'''Transport in Spain''' is characterised by a network of roads, railways (including having high speed rail network that is the [[List of high-speed railway lines|second longest in the world]]), trams, air routes, and ports. Its geographic location makes it an important link between Europe, Africa, and the [[Americas]]. Major forms of transit generally radiate from the capital, [[Madrid]], located in the centre of the country, to link with the capitals of the [[autonomous communities of Spain|autonomous communities]].

Spanish transit is marked by a high degree of integration between its long-distance railway system and inner-city [[Rapid transit|metro]] systems, although the historic use of [[broad gauge]] has limited integration with its neighbours. Spain is currently working to increase and improve linkage with the rail systems of France and Portugal, including the [[high-speed rail]] line between [[Madrid]] and [[Lisbon]].<ref>{{Cite web|last=|date=13 April 2016|title=ESI funds to improve Madrid – Lisboa connection|url=https://www.railwaygazette.com/infrastructure/esi-funds-to-improve-madrid-lisboa-connection/42342.article|access-date=2020-03-26|website=[[Railway Gazette International]]|language=en}}</ref>
