摘要：Including Republic of Croatia into European Union is, among other things conditioned by having a compatible traffic system which would represent a core part of European traffic system. The basic object concerning traffic system improvement is in increased international transport of commodities and passengers efficiency. To achieve the best possible system compatibility and traffic system efficiency, this article suggests multimodal transport model. Multimodal transport model elements in Republic of Croatia are: 1) multimodal law, 2) multimodal infrastructure, 3) multimodal suprastructure, 4) multimodal technologies, 5) multimodal commodity flows, 6) multimodal ecology, 7) multimodal tariffs, 8) multimodal intellectual capital, 9) multimodal mega and niche operators, 10) other multimodal elements. This multimodal transport model includes values representing quantitative multimodal transport elements for the year 2002. and assumed values for 2008. when Republic of Croatia ought to be a joined party of European Union, and values for the year 2012. when Republic of Croatia is planned to be the European Union full member. By setting up a multimodal transport model, a base for further multimodal transport system development is given which should bind national traffic flows to European traffic flows.
