Reducing the environmental impact
Protecting biodiversity
VINCI companies are
locally responsible for the operational application of the biodiversity
protection policy, which they adapt according to their activities and
where they operate. They undertake to acquire greater awareness of
biodiversity so they are able to take action as early as possible
(impact studies, prevention measures, etc.) and limit the risks of
endangering flora and fauna environments, both on land and at sea.
The network of VINCI motorway concession companies in France has 529 crossings for wild animals (478 in 2007) and, 8,405 km of fences to protect animals (8194 in 2007). The network had a total 17,295 ha of natural spaces in 2008, compared with 17,148 in 2007)
At VINCI Park, 41% of sites now use biological cleaning products, compared with 34% in 2007)
In 2008, VINCI increased its level of "biodiversity risk" management by structuring the approach at the central level. Sub-working groups have been created: regulation monitoring, compensation, monetisation and "green belts, blue belts". Consultation and information sharing are also structured through participation in certain environmental and biodiversity consultative associations (Entreprises pour l’Environnement, Fondation Recherche pour la Biodiversité, etc.).
