Abstract

The purpose of my study is to what extent EU co-financing projects have helped to bring the transport infrastructure of Central and Eastern Europe closer to the more developed countries. I will evaluate projects implemented in the CEF Transport Program in CEE countries on the basis of my research. A further aim of my paper is to respond to dilemmas of what is more worthwhile to develop super railways or airports in the region.
