Description
Summary:The Swedish Transport Administration is responsible for long-term planning of the transport system, as well as for building and maintaining public roads and railways. The work of the Transport Administration involves large-scale changes in the landscape and affects a wide range of heritage sites. In road and railway projects, cultural heritage is handled in the same way as other environmental issues and there is a system for identifying and coordinating different environmental requirements during planning and building. The Transport Administration has also developed a method for identifying, evaluating and analyzing cultural heritage values that are affected by various planned infrastructure measures, called Cultural Heritage Analysis. This analysis is used as one of several planning documentations and the results are used in other planning and decision documents, such as e.g. design programs and environmental impact assessments. The methods used by the Transport Administration enables a broad approach to cultural heritage issues and makes it possible to work widely with several different types of cultural heritages, regardless of whether they are protected by law or not.
