THE CDGK IS UNDER TAKING A STUDY ON ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT (EIA) OF THE OPERATION OF VEHICULAR TRAFFIC WITH THE FOLLOWING OBJECTIVES:

TO CREATE THE BASELINE DATA TO DETERMINE AND ESTIMATE THE EXTENT OF POLLUTION AND THE DAMAGES DONE TO THE HEALTH AND LIVING ENVIRONMENT

IDENTIFICATION OF REMEDIAL MEASURES AND THE MOST APPROPRIATE COURSE OF ACTION FOR ABATEMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION IN THE TRANSPORT SECTOR

BROADER TASKS WILL INCLUDE:

ASSESSMENT OF THE PROBLEM DUE TO DIFFERENT FUELS IN USE

IDENTIFICATION OF THE ROLE OF CULTURAL PRACTICES OPERATING IN THE TRANSPORT SECTOR AND THEIR CONTRIBUTION TO THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS OF THE CITY

ESTIMATION OF THE COST OF ENVIRONMENT POLLUTION RESULTING FROM PRESENT DILEMMA IN THE TRANSPORT SECTOR
