Today, Czech road transport plays an increasingly important role in European road transport. The dynamism of its international activity is due, in part, to its strategic position at the heart of Europe and to European Union investments in cross-border cooperation programmes that now cover almost the entire national territory. As a transit country for European transport, the Czech Republic has a dense and well-developed road network. It mainly provides the East-West link in Europe. Czech road hauliers are very active in the road transport market between the main German ports of Hamburg and Bremen and the countries of Central and Eastern Europe.
