the overall and specific objectives laid down in transport development strategies
and in the EU support programmes.
According to the comprehensive approach the projects supported by EU funds have
been examined in the context of the Hungarian transport development.
Main objective of the evaluation:
• To formulate proposals for policy planning in 2014-2020, for the
programming and the programme management connected to the
implementation.
Evaluation objective
Groups of tasks:
(1) Strategic context analysis
(2) Financial analysis of the 2000-2011 period
(3) Direct effectiveness assessment
(4) Programme management evaluation
(5) Financial and environmental sustainability assessment
Content of the evaluation

Recommendations for the content requirements of the strategy:
•Not all types of infrastructure have to be built out everywhere, and not
the most expensive and state-of-the-art infrastructure should by all means
developed on every level. development directions should be determined on the
basis of social demands
•Integrated developments in focus emphasizing urban (intermodal centres,
community transport) and rural development (areas left out from public road
developments) aspects in transport projects
• Strengthening the role of the feasibility studies,
• Establishment of a transport development monitoring system.
Strategic context
Aspects to be considered in the strategy planning
• Principles of planning: need for a change in approach, to enhance the role of professional considerations in the decision making process
• Definition of the goal, the function and the role of the strategy
• Relation with other strategies
• Needs and limiting factors
• Minimum expectations and requirements
• Definition of types of task for preparation and implementation
• Definitions of tools for preparation and implementation
• Structural conditions of the planning process
• Establishment of a criteria system for project selection and prioritization (application, institutional conditions, monitoring system)
• Every fifth project serves the construction of new infrastructural element,
• Exaggerated social expectations decision-makers want to fulfil, not considering its
significant costs,
• During the selection of projects for EU financing the short, medium and long term
burdens on the budget should be considered.
• Importance of the operation and the maintanence of the existing infrastructure
beside developments.
• The maintanance and operation should be handled not after the
implementation, but during the planning, project preparation phase.
•„Polluter pays principle” into the practice introduction of the eletronic distance
related road toll system
