Abstract
Integration of the Kosovo road network in the Pan-European network, means, first of all, to establish a road system and infrastructure that is in accordance with the requirements and standards of Pan-European road networks, and secondly, to use / promote the geographical position of the Kosovo main road network, making it able to meet the requirements of Pan-European road networks. Beside the fulfillment of the constructive/ technical / geometrical requirements towards the road infrastructure, the road transport network needs to guarantee to its users a high, uniform and continuous level of services, as well as road commodity and safety. In this thesis, there is also treated the position of the Kosovo road network, the main road directions of Kosovo and its compatibility with the needs of the Pan-European connection, the roads and corridors of the Balkans in context to the Pan-European corridors. In the continuation of the thesis, through the Software Trans CAD, there is conducted the analysis and the modeling of the Kosovo and Balkan road network, the analysis of the best connection and the shortest roads of Balkan countries. The identification of obstruction and the presentation of possibilities for the orientation of the flux of goods in a shorter road, in the function of reduced transport costs. The comparison of advantages and disadvantages of the existing roads (the eighth Pan-European corridor, the Tenth Pan-European Corridor, Via Egnatia etc), the economical sustainability and competition, the service quality, limitations (both natural, environmental / season or humane), transport capacities

Summary
The development of road infrastructure is the determining factor of economic development of our country, it is an. Road Network of South East Europe (SEETO) and further complete of integration in Pan - European Transport networks. The road network of the first category includes the new highway (until now built 82 km long) that connects Kosovo from border in Vermica (border with Albania) with Kosovo's capital Pristina, to continue further to the border with Serbia in Merdare border crossing point, further being connected with the city of Nis which is a transit joint of the Pan European Corridor X. Ten Pan-European Transport Corridors are determined in the second Pan-European Transport in Crete, March 1994, as routes in Central and Eastern Europe that require major investments over the oncoming ten to fifteen years. The main sub-branches: St. Petersburg - Moscow - Kiev. In addition to the above corridors, later determined four transportation areas as important modal corridors: Barents Euro-Artic Transport Zone: Multimodal
