Through the development of this area additional economic impulses for the economic sector of tourism shall be offered to a region, which on the other hand is faced with industrial decline. In the course of this, links shall be taken up to traditional resources and the dependency of the seaside town on the dominating environment 'water' shall be realized.
The applicant Arbeitsfoerderungszentrum GmbH is a counselling agency owned by the federal country of Bremen. Its main targets are the development and implementation of projects.

Through this project planning ideas of the city council - which up until now are only occasionally linked - will be integrated in an overall planning process and then be implemented in exemplary pilot schemes. The central element will be the setting up of a ferry system to prevent the individualized touristic traffic passing the city centre.
