Aspects environnementaux

The project does not fall under the scope of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive 2011/92/EU as amended by Directive 2014/52/EU, since it entails manufacture of metro and tram rolling stock, which will take place in a manufacturer's plant. Therefore, no EIA will be required for this project. Due to the nature of this project, no impact on any Natura 2000 areas is anticipated. The project is expected to have a positive environmental impact by helping the public transport to increase and/or maintain modal share. Furthermore, the project should contribute to reducing the GHG emissions and noise. Arrangements for the scrapping of dismissed rolling stock will be assessed during appraisal.

Passation des marchés
