For the forwarding expert, the construction of Lobau tunnel has utmost priority among the transport projects in Vienna. The implementation of this project will bring substantial relief for the citizens and companies in the city. The Lobau tunnel could reduce the traffic volume in the region by up to 25 percent.
Maria Smodics-Neumann, Chairwoman of the trades and crafts division in the Vienna Economic Chamber sees craft business constantly hampered in their delivery traffic due to the city’s parking zones management and riparians’ parking zones.
