    Environmental aspects

    If situated within the EU, all the project components would fall under Annex II of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive 2011/92/EU, as amended by Directive 2014/52/EU, and would therefore be subject to screening. Screening out decisions for the tunnels and bridges have already been issued by the Competent Authority, and similar decisions are expected for the remaining two components. The overall compliance of the project to EIB standards, and the safeguard management arrangements, will be verified during appraisal.

    Procurement

    The EIB will require the promoter to ensure that any procurement procedures are done in accordance with the EIB's Guide to Procurement and the relevant applicable EU public procurement rules.
