SUBTERRANEOS DE BUENOS AIRES SEOrt
Beschreibung
The EIB financing targets the modernisation investments in the Buenos Aires metro network. The promoter has developed, with the assistance of the Inter-American Development Bank (IADB), an ambitious modernisation investment programme, which includes signalling system renewals, new power-supply systems, improvements in the ventilation systems, acquisition of additional rolling stock, refurbishment of the depots, and significant redesigns in all major stations to improve passenger safety and accessibility. Buenos Aires' metro system is among the oldest in the world. The first two lines were built respectively in 1900 and 1934 and only very limited upgrades have taken place in the past decades. The precise project scope will be defined during appraisal.
Ziele
The project complies with the 2014-2020 External Lending Mandate for Latin America, as it contributes to enhancing the public transport network and improves environmental sustainability and energy use optimisation, due to the expected positive modal shift to metro from private vehicles, with a reduction in transport-related pollutant emissions and fuel consumption. Furthermore, it is in line with the Bank's policy on climate change, falling into the category of sustainable transport.

Umweltaspekte

If the project had been implemented in an EU member state, the project would have fallen outside the scope of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive. Nevertheless, environmental and social aspects will be assessed as part of the due diligence, in particular concerning respect of the main principles of International Labour Organization (ILO) core labour standards.
Auftragsvergabe
The Bank will require the promoter to ensure that implementation of the project will be done in accordance with the Bank's Guide to Procurement.
