Sažetak
Relations between tourism and transport industries are important for the entire Croatian economy and are expected to grow in the future. The most important thing from the aspect of transport is definitely the infrastructure of all branches of transport (primarily road traffic), followed by the development of ship and ferry lines, both along the Adriatic coast and between the islands. The construction of transport access and infrastructure of our tourist destinations, as well as transport links between them, is crucial for the development of tourism. More than 70 per cent of foreign tourists and 70 per cent of tourist boats (up to 7 m) come to Croatia by roads. They all expect transport infrastructure on a European level, providing fast, safe and comfortable transport from their homes to tourist destinations. Therefore, our transport lines and their quality, road features, traffic capability and equipment are what the development of our tourism depends on, especially in central and southern Adriatic, considering the wider economic goals of Croatia and the growing interest of the European Union in our country, its economy and tourism.
