Aspects environnementaux
The purchase of rolling stock does not fall under either Annex I or II of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive 85/337/EEC, as amended; so an EIA is not required. New rolling stock will conform to modern environmental standards. These include reduced noise and pollution, increased energy efficiency and restrictions on the use of some materials. The trainsets will also comply with all the European Technical Standards for Interoperability (TSI) including those for noise emissions and access for persons with reduced mobility.
