1 Background With the development of Harbin city, the number of motor vehicles increase rapidly. Meanwhile, the urban transport issues, with the most typical characteristics as urban congestion, become prominent gradually which need to resolve in an immediate way. Based on the spirit of “The Thirteenth Five-Year Economic and Social Development Plan of Harbin City”, and considering the actual requirements of traffic development, Harbin municipal government established a development strategic with the priority to public transport, and proposed to build a smart public transport system which can enhance the development of regional economy, society, urban environment, and urban development through the construction sustainable transportation. Accordingly, the Harbin municipal government intends to loan from World Bank, to carry out Harbin Cold Weather Smart Public Transportation System Project (hereinafter called the Project or HCWSPTSP). The overall goal of this project is taking the scientific development concept as the guiding ideology, facing the extremely cold weather in the city, by developing people-oriented, transit-oriented, efficient and safe, low-carbon environmental protection, sustainable economic and convenient public transportation system, with the features of low energy consumption, low pollution, low land occupation, low travel costs and low financial burden, actively responding to the urban transportation problems caused by the extremely cold weather, urbanization, and motorization superimposing, and promoting the sustainable development of urban transport, which may also provide metropolitan public transportation development in extremely cold regions with available successful practices and case that can be implemented, learned from, and can promoted. And finally, it would provide an important transportation security for the realization of economic revitalization of Heilongjiang Province. The total investment of the project is 1,171.96 million Yuan as per the latest approved preliminary design in November 2018 (Harbin DRC approval [2018] 85), of which 100 million USD (equivalent to 610 million yuan, the exchange rate 1:6.1000) will be
loaned from World Bank and 561.96 million yuan is solved by the local government’s counterpart funding from local financial. Projects involving Harbin Development and Reform Commission, the Municipal Finance Bureau, the Municipal Housing and Urban Construction Bureau, the Municipal Transportation Bureau, the Municipal Public Transport Authority, Urban Construction Investment Group Co., Ltd., City Water Supply and Drainage Group and other relevant units. The project has 5 sub-projects: 1) bus priority corridor construction project; 2) public transportation infrastructure construction project; 3) traffic management and safety construction project; 4) road maintenance and emergency response construction project; 5) institutional capacity building project.

On October 14, 2015, the Harbin Municipal People's Government held a special meeting ("Harbin
Municipal People's Government Special Meeting Minutes 2015 No. 123"). The meeting decided to adjust the construction of the bus priority corridor. It’s important for easing traffic pressure in the city center, promoting energy conservation, convenient for people to travel. Bus priority corridor subproject originally planned to locate proposed three corridors on the Youyi Road, Hongqi Street, and Xinyang Road. As the project goes, there is a conflict between the project original plan two bus priority corridor, Hongqi Street and Youyi Road, and Metro Line 3 and city utility tunnel construction project in terms of construction schedule and space. The implementation of those projects simultaneously is difficult, so the Harbin municipal government sets forth the alteration for original program by taking urban strategic planning, urban construction, industrial layout, the actual resident trip into consideration. The contents of this mid-term adjustment is mainly includes: On October 14, 2015, Harbin Municipal People's Government held a special meeting ("Harbin Municipal People's Government, 2015 Special Meeting Minutes No. 123"), The meeting decided to adjust the content of the bus priority corridor construction project, the Xinyang bus priority corridors was extending to Haining Leather City from Xiangzheng Street - Jincheng Street sections, the design for the whole line was adjusted to Road Side Bus lane; At the same time, cancel the construction of Youyi Road and Hongqi Street Bus Priority Corridor and adjust to the Nanzhi Road (Dongzhi Road – Gongbin Road) and Changjiang Road (Nanzhi Road - Huacheng City) bus priority corridors. After the meeting, the adjustment plan has been submitted to the World Bank, and the World Bank experts conducted site visits to the two adjusted corridors of Nanzhi Road and Changjaing Road. After investigation, WB experts suggested to adjust the starting and ending points of Nanzhi Road and Changjiang Road to seamlessly with the subway, forming a fast passenger transport network. The proposal was recognized by Harbin Municipal Government. Both sides (WB and Harbin Municipal Government) agreed to adjust the starting and ending of two corridors to Nanzhi road (Huashu Street and Gongbin Road) and Changjaing road(Hongqi Street
and Xilong Street). In 2016, due to the approval of the Nanzhi Road and Xinyang Road Viaduct Construction project by the municipal government, it has a major impact on the design and construction of the bus priority corridors in the World Bank project. The design institution redesigned the traffic engineering of the above three corridors in combination with the design of East Second Ring Viaduct Improvement Project and the Urban and Rural Road Viaduct Project. After the redesign, the bus priority corridor construction project includes: Xinyang Road Bus Priority Corridor (Xiangzheng Street - Haining Leather City) 6.06 km, Nanzhi Road Bus Priority Corridor (Yeshu Street - Gongbin Road) 6.27 km, Changjiang Road Bus Priority Corridor (Hongqi Street - Xiaolong Street) 5.39 kilometers. The main construction contents include traffic engineering, road engineering, greening engineering and other ancillary works of the bus corridors. The total length of three corridors is 17.72 kilometers. For the better implementation of the Harbin Cold Weather Smart Public Transportation Project Loaned by World Bank, Harbin Municipal Government set up the project construction leading group, constituted by the main leaders of the Harbin Municipal Development and Reform Commission (HMDRC), Harbin Municipal Construction Committee, Harbin Municipal Transportation Bureau(HMTB), the Municipal Finance Bureau, the Municipal Planning Bureau, the Municipal Land Administration Bureau, the Municipal Urban Management Bureau, the Municipal Public Security Traffic Management Bureau, the Municipal Transportation Group, and Harbin Urban Construction Investment Group co., LTD, The Institutional structure of the project is showed in Figure 1-2.

The construction of the project aims to comprehensively improve the overall level of bus services within the corridor. The three corridors are surrounded by Harbin's comprehensive, transportation, administrative, scientific and technological, commercial, residential, industrial and other places, occupying an important position. The project will not only receive the most direct positive impact on the areas along the project, but also because of the bus lines and tracks. The combination of transportation and the relief of the congestion pressure exerted by the project on Harbin's traffic have covered the entire area of Harbin. Most directly beneficial area due to project adjustment:
(1) Area along the bus priority area: Xinyang Road corridor is the main trunk that connects Harbin airport and Harbin main business districts. With the construction of Metro Line 3, the cross of Xinyang Road-Lijiang Road can connect with Metro Line 3, which can relief the peak period traffic congestion caused by the development of Qunli District. Nanzhi Road corridor across three districts Harbin City, has an important commute function, the corridor covers many commercial, residential and office zones, functioning as a commercial and leisure services, and have large traffic flow.

3.1 Project social impact 3.1.1 Project social impact overview The three corridors of the bus priority corridor sub-project are the gathering places of Harbin comprehensive, transportation, administration, science and technology, commerce, residence, industry, etc. From the functions, positioning and traffic conditions of the three bus priority corridors, it can be seen that these three beneficiaries of the construction of the corridor cover all residents who are likely to take these buses. The residents directly affected by the project include not only the resident population of the urban area in Harbin, but also the suburbs and surrounding counties and cities. And migrants such as tourists, and all citizens who are likely to travel by public transport. According to the survey results, public transportation is the main mode of travel for Harbin citizens, so the project will have the following positive social impact on the benefit of Harbin citizens. 1) will greatly ease the traffic pressure and congestion in Harbin and reduce the travel time of residents. 2) It will facilitate the convenient transfer of residents between the bus and the track, and improve the convenience of the bus. 3) In order to enable more residents to choose the green way of taking the bus when they travel, the air pollution in Harbin will be greatly improved, which will greatly improve the health of the residents;4) The direct impact of the project on employment: During the project construction phase, certain technical personnel and temporary workers need to be employed to provide a large number of employment opportunities for the local people. According to the investment and employment experience coefficient of the highway and transportation industry, it can be calculated that all the contents of the project can create 14220 jobs during the construction period. 5) The indirect impact of the project on employment: After the implementation of the project, the transportation conditions in and around Harbin were improved, and the development of related industries was promoted, thus driving the improvement of local employment conditions.6) Enhancing the city image of Harbin and improving the urban ecology and have positive effects on human environment.
However, during the construction of the project, the project will inevitably have some negative impacts. The residents along the bus priority corridor will be subject to different levels of construction interference, especially the dust, noise and night construction caused by the construction. Risks such as impacts, solid waste, and traffic management risks such as increased traffic block frequency and increased traffic accident rates will also occur. 3.2 Project beneficiary The population directly and indirectly affected by the project includes all Harbin citizens. At the end of 2016, the population of Harbin City was 9.621 million, including 5.51 million in urban areas and 4.11 million in counties (cities) under the jurisdiction of the city. The city has a total of 132 sub-district offices, 897 community neighborhood committees, 112 town governments, 60 township governments, and 1887 village committees. Harbin City is divided into Daoli District, Daowai District, Nangang District, Xiangfang District, Pingfang District, Songbei District, Hulan District, Acheng District, and Shuangcheng District. In 2016, there are 132 sub-district offices in 9 main urban areas, 780 Community neighborhood committees, 41 town governments, 13 township governments, and 732 village committees. 3.2.1 Vulnerable Groups Because the vulnerable groups have higher sensitivity to the positive and negative effects of the project, this sub-project pays special attention to the appeals of vulnerable groups affected by the project and the possible impact of the project. In the process of road reconstruction, the public transportation sub-project of the intelligent public transportation system of the alpine city of Harbin has planned the road transportation facilities especially needed for the vulnerable groups such as the comprehensive reconstruction of the intersection, the pedestrian crossing or the overpass, and fully considered the elderly and the actual needs of groups such as disabled people and children. In the sub-projects of the Bus Priority Corridor, these groups will be equally and positively affected as described above, as well as other residents. These groups
include: 3.2.1.1 Women and children group Women (including children) are often viewed as vulnerable groups. They are highly sensitive to the environment and their rights are vulnerable. It is necessary to understand the basic situation of women and children and to identify the impact of the project on women and children, so as to take it at the initial stage of the project. Corresponding measures to minimize or avoid affecting women and children. Based on the investigation, the female has the legal rights as same as the male within this project, including receive education, employment and participate election, etc. Majority women who interviewed argue that they have the same autonomy in management like men. In the proposed project region, the female condition is shown below: In 2016, the proportion of women in Harbin was 49.7%, and the ratio of male to female was 101:100. Women are the main force in public transportation. The development of urban public transportation is also conducive to improving women's work and living conditions, thereby promoting the economic development of Harbin and the quality of life of citizens.

According to incomplete statistics, it has 40 ethnic minorities in Harbin urban area, and the population of minority is about 200,000. There is 1 Manchu Nationality township, 10 ethnic villages, 2 fixed-point production enterprise for ethnic minorities supplies, nearly thousand various ethnic minority enterprises in all kinds of the form of ownership, 2 minority hospitals, 12 minority primary and secondary schools and kindergartens, 1 minority culture and art group, 6 fellowship groups of ethnic minorities, and 2 cemeteries for Hui Nationality. Moreover, as the provincial capital city, there are millions of minorities population inflow into Harbin for study, work or business, and constituting a relatively complete ethnic minority economic and social system. Confirmed by the Ethnic and Religious Affairs in Harbin City, the rate of minorities in construction area of each sub-project of the project is very low, and no minority areas involved, so the minorities will not be affected by the project. 3.2.1.3 Poverty There are five categories of people enjoy subsistence allowance determined by the Civil Affairs Bureau, they are civil residents enjoy subsistence allowance, people have low-income and difficult or in low-income families in urban area, rural residents enjoy subsistence allowance, low-income families in rural area, people enjoy five insurance in rural area. To these people, Civil Affairs Bureau gives minimum subsidy on time every month. At the same time, in recent years, in order to improve the life quality of these people, the Bureau increases investment year by year, gives more than a dozen aids, such as medical, education, housing, warming, heating, watering, power supply, compensation for demolition, property, reducing the fee of cable TV, temporary assistance, holiday rescue, and so on to civil families enjoy subsistence allowance. The Bureau gives many aids, such as medical, education, housing, warming, heating,
watering, temporary assistance, holiday rescue, and so on to people have low-income and difficult and in low-income families in urban area. At the end of 2016, the number of people with the minimum living allowance in urban and rural areas in Harbin was 325,553, accounting for 3.38% of the total population. Poor people are the vulnerable groups of public transportation services. The government will provide the corresponding public goods service fee exemption policy through the existing social security system, which reflects the appropriateness of the project compensation tilting to the vulnerable groups. At the same time, priority will be given to the employment of capable people from the local poor in the construction and operation of the project, so as to increase their economic income.

The bus company should use the bus electronic station to facilitate it. car. In addition, urban retired cadres, disabled soldiers, disabled police, etc. are free of charge when taking the bus. 3.3 Involuntary Immigration Involuntary resettlement should be avoided in the process of project construction as far as possible, but project construction needs to requisition certain land. So, involuntary resettlement is inevitable to some extent. After the impact of project resettlement, the resettlement impact of the project adjustment and the immigration documents to be prepared are shown in Table 3-5 below: Table 3-5 The Preparation of Immigration and Immigration Effect Identification Documents Preparation of Sub-Projec Immigration Projects Project Content Immigration Effects t Name Documents Reconstruct on the original road, no new land Mainly including road Building projects of will be occupied engineering, drainage Compile the Xinyang Road according to the plan. engineering, greening 6.06 km Resettlement public transportation Rearrangement within the engineering and other Policy priority corridor red line of planning is ancillary works Framework involved, no demolition is involved.

It can be observed from Table 3-5 that, based on the latest approved preliminary design, the construction of public transportation priority corridor subproject will construct on three existing government-owned load, which is reconstruct on existing land. Due to the construction of viaduct above Xinyang Road, the proposed Xinyang Road Section will be widened comparing with the original road section, which will occupy some green belts and pavement on roadside. Other two corridors are reconstructing on the original road. Thus, no land acquisition and no demolition is needed. Based on the preliminary design and after consulting and confirmed with Harbin Land Bureau, the construction of bus Priority corridor subproject will not involve in the land acquisition of rural collective land, only the right of land use for state-owned is transferred. The land occupied by the sub-project is state-owned land, and the current status is state-owned road. Therefore, the project will use the land for free without compensation. Roadside and road central reconstruction will involve the removal of trees and a small number of structures or existing infrastructure, and will temporarily occupy part of the land to solve the engineering waste and earthwork created during construction process. Land acquisition or temporary expropriation during the construction will be in accordance with bank policy procedures and policies. In conclusion, the project content adjustment did not increase the impact of immigration. 3.4 Category and Analysis of the Stakeholders 3.4.1Category of Stakeholders Due to the identification of stakeholders, the relative stakeholders includes government

According to the survey, the main methods for non-winter and winter travel in Harbin are buses, walking and taxis. The proportion of non-winter and winter trips is 80.8% and 81.6% respectively. Bus is the preferred travel tools for citizens, and there is no big difference in seasonal distribution. In non-winter season, the percentage of Harbin citizens who take at least one bus a week is 82.6%; in winter, the percentage of Harbin citizens who take at least one bus a week is 79.2%. Therefore, the construction of this project will greatly improve the efficiency of urban road traffic, accelerate the application of urban intelligent transportation technology, reduce urban traffic congestion, improve the operating environment of public transport vehicles, and greatly improve the environmental quality of cities by reducing the emissions of polluting gases. Impact on bus development: The social benefits generated by this project are also closely related to the development trend of public transportation. These three corridors involved in the project adjustment are the gathering place of Harbin comprehensive, transportation, administration, science and technology, commerce, residence, industry, etc., and will be connected to several subway lines: Xinyang Road Corridor is connected to the airport and Harbin City. The main line of the main commercial area; the Nanzhi Road corridor spans three districts of Harbin, with important commuting functions, accessing many commercial areas, residential areas, and office areas; the Yangtze River Road Corridor passes through cultural and entertainment, industrial areas, and residential areas. The improvement of residents' living standards, changes in
consumption habits and changes in travel styles have an impact on the project. The construction of the adjustment part of the project will be improved through the bus corridor, improve the road traffic conditions in Harbin, ease traffic congestion, save the operating cost of the vehicle, and reduce the impact of vehicle emissions and traffic noise on the urban environment. Development will change people's travel habits and attract more people to use public transportation as their main travel tool to promote green travel. On the other hand, the development trend of public transport has gradually changed with the improvement of the living standards of the country and people. From 2013 to 2016, the development of public transportation in Harbin is as follows: Table 3-8 The Development of Public Transportation in Harbin Increase percentage Bus unit 2013 2014 2015 2016 comparing with 2013 Bus lines in operation Number 211 211 255 289 36.97% Line length in operation KM 4514 4673 5086 5435 20.40% Operating vehicle at year-end Number 5990 6270 6923 7408 23.67% Passenger volume 10k people 118343 127877 134227 134330 13.51% Total revenue of passenger 10k RMB 93652 100155 102333 109619 17.05% Average daily passenger volume 10k people 324 350 367 368 13.58% Data source: Harbin 2017 Yearbook It can be seen from the above table that, although the bus operation lines, the operation length and the total number of buses have increased more than 20%, in which the
number of bus lines has growth 36.97%, the changes of average daily passenger volume, the total number of passenger volume, and passenger revenue are significantly less that the increase rate of input on buses. In which, comparing with 2015, the bus operation lines increase 13.33%, the operation buses increase 7% in 2016, while the daily passenger volume has almost no change at all. It shows that in recent years, the increasing populations who use public transportation as the main transportation method is small. However, the completion of this sub-project will guarantee and improve the comfort, convenience and safety of the public transport service facilities in Harbin, improve the public transport situation in Harbin, and encourage more people to travel green by bus. At the same time, the project will also save vehicle transport time and cost, expand the benefits of bus operations. Impact on resident’s transportation expenses: The economic and social development level is high in the project area, and the non-agricultural industries are relatively developed. Most of the affected labors are engaged in non-agricultural industries, salary income, income of work, self-employment income accounted for a high proportion of total household income. The temporary land occupation involved during the reconstruction process of public transportation corridors may affect the operation of shops along to some extent. However, after the operation of project, the improvement of traffic accessibility will be benefit to the improvement of the operating profit. The usage of the service needs to pay a fee; the public welfare and low price of a ticket is two outstanding characteristics of the bus operation. Now, the bus ticket in Harbin is 1 yuan/per person·per time for adult, 0.5 yuan/per person·per time for students, 0 yuan/per person·per time for elderly. Moreover, after the finish of the construction of HCWSPTSP, the ticket price will not be changed. So, it will not cause the economic burden to the family.

At the same time, the improvement of bus service level will also attract more travelers to choose to travel by public transport. Therefore, the project will greatly reduce the amount of private car travel, encourage residents to travel green, and reduce the pressure on the road network in the city. Residents' travel brings convenience and maximizes the social benefits of the project. Vulnerable Groups • Impact on women, children and the elderly: The project can provide them with an intelligent dispatch system to reduce waiting time; at the same time, the electronic information system can provide them with convenient and clear route indication; the construction of the platform infrastructure, including the platform and The vehicle's barrier-free design also ensures the accessibility and comfort of waiting and riding; the electronic eyes on the platform and the vehicle can improve the safety of the car. These will provide a useful guarantee for the physical and mental health and safety of vulnerable groups. At the same time, the project can create some job opportunities for women during construction and operation, and also help
improve women's work and life. Public transportation also has certain preferential fare policies for students and the elderly. Therefore, through the construction of this project, it will be beneficial to improve the quality of life of women and children in Harbin, and to ensure their travel needs and public safety. • Impact on ethnic minorities: The proportion of ethnic minorities in the sub-project construction areas of this project is very low, and does not involve ethnic minority areas. Minorities and Han people will benefit equally from the project and get travel due to the construction of the project. Convenience, reducing travel time, and may therefore prefer to travel by bus when traveling, thereby improving the environment and reducing health problems caused by the environment. The project does not have new land acquisition, nor does it involve the demolition of ethnic minority houses or minority enterprises. Therefore, the livelihood and life of ethnic minorities in the project area will not be affected by the project. • Impact on the poor: The project will give priority to the creation of employment opportunities to poor and low-income households with the ability to work to improve their economic income and quality of life. • Impact on the disabled: The design of the bus corridor has fully considered the needs of the disabled. The blind road, barrier-free facilities, electronic voice station and other contents have been fully considered in the station and the vehicle to fully guarantee the convenience of the disabled to take the bus. Sex. At the same time, free or preferential fare policies are applied to persons with disabilities. These will bring great convenience to the travel of disabled people. Employment: The project impacts on employment reflect in two aspects: project direct impacts on employment and project indirect impacts on employment. Among them, the direct impacts can be divided into two stages: project construction and operation. During the bus projects and public utility projects construction, the technical staff and casual labors need to be employed. During the operation, the fixed workers need to be recruited who are engaged in daily operation and management of enterprises and
