Concept of connection between the Mukhavets and the Bug river as an element of International Waterway E40 development on the Polish-Belarusian border
Journal Title: Biuletyn Instytutu Morskiego - Year 2017, Vol 32, Issue 1
Abstract
International waterway E40 is part of the European inland waterway network of transnational importance. It is a specific link between two seas: the Baltic and the Black Sea. The route runs through three countries, Poland, Belarus, and Ukraine.The article presents the problem of the missing link on E40 IWW, particularly, the lack of adequate quality connection between the Bug and Mukhavets rivers. This missing link is on the Polish-Belarusian border in the high historical value - the fortress of Brest. The article shows three variants of connection. The concepts should not be taken as final projects recommended by the countries through which the concerned section of E40 runs. The article will be useful to create a strategy for the revitalization of international waterway E40 in Poland and will facilitate the decision on the accession and signing of the AGN Convention. The article can also be initial material supporting policies and companies’ development conducting their business, based on infrastructure along the E40 waterway. <br/><br/>
