 50,677 auto rickshaws, 237,966 tractors, 35,041 wagons, 27,745 Jeeps, 331,451 cars, 745,921 motor cycles’and scooters and 71,938 others. 3.3 Application of Hodele In order to develop the models to predict the VOU and the research efforts which are being made for the past fifteen years by the nunerous experts this can be divided into two categories, viz. aggregate- correlative approach and micro-mechanistic approach. These approaches are briefly described below, -28- 3.3.1 Aggregate-Correlative Approach Under this approach the models produced are expressed in simple algebraic forns. Aggregate-correlative models have been developed in the major studies conducted in Kenya, the Caribbean, India and Brazil. The Kenyan and the Caribbean studies conducted by TRRL, to predict and caloulate the VOCs, the Road Transport Investment Hodel (RTIH) have whereas for the Brazilian study the work was implemented by the Brazilian transport Planning Agency (GKIPOT) and by the taxes Research and Developnent Foundation (TRDE) ag the contractor of the Horld Bank, which served as the executing agency for UNDP. A separate computer model to predict speed and fuel consumption has been developed for the study. The Indian study waa carried out by the Central Raod Research Institute of India (CRRI) Jointa sponsored by World Bank and the Indien government. The flighway Design Model (HDM) has been used to predict the VOC. For this aprroach less data base from users ig required. In fact every model is supplemented by the following nodéls. The TRRL has now develped an advanced version of TRIN model named RTIH2. Similarly, the World Bank has improved their model HDM and named it HDMIII. | 9.9.2 More = Hochanistic Approach -29- Bs The aggregate algebraic functions are easy to use and locally / adaptable providing the values of the necessary regional factors. Under (this approach the poineering kenyan models have beén implemented in Road Investment Analysis Model (RIAN), the first voraion ‘of Road Transport “Investment Model (RTIM) and an early version of the Highway Design Hodel | (HDHD. The caribboan modols have been incorporated in the ‘latest version of the RTIM model (RTIN2), and the kenya, India and pone of the Brazilian models have been included in the new version of the MDM model (HDMIII) This approach has a genral tendency to depend less on a large data base of a single field study than the aggegate-correlative approach. In this approach comprehansive details of independent variables of each road section are required. This approach is particularly based on theory ) and has an inherent tendency to transfer in other conditions. This model © has less provision for empirical quantification than agaregate-correlative. In this model no provision’ for road surface roughness is the main variable |: which influences the vehicle speed and subsequently fuel consumption. Host of the models used in the major VOC studies are based on the aggregate-corre|taive approach. -30- Due to non-aviabiljty of details, road characteristics and sone other limtations our own equations cannot be checked from the above nentioned models, therefore, to estimate the VOCs the methodology will be to use the RTIM2 model. The equations for each component will be used on computers by given ranges of road characteristics. The average rise plus fall for paved road will be from 5 to 20 m/km, ‘average surface roughness from 2000 to 4000 mu/km (bump integrator) and the average degree of curvature will be from 50 to 200 /km. Whereas for unpaved roads the rise plus full will be from 6-20 m/km, average surface roughness from 6000-8000 mm/km (BI) and the average degree of curvature will be from 100 to 250 /km Most of the common vehicles which are operating in the country have been taken to work out the VOC. The detail characteristics may be seen in table-4. Pakistan ig assembling Suzuki-800 cc, and recently has started the assembly of Suzuki-1000 “cc. Therefore, Suzuki-800 cc has become the, nost common car in the country. However, it 1s rather small to be taken ag a typical car, the typical car is sone rhat larger. The Toyota Corolla ha also been considered in this analysis asa typical car with a 1300 cc engine.

Assuming that this due to the reason that in the theoretical equations no provision has been provided for the different makes of a vehicle class. Sinilarly in the vehicle cle cahracteristics and volume and estimation the road characteristics, composition of the vehicle’ on road of the region have been taken as an averages. Because the theoretical models have Leen used to predict the Vehicle Operating Costs at country level instead of a particular road section or a vehicle class and its make. It is also established from the results of the major studies discussed in chapter-2 that in the theoretical estimation the over heads are not included. Accordingly it may be assumed that the theoretical costs should be less than empirical. In order to check the differences in the theoretical anc the exper ingntal unit costs of each component as well as total Vehicle Operating Costs, in the Running chapter the theoretical as well as empirical ccsts have been calculated. 4 Theoretical Costs In the following section the theoretical unit costs have been derived by using the RTIM and RTIM2 models. The equations used to derive the costs of each component on paved and unpaved roads are as under. -34- Paved Ronds V 102,6-372R5 -0,076F L-0.111¢-0.00498 ~ (53.44499/V40,.0058V 741. 594 AS-0.B54UF) x1.08 Te = (~.060140.0000764R) x10 PC = (-5,50+0.002628) x10" avPxk Ut = (851-0.078R) xecaue oP = 0,2510.0787 Wagons Vo = 86.9-0,418RS-0,050FL-0,074C-0 0028" TF (7h.741151/140.0131V242.906RS-1.277FL) x1 .08 Te = (-8310.058R) xt07® Pc = (+5, 5040.00262R) x10~ UU = (851-0.078R) xpc/vP DP = 0,25+0.078Y " Buses Vos 72.5-0. 526RS+0 .067FL-0.066C-0 00420 F = (-1B.6+69: 2/6/9037 10.014 3V"4h, 262RS~1.834FL-2.4OPM) x11 Te = (8340,01128) .L, 10°?

The fuel consumption is a major component in the Vehicle Operating Costs which influence the vehicle speed. The model used to predict vohicle speed is a simple linear function of highway characteristics viz average rise plus fall, average degree of curvature and surface roughness. The results derived from the linear equations are reported in the table 6-7. 4.1.2 Ruel Consumption Fuel cost is the main component of Vehicle Operating Costs. The models ued to predict the fuel conumption took into consideration the speed, road characteristics i.e. gradient and in some models, roughness, but not curvature except where curvature affects speed, The model applied for fuel consumption related directly to the vehicle speed and highway characteristics. It is evident that at constant speed, other than steep grades, the relationship between fuel consumption and vehicle speed is U- shaped. the fuel consumption models shotin below have this U-shaped form. Fuel consumption being minimum when vehicle speed is equal to (b/2c) 1/3 (assuming b, © positive). -38- vehicle weight (tonnes) using user survey fuel consumption data and adds Prodictions to be made for heavy goods vehicles and buses. To incorporate Gthis adjustment add (-154+69.2 (GYH ) to the mediue truck fuél consumption Fequations. To convert the fuel consumption predictions use the equations “nentioned above to predict’ fuel consumption under normal operating F conditions. The equations are mentioned after converting coefficients on It is also mentioned here that during the analysis it has been observed that to workout the fuel consumption for different type of cars, no provision is available in the equations of pre model. Therefore the ‘equation has sliglitly been modified to yorkout the fuel conauaption by [using a correction factor. This correction, factor is based on the empirical +020 and -0.033 respectively, These factors have been incorporated in the original equation used for Toyota 1300 ¢.c. car, q The predict fuel consumption at difi-rent speeds and road characteristics are reported in the table 6 & 7. n Table-6 175 Fuel _Consuaption raved Re Average rise and!

Lubricants include, engine ofl, other oil and grease, In these three lubricant items, engine oil is the most important, one in the VOC. No equation has been reported in neither RTIN2 nor the HDMILI models. The results derived from the user survey data in the Kenyan and Carribean at different conditions of roads are assumed to be the same for Pakistan. The details of oil consunption, litre per 1000 km, are estimated in table 8. Table-8 Engine O11 Consumpticn Litre Per 1000 Kn.

ALA sumptioy Tyre costs are also an important component of Vehicle Operating Costs, particularly for heavy vehicles and in deveoping countries. Tyre wear is mainly related to road characteristics. It is evidnet that in developed countries the expected tyre life is more than 1000,000 km. On the other hand in the developing countries it is hardly half on paved roads costs increase linearity with highway characterisites, The dependent variable for tyre cost equation is T which is equivalent to new tyres per kilometer vehicle defined as T = TCV. The tyre consumption predictions for various type of yehicle on paved and un-paved roads are reported in table 9. 4.1.5 Waintenance Parts Costs The maintenance parts costs are directly related to the road characteristics, vehicle age and driver’s behaviour, The maintenance costs also influence the way of utilisation of the vehicle. For example, control of speed, loads and preventive maintenance of the vehicle. The maintenance parts costs have been estimated as the percentage of now vehicle prices. The vehicle age also affects the maintenance costs, because the maintenance parts costs of an old vehicle is relatively higher than for a new one. ~47= Table-9 Tyre Costs Per Kilometer Against 5 ce Roughness, !

Under the Ol nethod the depreciation costs work out with the relationship of hours driven per year and derivation of a vehicle age invarsant annual utilisation. Whoreas, the YA mothod is the relationship of value and age of the vehicle. For this report the VA method has been used to estimate the depreciation costs Tho ages of all vehicles have been taken from the date of first registration details may be seen in table 12. The vehicle depreciation is algo influenced by the driver behaviour and road conditions. The results of depreciation oss which have been derived by multiplying the depreciation percentage with the new vehicle prize and divided by the vehicle age in 1000 km, have been reported in table 13.

Highway Safety Survey and Fuel Consumption study will be taken as enpirical evidence. The brief introduction has already been reported in chapter-3, The results of the study in terms of quantity have been taken to calculate the empirical Voc. Another tudy ‘Road Freight Industry Survey’ carried out by Nr. John L. Hine, Consultant of Transport and Road Research Laboratory (TRRL). In this report Mr. Hine has estimated the operating costs of the report are based on field surveys and road side interviews of teh drivers and operating costs of goods vehicles. In addition to the above evidences a small scale survey has also been carried out to calculate the empirical operating costs of the vehicles which are not included in the above mentioned two studies. For this survey a simple questionnaire was designed to collect the requisit information from the drivers/operators. The specimen questionnaire is placed at Appendix A (1) The empirical’ unit costs in terms of quantity derived from the above mentioned evidences have been susmarised in table-15 | -53- Table-15 Vehicle Type f 0 1 P L D Car Toyota 0.007 0.00144 6.0000240 9000025 9,082 0000660 Survki 800 O.0bL 6.00144 6,0000163 9,000073 9.002 0000360 Wagon 0.167 0.00205 0,0000305 0.000937 0.0040 0.000947 Hint Bas 0.100 0.00215 0,0000240 0.000061 0.0179 0,002600 Bus 0216 0.00850 0.0000770 - 9.00a07e 0.019% 0.000240 Hediun Truck 0.278 0.00852° 00000770 0,000 0.0189 9,000260 Heavy Track 0.405 0.00702 0,0001430 0.000087 6.0474 9.000260 Vehicle Type Car Toyota 9.109 0.00164 0,0000940 0.000275 0, 00499 0.00066 Suzuki 800 0.075 9.0014 0.0900835 0.000276 09,0049 0.00036 Magon 0.179 0.00205 0,0001%12 9,0095800,00768 0.00035 hhini Bus 0.138 0.00216 0,0001120 0.000205 9.01950 0.00026 Bus 0.270 0.00552 9,0001080 0.000268, 0.02414 0.00024 Nedive Truck 0,333 0.00553 0.90010900,000275 0.02409 9.00026 o.oo7ee a.o0ne@e 0.000187 0.08093 0, 00026 Heavy Truck nits: Speed fash PeParts Cast 1 VP/ie Fool H1t/kn Le Labour fost Labour tour km Oi Lite = Depreciation X of YP/ka Te Tyre Cost ¥ of new tyre/te 43 Financial Costs Calculations The unit costs of each component has been multiplied with the prices of July, 1991, The details are shown in Annex-A{2), The basis of price calculations of the necesary components are briefly mentioned in the following paragraphs. Two types of tyres are available in Pakistan, one is locally manufactured by the Genera! Tyre Company and the other is imported. Market “prices of imported and locally manufactured tyres do not vary widely. General Tyre Company estimated that the total market for tyres for four or more wheel vehicles in Pakistan is about 1.2 million units. According to 1987 statistics, the General Tyre Company have about 50% of the market. (700,000 units): The import duty on tyres is 100% other surcharges and sales tax. The retail prices are obtained from the local market. 4.3.2 Labour Charges, Tlie average maintenance labcur charges in Pakistan are obtained from “Survey of Mechanised Road Transport’ in which they have reported Jabour maintenance charges for different categories of vehicles for each provincial headquarter. In this survey the data were collected fer annual employment costs of motor mechanics. fs the results.reported are of 1981~ 2, therefore, the inflation rate, i.e. 10%, has been used to estimated the maintenance labour charges. The costs of the crew of a bus, truck or car, is part of the economic and financial operating costs of the vehicle. For buses the calculation is based on one driver and a conductor. Wages for a driver are in a range round about Rs.1500 per nonth and for conductors Rs. 1000 per month which is taken as a aedian. In addition drivers and conductors recieve a commission of 10% on the fare of each passenger. Fares for ordinary stage carriage services are based on Rs.0.01. For large and mini buses the averaye dccupancy is 40 and average annual utilisation is 55,000 km. Therefore, the crew commission is on the average 40 x 0.10 x 55,000 « 833. This 10%.commission is equally divided between 10/1000 2 000/12. the driver and the conductor. Therefore, the total monthly costs of a bus crew are estimated at Rs.4333. For trucks the calculation is based on to drivers and a cleaner, responsible for the cleaning of the windscreen, to check the air in tyres, re-filling: the radiator etc. Since this is by far the most common arrangement on long distance travel average wages for a driver are in the range of about Rs.1500 and Rs.1000 for cleaners per month. In addition drivers and cleaners receive an extra daily allowance for food etc. which is about Rs.15 for drivers and Re.10 for cleaners. Therefore, the total monthly cost of a truck crew is estimated at Ra.5200 including allowance for food. For Cars, the crew cost is calculated only for a driver and is Rs.1500 per month. The wages for car drivers are relatively higher than others because no extra allowance is admissible to them Assuming eight working hours per day for all categories of crew, finally the crew cost is calculated as mentioned in the price list. The annual wage rate has been divided by annual kilometerage for per km crew costs, 4.3.4 Interest Costs The interest costs per km have been derived by assuming an interest rate of 12% per year on the capital costs (equivalent to the new vehicle price). The interest costs have been estimated on the basis of Vehicle driven hours, The interest cost have been auided in the total financial Yehicle Operating Costs in table-16.

Comparison Theoretical Verses Empirical Operating Costs The principal aim of this chapter is to outline the differences in theoretical and empirical unit cos: of each component as well as total Vehicle Operating Costs. The theoretical operating costs is based on RTIN and RTIH2 models whereas enpirical costs is based on the field survey's data conducted by the NIRC. The reports considered to derive the empirical costs are ‘described in sections 2,2 4 4.2. The assumption made are also reported in Chapter~3. The theoretical as well as empirical operating costs rupees per kilometer as reported in tabe 16 and 17 are summarised in table 18 and 19, It is evident from the result that the theoretical costs vary with ehpirical operating costs. For the purpose of comparison only matching vehicle classes have been taken and the suzuki car 1000 CC has not been incorporated in the comparison. The toyota car, bus and wagon have been taken from the report “Vehicle Operating Costs; carried out by Hr. Abdul Majeed of NIRC and the medium and heavy truck have been extracted from the report "Road Freight Industries Survey" conducted in Pakistan by Hr. John L. Hine of TRRL. The problen in the comparison of financial Vehicle Operating Costs was that the prices used in the NIRC report of 1985 and in the TRRL report are of 1986, whereas in the current report the prices of duly, 1991 have been used i.e. after the announcement of finanical budget 1991-1992. To over-come this problem, only unit costs in terms of quantity
