Circular construction in Europe:Handbook for local and regional governments
It goes without saying that the construction sector has to become more sustainable and circular, and cities and local authorities should play a major role in this transition. In line with the EU Commission’s Green Deal and Circular Action Plan 2020 and legislative proposals, such as the Fit for 55 p...

In line with the EU Commission’s Green Deal and Circular Action Plan 2020 and legislative proposals, such as the Fit for 55 package, that set the green and circular transition as a key priority for the EU, the CityLoops project has focused on circular economy solutions for bio-waste and construction and demolition waste, including soil.

It goes without saying that the construction sector has to become more sustainable and circular, and cities and local authorities should play a major role in this transition. In line with the EU Commission’s Green Deal and Circular Action Plan 2020 and legislative proposals, such as the Fit for 55 package, that set the green and circular transition as a key priority for the EU, the CityLoops project has focused on circular economy solutions for bio-waste and construction and demolition waste, including soil.
