The project consists of a multi-annual investment program for upgrading of the railway infrastructure. Most of the project components are located along core rail routes within the TINA network and constitute necessary rehabilitation of priority lines. Project components are expected to be co-financed by ISPA.
The proposed upgrading of the Slovenian rail network along main corridors V and X would help shifting traffic to environmentally friendly rail transport and would help Slovenia cope with additional traffic expected between the EU and Slovenia while meeting EU standard requirements.
There are no known environmental concerns at this stage as the works are essentially rehabilitation and upgrading of the existing priority network and thus fall outside Annexes I and II of the 97/11/EC Directive.
Tendering will comply with the Bank's rules.
