Pamplona set up a four year plan to renovate local infrastructure, including the old town: pavements have been lowered, accessible playgrounds and fitness parks for disabled and elderly people have been installed, and ramps, elevators and footbridges provide accessible solutions in uneven areas of the city.

This project will cover more than 40 km of urban roads providing access to areas of economic activity and the city centre. It will also finance the building of a by-pass which, in the long term, will relieve congestion in the centre by enabling heavy-goods vehicles in transit to avoid the city.

Such schemes make it possible to reduce traffic and pollution in particularly sensitive parts of the city or other heavily built-up urban areas.

The programme covers 11 urban areas in nine cities; it involves the four largest cities (Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Utrecht and The Hague) and five medium-sized cities (Eindhoven, Maastricht, Arnhem, Nijmegen and Enschede).

Objective 2 areas in the Land of Bremen include Bremerhaven and parts of the City of Bremen, while smaller eligible areas (the towns of Kassel and Baunatal) and Bavaria (Hof and Schweinfurt) are covered in Hesse.

This six-year programme has been drawn up as part of a scheme to protect Montero (in the east of Bolivia, in the Amazon region) and the surrounding agroindustrial villages from flooding. The aim is to: - protect the urban area of Montero (pop. 56 000) and improve the living conditions of its inhabitants; - protect social, energy and economic infrastructure and maintain the continuity of regional and international transit (the Cochabamba- Santa Cruz road and the Beni railway line); - improve and reclaim farmland (15 000 ha) with a view to increasing arable and livestock production; - stimulate development in the programme area; - rein ...[+++]force the structures of the SEARPI, an institute set up in the aftermath of 1983's floods for the purpose of monitoring and managing works on the river.
