This has led to a significant burden on the existing transport infrastructures, particularly in the South-Eastern Europe, whose network was less developed.

The increasing flow of vehicles (passenger cars and commercial vehicles) on the main roads also imply the need to ensure higher levels of risk control and security, which otherwise are likely to weigh heavily on the social and economic development.
