Vorgeschlagene EIB-Finanzierung (voraussichtlicher Betrag)

PLN 1000 million (EUR 235 million)

Gesamtkosten (voraussichtlicher Betrag)

PLN 2195 million (EUR 515 million)

Umweltaspekte

The investments proposed under the project do not fall under either Annex I or Annex II of the Environmental Impact Assessment Directive (EIA) 2011/92/EU as amended by Directive 2014/52/EU as manufacturing and use of rail rolling stock is not included in either list. The need of EIA and/or assessment according to the Habitats Directive for associated facilities (e.g. maintenance workshops or depots) will be analysed during the appraisal. All else equal, the project is expected to have a positive environmental impact by helping the railways to maintain modal share in key sections of the passenger market that are most appropriately met by rail. In addition, the arrangements for the scrapping of the replaced stock will be checked during appraisal.

Auftragsvergabe

The EIB will require PKP to make sure contracts for the implementation of the project have been tendered according to the relevant applicable EU procurement legislation (Directive 2014/25/EU and Directive 92/13/EEC) as interpreted by the EU Court of Justice, to be pubilshed in the EU Official Journal, as and where required.
