Tool summaryName of the tool Traffic planning – a SEA-based guideline for the regional level Description of the tool The regional authority responsible for transport planning is obliged to provide a programme that deals with the future development of traffic and transport on the regional level. The overall goal is to develop and operate a sustainable traffic policy, considering national and international legislation and directives. So the traffic planning unit has made a transport concept based on the federal “National Transport Programme” which formed the basis for other concepts on the regional level. Within this concept, certain emphasis is placed on environmental friendly, alternative traffic options such as to provide and increase the public traffic share, and infrastructure for cycling and pedestrians.
In order to reach the above objectives and being able to realise the necessary procedural steps, the planning unit developed a tool which follows in principle the SEA-idea. The tool follows a SEA-template adapted for local requirements within the regional context, aiming to optimise the planning and procedural requirements for integrated large-scale projects. Numerous aspects from the different sectors need consideration and the involvement of the public is one of the central concerns.
