However, the EIS requires further study of noise and vibration, and the definition of corrective measures (noise barriers, fences, housing insulation, damping elements etc.) Construction project level.
The Government delegate, Rafael González Tovar, announced today that the Ministry of Environment and Rural and Marine Affairs has favorably evaluated the project "Study of the remodeling project information from the arterial railway network in the city of Cartagena," concluding that is permitted provided that the alternative and the inferred conditions of the evaluation process, will be adequately protected the environment and natural resources.
The purpose of the study report includes the incorporation of high performance Levante Madrid-Cartagena railway network, improving and enhancing intermodal services near Murcia.
These objectives are complemented by improving the integration of the railway in the city.
The project has been drafted with the aim of integrating the railway in the urban environment as directed by the Protocol of Cooperation signed between the Ministry of Development, the Government of the Region of Murcia, Cartagena City Council and the Railway Infrastructure Administrator (ADIF ) for the remodeling of the arterial network rail Murcia City.
The geographical areas in which action is part comprising a strip of land centered on the existing rail corridor, which includes the city of Cartagena and its surroundings.
According to the Environmental Impact Study in the vicinity of the rail corridor that runs its course not find a nature reserve or natural habitats of Community interest, it is not expected to produce any significant impact.
There has been a specific study of noise aimed to assess the impact of the entry into operation of the facility.
According to estimates there are no homes or buildings near the future route of the railway line which exceed the limits set under current law for any of the periods day, evening and night.
The results of this study show the reduction of rail noise condition compared to the current situation as a result of the underground part of the path.
However, the EIS approval is required further study of noise and vibration, and the definition of corrective measures (noise barriers, fences, housing insulation, damping elements etc.) Construction project level.
The corrective measures should be aimed at the infrastructure that lead to increased noise on pre-operational levels.
Specifically, in addition to the measures proposed by the study of environmental impact and immediately following the acoustic study, precautions are taken to prevent the condition on the Secondary School (IES) Polytechnic and the residential area of the street Mayor Carlos Tapia .
Be avoided noisy night-time work in the urban environment and adapt the work schedule according to the school calendar and in the vicinity of IES.
