1.4.2  Investment project underlying the present technical assistance operation  Phase I: Dolynska-Mykolaiv section  Phase II: Mykolaiv- Kolosivka section  1.4.3  Ukraine Railway Modernisation Project Implementation Timetable  Related programmes and other donor activities  Page 5 of 18 AA-000799-002 Terms of reference  The Consultant is required to liaise closely with the other Donors, in particular with the EBRD, in  order to maximize the value of their services and avoid duplication of efforts.  The promoter has separate TA, also NIP financed, to assist with the procurement of works and  supervision services. This is expected to complete its services by Q3 2021.  The Project is divided into two phases and there will be a separate procurement process for each  phase. Works relating to Phase I (Dolynska-Mykolaiv) are expected to commence in Q4 of 2021 and  be completed by the end of 2024. The implementation of Phase II is expected to begin in 2022 and  to be completed by the end of 2024. The specific works and supplies specified above may change during the implementation of the  Project, subject to agreement between the Banks and Ukraine, in accordance with the Finance  Contract. New signalling and communication system installation on both sections : to include: microprocessor systems of electrical interlocking for switches and signals at stations; microprocessor  systems of automatic blocking at station-to-station blocks; crossing automatic signalling including  automatic level crossing gates to be operated by duty officer at railway crossings; microprocessor  systems of centralized traffic control and dispatcher’s control providing data to ASK VP UZ-Ye  informational system at dispatching section; digital transport communication network on the basis of  fibre optic lines; train and station radio communication systems; modern equipment for operational  and technical communication system, double fleet loud speaking communication; modern equipment  for remote heat control of rolling stock axle boxes. Electrification works on both sections include supply and installation of catenary material,  construction of traction substations; improvement of the line power supply; installation of automatic  line block; implementation of electronic interlocking on stations including new cabling; laying of optical  fibre cable; protection of communication lines and of gas pipelines; construction of necessary  ancillary structures and other auxiliary works.  The project underlying this technical assistance is the Ukraine Railway Modernisation (the “Project”). The Project consists of the phased construction of the electrification of the railway line, over a total  length of 253 km, comprising the Dolynska – Mykolaiv section (Phase I, over a total length of 148  km, including new high voltage line with 2 substations) and the Mykolaiv – Kolosivka section (Phase  II, over a total length of 105 km), together with the modernisation of signalling and telecommunication  system in stations and on open lines.  The Project shall cover the following main investments:  c) New signalling and communication system installation.  b) construction of 1 overhead crossing instead of railway crossings; a) Electrification works, c) High voltage line connection works (including two sub-stations).  b) New signalling and communication system installation;  a) Track and electrification works, including construction of railroad track; rearrangement of  existing railroad tracks; reconstruction of track arrangement at 12 stations - extension of  several arrival and departure tracks; reconstruction of 14 crossings; reconstruction and  rearrangement of passenger platforms; laying of switches;
