Abstract

The implementation of land acquisition projects for public needs is currently a very relevant topic, because the communication infrastructure (streets, roads) is being developed very rapidly throughout Lithuania, for the installation of which these projects are being prepared. Although the volume of project preparation is increasing, the problems of preparation and implementation of these projects are still large and have not been fully resolved legally. The purpose of this article is to analyze the features of land acquisition projects for the development of transportation infrastructure for public needs. In the course of the study, 2014–2023. 33 projects have been implemented and are currently being prepared, of which 33 were approved in Lithuania during the considered period. After a detailed analysis of 14 projects, the biggest problems faced not only by project developers, but also by initiators and organizers of these projects have been identified. Using the insights expressed by experts, the article presents suggestions that would contribute to a smoother project preparation and better meet the expectations of interested parties.
