of rapid economic growth, the distribution system mainly involved the mass transport of bulk cargo. Since the two oil crises, however, the focus has shifted to the transport of small cargo and parcels, requiring speed and high frequency. The network
Getting cargo into the particular port depends mainly on its modern port facilities. The quality of infrastructure in the region and Slovenia, the quantity of the appropriate areas for the extension of the port and the presence of different services
in and beside the port are of very great importance. That is proved by our comparison of cargo in Port of Koper concerning the structure of goods of the states in gravitation hinterland between the years of 1983 and 1990.
The region leads the country in transport and communication as indicated by route density, port capacity, volume of cargo and passenger flow. There are intra-regional differences, however, owing to differences in terrain. A high proportion
of the cargo, mostly fuel and raw material for industries, is handled by water transport. The direction of flow is unbalanced. Port construction has fallen behind the development in production and trade, yet the advantage offered by a dense network of inland
