Inland Water Transport in Poland

Cezary Golebiowski    

Resumen

Water transport is also the most energy effective means of transportation. Diesel consumption by inland waterway for every 100 tonne-kilometres is lower than for other modes of transport ? rail or road. It can be assumed that the main driver of demand for container transport on inland waterways in Poland will be cross-docking in seaports with Polish supporting facilities (including in western European ports). Based on available forecasts it is assumed that level of cross-docking at maritime container terminals in Gdansk and Szczecin ? Swinoujscie port complex accessible to inland waterway transport will develop by 2027 at 2.57 million TEU per year. Inland waterways could potentially participate in handling the transport of these cargoes to business support facilities (competing with road and rail transport).
