Description

This is a sub-operation under the Programme Loan for rolling stock and related infrastructure for local and regional public transport in Baden-Wuerttemberg (2014-0765).

Objectifs

The project concerns an investment into a rolling stock in Baden-Wuerttemberg (Network 7b). The new rolling stock will improve public transport services, around Karlsruhe (Network 7b "Stadtbahn Karlsruhe", including: Bruchsal and Achern via Karlsruhe, Karlsruhe and Öhringen Cappel, Karlsruhe and Pforzheim, Karlsruhe and Achern, Karlsruhe and Eutingen im Gäu, Bruchsal and Bretten, Pforzheim and Bad Wildbad and Bretten and Mühlacker). The new vehicles will improve the overall mobility in the wider Karlsruhe region, while reducing the adverse impact on the environment, thus making public transport more attractive for the passengers.

Aspects environnementaux

The manufacture of rolling stock does not fall under either Annex I or Annex II of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive 2011/92/EU as amended. It is not clear yet if any depots are necessary at this stage. As an associated facility a new depot might be necessary. This could fall under Annex II of the EIA Directive, and therefore may be subject to an EIA procedure. German law requires compliance with Directive 2011/92/EU, as amended, to obtain building permits for such elements. If construction of a new facility is required, then the promoter undertakes to inform the Bank on environmental compliance by submitting a copy of the environmental decision and the non-technical summary of the EIA (if applicable), as well as evidence that the requirements of the EU Habitats Directive 92/43/EC and the EU Birds Directive 79/409/EEC have been fulfilled, if applicable.

Passation des marchés
