On behalf of Residents of the Białowieża Region, bearing 44 signatures, on improvement of the road infrastructure versus protection of forest environment 

Verzoekschrift gericht aan: Petitionsausschuss des Europäischen Parlaments

The petitioners suggest a balanced approach between environmental standards in the forest Region of Białowieża and the needs of the local residents. Environment protection organisations have allegedly requested to stop the renovation of the Narewkowska road, a key connection between two regional cities, while residents claim the renovation works have been agreed and conceived in compliance with all environmental standards, including related to Natura 2000.
