Description
The rehabilitation of predominately small road schemes vulnerable to climate change impacts included in the National Road Network Strengthening Programme in Poland 2022-2030.

Environmental aspects
Individual road schemes are expected to fall under Annex II of the EIA Directive 2011/92/EU as amended by Directive 2014/52/EU and have been subject to screening procedure in line with the EU and national legislation. Rehabilitation works will, in general, be done on existing infrastructure, within the existing right of way. Therefore, the expected impact on environment is limited. Where and if applicable and based on a risk-based approach as defined in the EIBG E&S Policy, the requirements of the Environmental Impact Assessment Directive 2011/92/EU as amended by Directive 2014/52/EU, Birds Directive 2009/147/EC and Habitats Directive 92/43/EEC will be checked during appraisal. The project is expected to contribute to climate action and environmental sustainability (CA&ES) objectives, in particular to climate change adaptation. Potential climate risks, the scope and adequacy of the applied adaptation measures for ensuring long-term resilience of the new road, and impact of the project implementation on the GHG emissions will be further assessed during the appraisal.
