Source-derived summary

D200 is a state road connecting Plovanija border crossing and Buje, as well as A9 motorway Umag interchange via Ž5002 county road. The road is 7.6 km long.

The road also provides a connection to Kaštel border crossing via D510 and D21 state roads.

The road, as well as all other state roads in Croatia, is managed and maintained by Hrvatske ceste, state owned company.

Traffic volume

Traffic is regularly counted and reported by Hrvatske ceste, operator of the road. Substantial variations between annual (AADT) and summer (ASDT) traffic volumes are attributed to the fact that the road connects Plovanija border crossing to Slovenia and A9 motorway carrying substantial tourist traffic to Istria, a major touristic destination.

Editorial summary

“D200 road” enters the record as road in Croatia. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what D200, road and Croatia can confirm, complicate or overturn.

Editorial reviewA concise reference frame for defining the subject, testing terminology and identifying the institution closest to the evidence. The current 117-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its strongest next move is a source search built around D200, road and Croatia.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“D200 road” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, D200, road and Croatia provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 17, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q5204007. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
