The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (‘EBRD’ or the ‘Bank’) is considering providing finance to the future Concessionaire who will be selected by the Slovak Ministry of Transport, Construction and Regional Development (MoT) for the D4-R7 Project. The Project is categorised as a Category A project under the EBRD’s Environmental and Social Policy (2014). EBRD operates a procedure for Environmental and Social Due Diligence for Category A projects, which requires preparation, public disclosure and consultation on environmental and social impact assessment documentation prior to approving finance for a Project. To accord with the EBRD’s Performance Requirement 10, a disclosure package (comprising this Non-technical Summary (NTS), Environmental and Social Action Plan (ESAP), Stakeholder Engagement Plan (SEP), Land Acquisition and Resettlement Framework (LARF), as well as Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) documentation and Biodiversity Compensation Plan (BCP)) has been developed to provide current information about the Project. This Non-technical Summary summarizes the requirements for and process of assessment of environmental and social impacts, land acquisition and stakeholder engagement for the Project. The disclosure package will be available throughout the Project’s life. A grievance management procedure for the Project is defined in the Stakeholder Engagement Plan. The procedure for addressing grievances related to land acquisition or resettlement is provided in the LARF. Project Description The Project involves the design, construction, financing, and operation and maintenance of two dual-lane sections of the D4 highway (Sections 1 and 2), three sections of the radial R7 expressway (Sections 3, 4 and 5) with a total length of 59 km, and the relocation of 4.8 km of local road (Sections 6 and 7). Sections 1 and 3 will directly impact on two Natura 2000 sites (Danube Floodplains Special Protection Area and Biskupické Floodplains Special Area of Conservation) and the Danube floodplains Ramsar site. Sections 1 and 2 (D4 Highway) are part of the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T), totalling 27 km in length and include eight interchanges and 55 bridges. 15 October 2015 Page 1 Ministry of Transport, Construction and Regional Development of the D4 R7 Highway Project - Slovak Republic Slovak Republic, National Highway Company Non-technical Summary Sections 3, 4 and 5 (R7 Expressway) total 32 km and include five interchanges and 29 bridges. The R7 Expressway will connect the D4 and existing D1 highways and will secure access to the City of Bratislava from the south-east. It will also improve the connectivity between the industrial zones and urban districts. Details of the sections included within the Project are as found in Table 1 below. This information is also detailed in Figure 1 and Figure 2 below. Table 1 Project section details Section no.

The proposed D4 Highway reduces the number of vehicles on existing roads in the city of Bratislava, alleviating congestion of the main access routes in and out of the city centre. The proposed R7 will contribute to the transport connection between the D1 and D4 highways, through the creation of additional ring road sections in order to help relieve traffic on existing radials through heavily urbanized areas. Project R7 should eliminate daily traffic jams from Dunajská Streda through the city districts of Bratislava. At present, the I/63 bypass has insufficient capacity and safety is a noted issue that requires improvement. The proposed road in Section 5 will serve as a bypass for the villages of Dunajská Lužná, Rovinka and the town of Šamorín, 15 October 2015 Page 3 Ministry of Transport, Construction and Regional Development of the D4 R7 Highway Project - Slovak Republic Slovak Republic, National Highway Company Non-technical Summary improving both capacity and safety issues. The R7 will link industrial zones and manufacturing facilities with residential areas, which will result in a better distribution of public transport services to the surrounding area.

  • (2020), Transport-Related Problems of Bratislava City and Its
    Przegląd Geograficzny 2020, 92, 2, s. 213–226 https://doi.org/10.7163/PrzG.2020.2.3 https://www.igipz.pan.pl/przeglad-geograficzny.html Transport-related problems of Bratislava city and its suburban region Daniel Michniak Institute of Geography of the Slovak Academy of Sciences Štefánikova 49, 814 73 Bratislava, Slovakia [email protected] Abstract. Increased daily mobility between Bratislava and its hinterland combines with mobility within the city to put demands on the transport system. The massive increase in road transport, connected inter alia with the rapid development of suburbanisation based mainly on individual automobile transport, has caused many problems. This paper introduces some of those problems as manifested in Bratislava and its hinterland – from a geographical perspective – and outlines the way in which an unfavourable situation can be improved. The future of transport in Bratislava and its hinterland requires the creation of a multimodal transport system, which can effectively serve various transport requirements and ensure the mobility of inhabitants. Keywords: transport infrastructure, public transport, individual transport, suburbanisation, Bratislava. Introduction The decrease in public transport and massive increase in individual automobile transport after 1989 in Slovakia (Horňák and Pšenka, 2013; Michniak, 2018) and other post-com- munist countries (Howkins, 2005; Pucher and Buehler, 2005) caused many problems, e.g. with insufficient transport infrastructure, traffic congestion, unregulated parking in cities and towns, missing integration of public transport, etc. Transport-related problems are visible mainly in cities and their surroundings and they are connected inter alia with the rapid development of suburbanisation (Šveda and Šuška, 2019). Bratislava as the capital of the Slovak Republic is its country’s most important social, economic and cultural centre, attracting inhabitants (migrants and commuters) from all regions in Slovakia, as is confirmed by study of interregional migration patterns there (e.g.

  • Construction of a Motorway in Slovakia Under the Juncker Plan: a Public-Private Partnership with High Costs and Limited Benefits
    Briefing paper June 2016 Construction of a Motorway in Slovakia under the Juncker Plan: A public-private partnership with high costs and limited benefits After being elected President of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker introduced his investment plan to stimulate the European economy. The so-called European Fund for Strategic Investment (EFSI) should unlock additional investment of at least EUR 315 billion over a three year period (2015-2017). One of the projects benefiting from the financing concerns the design, construction, operation and maintenance of about 27km of a motorway around Bratislava. What is European Fund for Strategic Investment (EFSI)? The European Fund for Strategic Investments, launched jointly by the EIB Group - European Investment Bank and European Investment Fund - and the European Commission, is part of an initiative to help mobilizing private investments. This “Investment Plan for Europe” aims at improving the investment environment, at making sure investments reach the real economy (e.g. via the creation of the European Investment Project Portal and by increasing assistance to project promotors through the European Investment Advisory Hub) and to trigger additional investment of at least EUR 315 billion over a three year period (2015-2017). The EUR 315 billion investment target is supposed to be accomplished by financing provided by the EIB to projects carried out by private or public investors and based on a guarantee of EUR 16 billion from the EU budget, complemented by a EUR 5 billion allocation of the EIB’s own capital. The EIB should provide funding for those economically viable projects which have a higher risk profile than ordinary EIB activities.

We are very pleased that we can finally organize this event in the newly built “ZEMNÍK” canoeing and rowing venue. This course exists already several decades, but just five years ago, we managed to get the venue into long-term lease, and we have large building plans with it. Canoeing history began here three years ago when, under provisional conditions, we organized qualification races and national championships in canoe sprint and rowing. The Olympic Hopes Competition will be the first international event here at Zemník in Bratislava and we would like to build great sports venue with perfect conditions for training and competing so we can host all kind of races, from national championships to the world championships. The Olympic Hope Competition is an event for young people aged 15 to 17 and gives athletes the chance to race at international competition with other successful athletes from over 30 countries around the world and gives them an opportunity to meet new friends. We can say today this event is like unofficial world championships for these young athletes. At last, we would like to thank the organizing committee, the volunteers and the officials for the effort to organize a quality competition worth the title of “Olympic Hopes”. Thanks also to our supporters Ministry of Education, Science, Research and Sport, Slovak Olympic and Sport Committee and other supporters such as sports clubs, sports centres as well as the manufacturer of paddles JANTEX and VAJDA boats and of course Slovak Canoeing sprint section.
