The Department for Space, Landscape and Infrastructure at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna divides themed streets into culinary streets , cultural or cultural-historical streets and landscape streets . These generic terms are further divided into flower or mountain roads , cider, apple, oil, milk or cheese streets , wine routes , as well as commercial or industrial streets , art or history streets and palaces streets .

At a workshop in 2005, the “Austrian Spatial Planning Conference” (ÖROK) assessed the large number of themed roads in Austria as “oversupply or undifferentiated supply [...] regardless of the suitability or potential of the region”.
