| 摘要： | Sustainable development is the development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It is an organizing principle for meeting human development goals while also conserving our scarce natural resources and ecosystem services on which the economy and society depend. Greening of Highway Corridors: The Ministry has formulated Green Highways (Plantation, transplantation, beautification and maintenance) Policy, 2015. In addition, IRC guidelines issued with regards to 2-laning, 4-laning, 6-laning and express highways contain different provisions for raising and maintaining roadside plantations, medians and landscaping. Further, IRC: SP: 108 -2015 "Guidelines on Preparation and Implementation of Environment Management Plan (EMP)" lays down comprehensive guidelines in conformity with the extant policies of the Ministry of Environment, Forests & Climate Change (MoEF&CC). It is mandatory to ensure compliance with the stipulations of IRC Special Publication IRC:SP: 108-2015 for all National Highways and Expressway projects. To keep pace with emerging international challenges and to meet its commitment to international conventions, IRC: SP:122 "Guidelines for Green Rating of Highways" and IRC:SP:133 "Guidelines on Reducing Carbon Footprint of Road Projects" for attending climate change aspects in road construction. |
