Romania has the lowest ratio of highways and express roads to registered vehicles compared to its Central and Eastern European neighbors, despite recent growth in its rapid road network. As of late 2024, Romania had approximately 1,270 kilometers of high-speed roads and over 10.7 million registered vehicles. Comparisons with neighboring countries show that Bulgaria has twice as many kilometers per vehicle, Hungary three times more, and Poland also leads significantly in both road network size and vehicle count relative to the available infrastructure. Furthermore, Romania experiences substantial transit traffic from foreign vehicles, which is a factor not always uniformly captured by other nations’ data collection methods.
