    Objectives

    The project concerns the construction and operation of 51 stations of the new 49 km metro Line 9 in the city of Barcelona, to be developed through four long-term DBFO concession agreements corresponding to the four sections in which the project has been divided.

    To improve connections of the Line 9 to existing underground, commuter and long distance railways, including two intersection points with the new high-speed rail link Madrid-Barcelona-France and the city’s airport.

    Environmental aspects
    Procurement

    The project falls under Annex II of EIA Directive and, following the corresponding requests by the environmental authority, all environmental impact processes judged necessary have been successfully completed.

    The promoter is subject to and follows EU procurement procedures, including publication in the EU Official Journal. The promoter is subject to EU public procurement regulations (in this particular case, Directive 2004/17/CE), as demonstrated through several similar operations financed by the Bank in the past concerning Line 9.
