Central position on the Adriatic total area 7.276,23 km² (6.4% of the territory of the Republic of Croatia) land surface 3643.33 km (46% of total surface) marine part of 3,632.9 km² (11.6% of Croatian territorial waters) island area 580 km² (8% of the county's surface) coastal area length 1350 km (22% of the coast of Croatia) Maritime benefits of 25 JLS (out of 34 JLS total) Maritime orientation The Zadar County forms the vision of a social-market economy in the existing territorial framework. Polycentric and balanced development is a key element of development. Urban, rural and island space complement each other and create a unique space of good living, based on the broad partnership of all our local communities. Comparative advantages such as good traffic connections, natural beauties and values as well as central position in the Croatian Adriatic coast are the starting points for the development of the Zadar County based on the objectives of EU development policy : • Smart growth through stimulating development, innovation, education and digital society, • Sustainable development with the growth of competitiveness, • Inclusive growth through poverty reduction and employment promotion. TRAFFIC CONNECTION: Zadar County for its geo-traffic position occupies a very important place in the Republic of Croatia and has the important role in traffic connection between northern and southern part of Croatia, as in the road, thus in rail and air traffic. By the construction of highway, hinterland of the Zadar County is better connected with coastal part, while the modernization of sea ports enabled easy connection of inhabited islands with the mainland. EXPANSION OF THE REGIONAL INTERMODAL TRAFFIC JUNCTION DEVELOPMENT PROJECT OF ZADAR COUNTY Port Gaženica will be the intersection of all maritime activities in the near future: • Fishing, ferry and cruise port • Cargo, RO-RO and container port The newly built passenger port Gaženica allowed conditions for simultaneous boarding and disembarking of passengers and cars for: • six ferries on local lines of 50 to 150 m long, • three ships in international navigation of 150 to 200 m long, • three cruiser ships on round trips of 250 to 400 m long, • as well as the possibility of accepting RO-RO ships at the same gates. Construction of a modern passenger port that aims to develop Zadar as cruising „home port” destination. The Port Authority of Zadar has chosen the operator of the Terminal and the Terminal Central Building for international passenger traffic, seafront near the operational terminal and the parking lot. The Contract will be awarded for a period of 20 years. Co-financing the Development of the Regional Traffic Master Plans for functional region: North Dalmatia by the Competitiveness and Cohesion Operational Programme. (estimated project value: 4 million HRK) The purpose of this document is to enable efficient and sustainable transport development of the region in accordance with European national strategies and plans. This Basic Strategic Transport Document has the task of identifying all the conditions, problems and potentials of the entire transport system of our area and offering frameworks of solutions and directions for development for all future key traffic projects. Zadar will be an outstanding intermodal traffic hub. The modern fast road, 20 km long, connects port with A1 highway, touches the shore, practically enters the heart of Port Gaženica. The railroad tracks also enter to the industrial-warehouse area, i.e. in liquid cargo warehouses (petroleum products) and bulk cargo (mainly soybeans). Modernization of railway is challenge and enormous investment potential. Zadar Airport is only 7 km away with flights to more than 30 cities in Central and Western Europe. The proximity of the new business zones Crno (City of Zadar) and Lonići (Municipality of Bibinje), modern Zadar airport and highway are port’s advantages. Implementation and integration of the planned project will completely change the look of the city, open the Zadar County to investors and will have an immeasurable impact on the development of the County.

DEVELOPMENT PROJECT OF ZADAR COUNTY The project objective : Zadar airport by the project of runway extension will be able to accept large aircraft for transatlantic flights (i.e. B 747-400). The project envisages a comprehensive reconstruction and a prolongation of the runway for 700 meters. All the investments at Zadar Airport will directly increase number of the tourists arriving in Zadar Region. Tourism is the economical area which has the biggest impact in Croatia`s GDP. By strengthening the airport, we are strengthening the entire tourist sector.
