As a World Heritage Site and a highly sensitive ecosystem the Lake Neusiedl/Fertötó - Region requires a tailor made environmentally sound management of transport and infrastructure, to accomplish both the requirements to protect human health and the environment as well as to perform as a sustainable region. As a result the umbrella project was started to develop and implement measures which will ensure that the intrinsic assets of a World Heritage Site and its ecosystem remain in accord with the challenges posed by the need for mobility, as well as by transport, economy and tourism. Additionally, this project is a contribution to a sustainable, cross-border development of the region. The umbrella project is based on an agreement by the Austrian and Hungarian ministries of environment, which has been declared at the international conference “Sensitive Areas – a Key Challenge for Environment and Transport in Europe” in 2001 in Eisenstadt; the project was later expanded to include the Slovak Republic as well.
