The project includes the roll-out of the fibre network, as well as the related investments in the backbone network.

Aspects environnementaux

Investments in fixed telecommunications projects (mainly civil works for urban underground copper/fibre roll-out) do not fall under Annex I or II of Directive 2011/92/EU as amended. The related works have typically limited residual environmental effects as they are carried out in urban areas as well as alongside roads.

Passation des marchés

The promoter has been assessed by the EIB as being a private company not operating in the utilities sector and not having the status of a contracting entity, thus not being subject to EU rules on public procurement.
