Summary/Abstract: One of the most important conditions for economic development and overall progress of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina is the development of a modern transport network. If we consider motorways as an essential element of state development, the construction of Corridor Vc should be considered above all as a very important social and economic project that will bring new momentum to the economy and domestic production. Corridor Vc is included in the TEM network of South East Europe's transport infrastructure and runs from Budapest (Hungary), via Osijek(Croatia), Sarajevo (BiH), to the Ploce port (Croatia). Throughout BiH, the 330 km long Vc corridor route runs north-south, in the middle of the country, in the most favorable natural conditions, in the valleys of the Bosnia and Neretva Rivers. This paper presents the project's expected impacts on the environment and social issues, as well as the measures that must be taken to meet the legal and environmental requirements of the project as part of environmental and social policy.
