The trains that used to pass through \u0160trosmajerova Street, so close to the inhabitants\u2019 homes that they felt as if the trains passed through their bedrooms and kitchens, are nothing compared to 4 million vehicles that now pass yearly through Gradi\u0107, next to the buildings from the 18<sup>th<\/sup> century which are the landmarks of the Petrovaradin community, such as the City Hall building, the Building of \u0160ajka\u0161ki Battalion, the Belgrade Gate, the Old Military Barracks (which is one of the oldest buildings in the Lower Town), the birth-house of Ban Jela\u010di\u0107, etc.<\/p>\n<p>The participants in the conference, who come from different cities and are members of different institutions, who have different professions, ranging from architects, conservators-restorers, urbanists, traffic engineers, to art historians and archeologists, have agreed that the reorganization of traffic in the Lower Town of the Petrovaradin Fortress would mean a new dimension of life for this architectural heritage, and they supported their opinion with their examples of \u201chow it could be\u201d and with the examples of good practice in Zagreb, Budapest, and Porto (Portugal). Traffic has its modalities and dimensions. When the new Novi Sad\u2019s bridge over the Danube (where \u017de\u017eeljev Bridge, which was bombed, used to stand) opens, it is presumed that new solutions for the Lower Town of the Petrovaradin Fortress \u2013 Gradi\u0107 \u2013 will be found, so that the traffic of the current intensity, which is devastating for the 18<sup>th<\/sup> century architectural heritage, can be eliminated from Beogradska Street, the main street of the Lower Town.
