the European Transport Strategy
The European Commission aims to promote and strengthen the competitive
position of inland waterways in the transport system, and to facilitate its
integration into the intermodal logistics chain
Political support & harmonization Differences between
• (e.g. port of Rotterdam)
Baltic Sea, Rhine &
Danube Region
Lack of awareness & training in Infrastructure
logistics sector • modernization of the fleet, locks and
• (e.g. REWWay) ports
• maintainance of the waterway
Need for cooperation & data sharing Sustainability
• River Information Services(RIS), • alternative fuel (e.g. LNG Masterplan)
digitalization • more efficient navigation (fuel-saving)
• e.g. DoRIS
5Strategy Paper for Inland Waterway Transport
- initiated by Mr. Bodewig & BSF
The aim of the strategy paper for inland waterway transport is to
strenghten this mode of transport in the European Union by
- Involving relevant stakeholders and experts form the sector
- Identifying gaps and measures
to provide input for the national and European Transport policy.
Master Thesis Workshop
• Mr. Bodewig • Industry • Revised
• Mr. Köhl • finalized June • Policy • EMMA version

6Ongoing Projects for Inland Waterway Transport
EMMA Project (funded by Interreg)
- 21 Partners in the Baltic Sea Region (DE, FI, LT, PL and SE)
- aims at tackling the challenges and opportunities focusing on inland- and river-sea
shipping.
• increasing the modal share
• fostering a better integration in the BSR transport chains
• the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region
