The Construction Transition Pathway was published on 15 March 2023 and describes the conditions and actions needed to achieve a resilient, competitive, greener, and more digital construction ecosystem. It also proposes actions to support the transition towards safer buildings and affordable housing for all Europeans.

The updated EU Industrial Strategy emphasises a rapid green and digital transformation of EU industry and its ecosystems. It foresees cooperation with industry, public authorities, social partners, and stakeholders to manage the transition of each ecosystem. Each industrial ecosystem needs to transform its business models and value chains to become the foundation of a green, digital, and resilient European economy. In this context, transition pathways represent concrete plans to realise the transition needed.

The Construction Transition Pathway aims to provide a bottom-up understanding of the scale, costs, and conditions for resilience, competitiveness and the green and digital transition of the sector and includes the action plan realised by the European Commission and the High-Level Construction Forum (HLCF).
