As Professor Radu Pencea writes, transports are not only the chain between the economical branches and the exchange of goods transit system from country to country, but the field is a very important factor in GNP’s development and population’s tenure.

No globally organized transport system means no international economical exchanges and no lining up at the world circuit of all geographical areas. A competitive economy is not only a good technical or productive economy, but also a high quality transport’s one, too.

Transport and communications branch share in the total GDP varies between 6 and 8%. But there are countries where transport and communications branch share in the GDP is much higher, namely Latvia – 11,5% and Finland – 10,6%. Over 8% is also recorded in the Czech Republic (10,3%), Romania (9,8%), Slovakia (8,9%), Luxembourg (8,8%), Greece (8,6%), Russia (8,4%) and Croatia (8,4%).

Romania’s mediocre rating in terms of competitiveness is based not only on the weaknesses of the transport sector, but also on the negative aspects such as inadequate road network, low density network of airports, road, rail, air and waterway low quality transport service, and the weak research competence of the logistics industry.
