Publication metadata
The study “Assessment of the potential of maritime and inland ports and inland waterways and of related policy measures, including industrial policy measures”, is one of the four lots of the “Study on support measures for the implementation of the TEN-T core network related to sea ports, inland ports and inland waterway transport”. Its aim is to identify policy measures, which could promote the development of waterborne transport, covering maritime and inland transport and ports. The outcome of the study will be used to provide support to EU programs, in particular, the revised Trans-European Transport Network guidelines (TEN-T), the Strategy “Ports: an engine for growth” and the NAIADES II package “Towards quality inland waterway transport”. These three documents set out the main priorities and actions to be taken in order to achieve the transport policy objectives of the White Paper 2011. The objectives of this Study are: - To identify and analyse the existing role and the maximum realistic potential of EU waterborne transport along the TEN-T core network in a forward-looking way. - To develop recommendations for strategies and measures to realise this potential in a 2020-2030 timeframe at TEN-T core network, TEN-T corridor and port levels. In line with these objectives, the main results presented in this Executive Summary include: - A critical review of major developments and strategies related to the EU waterborne system - Main obstacles limiting the development of waterborne transport and policy scenarios to address them - Most updated European wide freight traffic projections for waterborne transport - An assessment of the policy scenarios and a set of recommendations on most promising measures
