Abstract

Transport systems, transport infrastructure and speed define the development of cultural landscape. Transport infrastructure is one of the driving forces in the development of cultural landscape. The study describes previous and future impacts of transport systems on cultural landscape and gives proposals for a sustainable development. It is now important to set boundaries to the new individual possibilities of acting - regarding to ecological sustainability and social justice. This means stronger measures and actions: land use planning, legislation, governmental aid for housing,... Transport and transport infrastructure needs a paradigm shift: the protection of close-by mobility needs is a new challenge. Elements of slowliness should be established, like access control for motorised traffic, alternative vehicles (gas, buses, horse-drawn carriage, using the bike and walking and other touristic offers).It is important to stop the price reduction for fast transport (cars, aeroplanes) and to internalise external costs.
