The article analyses the importance of the development of contrailer transportation, assesses the current situation of such transport in Lithuania, presents a SWOT analysis of contrailer transportation in Lithuania, analyses the technologies of contrailer transportation applied in Europe, calculates the criteria for expert evaluation and determines the importance of the requirements. The study’s primary goal is to discover the main problems in developing contrailer transport in Lithuania and provide suggestions. Based on the qualitative study results, the most crucial criterion is the lack of specialized rolling stock. The least essential measure is the reduction of the carrying capacity, of the rolling stock, when transporting contrailers. The identified problem areas show that more detailed studies on technological, technical and organisational elements are needed to apply to haul contrailer trains in Lithuania.
