The purpose of this article was to present problems concerning efficiency of transport systems in comparison with aims of European transport systems which should be conducted during first decade of XXI century. The changes in consumption models, organizations of production and accessibility to infrastructure which were recently recorded had led to rapid development of transport systems. It had a great influence on improvement of competitiveness in Europe. It was pointed out that the development of mobility did not abide by the principles of sustainable development. Although there was a marginal improvement of energetic efficiency in transport, the total use of energy considerably increased. This contributed to rise of emissions which were produced by transport.

A smoothly operating transport system is essential to sustainable economic development. The article sets out to draw attention to the economy-related problems of the increasingly intense motorization and traffic congestion in Budapest. The physical constraints on the road system mean that the future travel requirements of the inhabitants can only be met by public transport, which is more efficient than private cars. Unless the spread of motorization can be halted, there will be mounting burdens on Budapest in congestion costs, time losses, fuel costs and environmental pollution. International experience shows that negative incentives are essential to easing congestion. Among of the most effective traffic-restricting measures, taken in several big cities abroad, has been to introduce a road charge in the city centre. The examples of London and Stockholm show city-dwellers support transport measures in the public interest, even if they place constraints on car use.

The article analyses the efficiency problems of transport systems in the EU and Hungary and how they relate to regulation of the sector. The low efficiency and distorted structure of transport in the EU countries and Hungary is one of the main sources of economic loss at the turn of the millennium. The paper shows, based on incentive theory, that the economic efficiency of transport can be markedly improved by means of incentive-giving regulation.
