Abstract

Two corridors leading from northwestern to southeastern Europe - the Orient/East- Med and Rhine-Danube Corridors - are key areas for European spatial development. Moreover, sections of them are of special importance for central and southeast Europe. These sections include: 1) the primary axis of the Orient/East-Med Corridor leading from Vienna/Bratislava across Budapest and Sofia to Thessaloniki, 2) the Orient/ East-Med branch from Vienna/Bratislava across Budapest, Novi Sad, Belgrade and Skopje to Thessaloniki, and 3) the Danube river, from its source in Germany to the Black Sea. The area where these sections overlap includes the metropolitan areas of Vienna, Bratislava, Budapest and Belgrade and serves as a backbone for integrated infrastructure and spatial development along the Orient/East-Med Corridor, with many and varied connections to northern and southern Europe. Metropolitan nodes and infrastructural links along this backbone need to be further developed in a coordinated and strategic way. Current and future aspects of spatial development in the above-mentioned metropolitan cores - with a specific focus on Vienna - are briefly discussed in this contribution.
