Transport Corridors Established in Chapter 21 During the accession negotiations with the European Union and consequent closure of Chapter 21 “Trans-Europan Networks” , this map showing the future development of the transport infrastructure in the RoC was agreed upon.

CROATIAN TRAFFIC AND DEVELOPMENT AXES This slide, which is a part of the spatial planning of the Republic of Croatia, only confirms that RoC, regarding the transport network which will be connected to the European transport network, remains at the same development axes.

Transport Infrastructure Network 29 547 km roads (public) 2720 km railways 804 km inland waterways, 2 lakes and 4 ports (lakes in national parks, tourist boats) 6 main maritime ports (Rijeka, Zadar, Split, Šibenik, Ploče, Dubrovnik) 9 airports (7 international- Zagreb, Osijek, Pula, Rijeka, Zadar, Split, Dubrovnik, 2 local- Brač, Mali Lošinj) Transport network of the Croatia’s infrastructure includes: Road network: 29.547 km of public roads Railway network – 2.720 km Inland Waterways (Sava, Dunav, Kupa, Drava) - 804 km, with four ports (Sisak, Slavonski Brod, Vukovar and Osijek) and two lakes in national parks (Visovac and Kozjak) The system of sea ports include 6 state owned ports (Rijeka, Zadar, Šibenik, Split, Ploče and Dubrovnik), and the system of air ports include 9 main airports (7 international: Zagreb, Dubrovnik, Split, Zadar, Pula, Rijeka and Osijek, and two small air fields: Brač and Mali Lošinj)

Public Expenditure and Investments Million kn The level of Croatian transport infrastucture development, especially of the road sector, has greatly influenced the overall development of the country. This slide shows financial investments per transport sector in the past decade.

Goals Growth of infrastructure in response to identified flows of goods and rise in the volume of goods traffic and related services will enhance: competitiveness of the Croatian economy competitiveness of the Croatian transport system number of jobs Incomes Instead of conclusion: TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE A CROATIAN EXPORT PRODUCT Rehabilitation and construction of transport infrastructure are of national importance having a direct impact of the competitiveness of economy, number of jobs and, of course, generated total income. The results achieved so far can surely be considered Croatian export product. 9

Pelješac Bridge € 320 million Current public roads network with highlighted motorways network. One of the main national priorities in the road sector is the construction of the bridge Pelješac – mainland. The rationale of this investment is to establish “solid” link between all parts of Croatia. The bridge will enable the Dubrovnik-Neretva County to have an uninterrupted road connection with the rest of the country; this will promote the development of Dubrovnik, Pelješac peninsula and the whole territory of this southern county.

Pelješac Bridge Dubrovnik-Neretva county is physically separated from the rest of Croatian teritory. The construction of the bridge across the Mali Ston canal will provide a link with Dubrovnik-Neretva county thus securing for all parts of Croatia to be in one road network.

Railway network Total network length 2 720.0km Single track 2 465.7km Double track 254.3km Powered by electricity 977.6km /35.6% of total length/ This slide shows the existing railway network in the RoC.
