The Europe 2020 strategy and the
legislative package from the European commission provide
European Union (EU) member states a framework and means for
moving towards a greener and more competitive low carbon
economy that makes efficient use of resources and is
resilient to climate risk. The integration of both
mitigation and adaptation actions into Romania's
national policies, programs, and strategies will be a
critical step in shifting its development path towards a
climate resilient, low carbon, and green economy. In this
context, the Government of Romania has requested the World
Bank to provide advisory services on climate change,
including operationalizing its national climate change
strategy and action plan, identifying and integrating
climate-related actions in new operational programs,
building a solid analytical base for impact assessment and
climate-related decision making, and enhancing
climate-friendly practices and monitoring system. This
report is a deliverable under component B of the advisory
services; support the preparation of the climate
change-related actions under the 2014-2020 operational
programs. This report presents the results of the rapid
assessment process for the transport sector. This includes
both general transports (which previously fed into the
sector operational program for transport (SOP-T) and urban
transport (which previously fed into the regional
operational program (ROP).
