Transport is one of the main branches of economy without which the functioning of a modern economy is impossible in general. It ensures the necessary economic links, joins all industrial units of a country into one whole thus establishing the conditions for economy to function coherently and efficiently. Efficient work of transport is significant not only for economy, but also for other spheres of activity. For instance, transport is an important factor satisfying cultural or recreational needs of population too. Thus, transport has an essential influence both on economic and social processes. It is not by chance that the significance of transport as a priority branch of economy has been stressed in the programs of the governments of the Republic of Lithuania, and transport development projects were among the first programs of the country. The importance of transport for Lithuanian economy is also enhanced by a convenient geographical position, because Lithuania finds itself on the crossroads of two transport corridors of international significance, in the future of which an increasing transport flow is predicted.
