The paper reports on missing networks in Europe's transport and communication infrastructure. Starting from the keyrole of infrastructure for economic development, it is argued that unless urgent action is taken to fill the gaps they threaten to reduce seriously the competitive advantages that will be gained from the single European market. Six examples of missing networks are presented in this study. They relate to combined freight transport, the European airline system, highspeed rail networks, European common carriage, inland waterways and telecommunication. The logic behind these missing networks is discussed and it is concluded that the problems can only be solved if one has a pentagon of concerns, rather than just a one‐ or two‐dimensional infrastructure planning policy.
