Shipping Safety Management on Polish Inland Waterways
Journal Title: Archives of Transport System Telematics - Year 2018, Vol 11, Issue 4
Abstract
Over the past years, the role of inland waterway transport has increased compared to other modes of transport. The increasing intensity of the inland vessel traffic significantly affects the safety of navigation. The article analyses the main causes of accidents and incidents that occurred on the Odra Waterway and Lower Vistula. The authors have classified those accidents and suggested possible directions for the development of inland waterway management in order to improve its efficiency. Navigationally critical areas in the lower section of the rivers Odra and Vistula have been indicated. These areas should be taken into account in long-term planning of the inland shipping development to ensure transport safety.
