Aspects environnementaux
If the project were located in the EU, the acquisition of new rolling stock would fall outside the scope of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive (2011/92/EU, as amended), as its construction will take place in the manufacturer's plants. This also applies to the implementation, meaning no EIA is required for the project.
Passation des marchés
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. In particular, calls for international tenders will be published in the Official Journal of the European Union, in accordance with the Bank's Guide to Procurement. Procurement is expected to start in the second half of 2015.
