Description
Framework loan for the financing of infrastructure investments related to urban road safety in five Ukrainian municipalities (Kiev, Odessa, Lviv, Dnipro and Kharkiv).
Objectives
The framework loan will finance urban traffic infrastructure with the aim to improve road safety for drivers and, in particular, most vulnerable road users such as pedestrians and cyclists. In addition to improved road safety and reduced accidents, the investment has potential to decrease the indirect financial cost arising from poor road safety, and therefore positively impact the local economic development.
