Communications:
Macedonia is at the crossroads of Southeastern Europe. Its developed road and railway infrastructure and the two international airports with regular direct connections to several major European transport centers make it an ideal transit and distribution center.
The two large Pan-European corridors – Corridor 8 (east-west) and Corridor 10 (north-south) are currently being upgraded. This will additionally strengthen the capacity of the Macedonian transport network.
