• The promotion and utilisation of cultural/natural heritage potential by investments in sustainable touristic infrastructure
• Preparation of studies, strategies, plans etc. in the field of preservation, development and utilisation of cultural/natural heritage

PA 2 aims at cooperating on cross-border accessibility through two selected investment priorities, each of them having a specific objective.

Specific objective 2.1: Improved cross-border accessibility through connecting secondary and tertiary nodes to TEN-T infrastructure 
This specific objective corresponds to Priority Investment no. 7/b, Improving regional mobility through  connecting secondary and tertiary nodes to TEN-T infrastructure, including multimodal nodes.

Types of indicative actions include, among others:

• Preparation of particular investment: elaboration of studies, analyses, feasibility studies, technical plans, obtaining necessary authorisations / certificates / permits / licences

^{OBS: Investments related to such studies should have a reasonable likelihood of being implemeted by identifying possible sources of funding. They shall also be part of the strategic planning for transport in the eligible area.}

• Construction, upgrading / modernization of roads with cross-border impact, providing or improving direct access of secondary and tertiary nodes to TEN-T core or comprehensive network and related infrastructure (also taking into account improving the conditions and safety of cycling, where possible)

Specific objective 2.2: Increased the proportion of passengers using sustainable – low carbon, low noise – forms of cross-border transport 
This objective corresponds to Investment Priority no. 7/c, Developing and improving environmentally-friendly (including low noise) and low-carbon transport systems, including inland waterways and maritime transport, ports, multimodal links and airport infrastructure, in order to promote sustainable regional and local mobility.

Types of indicative actions include, among others:

• Preparation of particular investments: elaboration of studies, analyses, concepts, technical / design documentation, elaboration of recommendations concerning legal administrative bottlenecks hampering cross-border mobility

^{OBS: Investments such related to such studies should have a reasonable  likehood of being implemented by identifying possible sources of funding. They shall also be part of the strategic planning for transport in the eligible area.}

^{OBS: With the regard  to improving railway transport, the Programme with its fairly limited budget can only undertake to induce and catalyse investments from other sources (like mainstream OPs of the two countries) by supporting the preparation phase (feasibility studies, engineering designs) of the development of railway infrastructure developments between the two countries.}

• Development of cross-border intelligent transport system, passenger information system, on-line schedule, e-ticketing, mobile apps, common tariff systems
• Development and integration of cross-border public transport services
• Investment into public transport related infrastructure (e.g. low emission vehicles, bus)
• Innovative solutions to improve cross-border public transport and reducing transport-related emission
• Exchange of good practices as part of complex projects contributing to the specific objective
• Construction, upgrading / modernization of roads, bicycle roads, path or lane, also by using existing infrastructure elements, where appropriate (e.g. dams, agricultural roads, etc.)

PA 4 aims at cooperating on health-care and prevention, cooperation achieved through one selected investment priority, having a specific objective.

Specific Objective 4.1: Improved preventive and curative health-care services across the eligible
This specific objective corresponds to Investment Priority 9/a, Investment in heath and social  infrastructure which contributes to national, regional and local development, reducing inequalities in terms of health status, promoting social inclusion through improved access to social, cultural and recreational services and the transition from institutional to community-based services.
