Railways dominate with inefficient single-track lines at 30-63 km/h; Pyongyang has a metro (34 km), trams, and trolleybuses as backbone. Outside capital, networks near collapse with skeleton services or none; poor integration, frequent breakdowns, energy shortages limit reliability and coverage.

Underdeveloped secondary network (26,180 km total, ~10% paved excluding motorways); 6 motorways (660 km) mostly near Pyongyang in poor condition, potholed, unpaved rural roads. Fuel shortages, minimal traffic management, low private car use; maintenance severely lacking.

Severely restricted domestic internet (Kwangmyong intranet) with average speeds under 5 Mbps; no widespread broadband or fiber. Mobile data limited to 3G/4G in urban areas for elites; near-total isolation from global web, minimal infrastructure investment.

Avg: 3.5+ Mbps • Negligible; no significant fiber deployment

94 airports total, 17 major, but primarily domestic/military use; Pyongyang Sunan (FNJ) sole significant international gateway with limited flights to China/Russia. No major hubs, poor global connectivity, basic facilities.

Hubs: Pyongyang Sunan (FNJ)
