    Description
    Objectives

    Warsaw currently has one 23 km long metro line that is north-south oriented, the construction of which started in 1987 and was completed in 2008. In 2006 the plans for a new line II was approved, with a length of 33 km. The route will run from west to east and include 27 new stations.

    The broad objective of the project is to improve the quality of the operation of public transport and move towards a more environmentally and financially sustainable transport system in the City of Warsaw. The project will improve the quality of public transport service in terms of speed, comfort and reliability and will increase the attractiveness of public transport in the urban area, thus contributing to reduce reliance on private cars and the negative impact of transport on the environment. The project runs through areas designated as Convergence Regions under the Community Support Framework and is therefore eligible for Bank financing under Article 309, point (a) regional development and (c) sustainable communities, sustainable transport and urban public transport of the EC Treaty.

    Environmental aspects

Full details will be checked at appraisal stage.
