Abstract: Transport infrastructure plays a critical role in economic growth, trade facilitation, and improving the overall quality of life. This paper provides a detailed comparative analysis of Romania’s transport infrastructure relative to other European Union (EU) countries, with a focus on road, rail, maritime, and air transport systems. It explores the challenges Romania faces in modernizing its infrastructure, examines current policies, and offers innovative solutions that are critical for the country’s progress. Additionally, the paper underscores the importance of sustainability, particularly the need to reduce carbon emissions and align with the EU’s environmental goals. Through the integration of various data sources and policy recommendations, this paper suggests how Romania can enhance its transport infrastructure to improve connectivity, competitiveness, and economic growth. Sustainable transport solutions and innovative technologies are critical for Romania as it strives to close the gap with other EU countries and better integrate into the broader European market.
