The aim of the research programme is to develop knowledge and methods that can help the transport sector to maintain and, where possible, improve the ecological functions and qualities of the landscape. The work within the program has a direct link with ongoing operations of Swedish Transport Administration, and the results are used for developing new guidelines, planning new investment projects, and in the development of maintenance of existing roads and railways.
