Transportas yra vienas pagrindinių šalies ūkio infrastruktūros elementų, turinčių esminės įtakos ekonominiams ir socialiniams procesams. Europos Sąjungos (ES) šalys, turinčios neefektyvias transporto ir komunikacijų sistemas, neintegruotas su kaimyninių šalių atitinkamomis sistemomis, rizikuoja likti izoliuotos. Palanki Lietuvos geografinė padėtis teikia geras perspektyvas šalies ekonomikai bei transporto sektoriaus plėtrai. Lietuva 2004 m. įstojusi į ES ir siekdama harmoningai įsijungti į europinę transporto sistemą, užtikrinančią laisvą asmenų, prekių, kapitalo ir paslaugų judėjimą pirmiausia turėjo aktyviai integruotis į Europos Sąjungą politiką, plėtoti intermodalinį transportą, kurti ir vystyti modernią multimodalinę transporto sistemą, savo techniniais parametrais ir teikiamų paslaugų kokybe prilygstančia senųjų Europos Sąjungos šalių lygiui. Tokia transporto sistema turi efektyviai sąveikauti su kaimyninių šalių transporto sistemomis ir užtikrinti Lietuvos gyventojams patogų susisiekimą su minimaliomis laiko sąnaudomis.
Due to Lithuania's geographic location, the transport sector, particularly freight transit, plays a key role in the economy of the country. European Union (EU) countries with inefficient transport and communications systems could remain isolated. The main task after Lithuania's accession to the European Union was to harmoniously integrate the Lithuanian transport sector into the European transport system and ensure the free movement of persons, goods, capital and services. The current mission of the Lithuanian transport system is to guarantee a sustained mobility of society members and carriage of goods by maintaining a dynamic development of the national economy and increasing a competitive capacity of Lithuania and the enlarged EU in international markets. Such transport system has to interact with the neighboring countries' transport systems effectively. The purpose of this master’s thesis is to analyze the issues concerning transport policy after Lithuania's accession to the European Union, the effect of EU transport policy on the transport sector and the development of intermodal transport in Lithuania. The literature of both foreign and Lithuanian authors has been studied in the project in order to help to indicate and set the tasks for this work and to support the validity of choosing the topic. In order to evaluate the EU transport policy long-term priorities, goals, and changes as well as Lithuanian transport sector development issues, EU transport policy impact on our country's transport system, to identify positive and negative aspects affecting intermodal transport development and integration into the European transport system, the analysis of legal (and other types) documents of Lithuanian Republic, European Union and empirical study has been undertaken. All this has brought the study to confirm the hypothesis that afer accession to the EU Lithuania's transport policy, promoting the development of intermodal transport, rapidly integrated into the European transport sector. The project is concluded with the suggestions to improve the development of intermodal transport sector in Lithuania.
