Aspects environnementaux

Investments in fixed telecommunications projects (mainly civil works for urban underground copper/fibre roll-out) do not fall under Annexes I and II of Directive 2011/92/EU. The related works typically have limited residual environmental effects as they are mainly carried out in urban areas alongside roads.
Full environmental details will be assessed during appraisal, including the possible impact on protected flora and fauna (Habitats 92/43/EC and Birds 79/409/EEC).

Passation des marchés

Procurement is expected to be in line with EIB guidelines for private sector projects. The Bank’s services will verify details during the project’s due diligence.
