Upper Silesia urban framework programme is under European Investment Bank (EIB) appraisal for a PLN 2766 million (EUR 655 million) proposed financing. The total cost of the programme is PLN 6729 million (EUR 1594 million) and concerns nine framework loans for nine cities from the Upper Silesian Agglomeration: Bytom, Chorzow, Dabrowa Gornicza, Gliwice, Katowice, Ruda Slaska, Rybnik, Sosnowiec and Tychy. The operation supports urban development and infrastructure modernisation, including investments aiming to link and integrate the cities.
The project will contribute to the sustainable growth of Upper Silesian cities via investments in sustainable community development, sustainable mobility and energy efficiency, and is consistent with the EU’s Leipzig Charter as well as the EU2020 strategy. In addition, the project will enhance the local and regional transport network, helping to reduce the related levels of congestion, pollution, and traffic-related accidents.
