World Economic Forum: Croatian highways among the best in the world

Croatian highways are among the best in Europe, but also in the world, the World Economic Forum announced, reported the Croatian Motorways agency (HAC).

In the competition of 141 countries, Croatia with an average rating of 5.6, together with Denmark and Taiwan, shares 12th place in the world ranking of the best global road infrastructures, according to the announcement by HAC.

Along with the report of the World Economic Forum, a ranking list of the quality of road infrastructure in 141 countries was also published.

Thus, Singapore has the highest average rating of 6.5, while behind the group of countries with an average rating of 5.6 which includes Croatia are some significantly more developed countries, such as the United Kingdom, Denmark, Germany, Finland, France, Luxembourg, Qatar and the USA.

Of the neighboring countries, Slovenia is in 36th place, while, for example, Hungary is in 69th place.

HAC recalled that in 2018, in the competition among 137 countries, with an average score of 5.5, Croatia shared 13th place with Denmark, Oman, Germany, Spain, Qatar, Sweden and Luxembourg.

From that group, the only improvement in infrastructure was shown by Croatia and Spain, while the other countries are ranked lower than our country in terms of the quality of road infrastructure.

“The quality of our highways is the result of continuous investment in infrastructure through regular and extraordinary maintenance and investment in projects to increase traffic safety,” concludes HAC.
