Study summary

Natural and environmental context

The studies examine an immediate buffer of up to 500 metres from the route for direct effects such as noise, air, light, and vegetation impacts. Environmental influence follows watercourses, plains, agricultural land, and adjacent ecosystems rather than administrative boundaries alone.
