THE ECONOMIC SITUATION OF THE SHORT SEA SIDPPING IN THE BALTIC SEA
Journal Title: Biuletyn Instytutu Morskiego - Year 1996, Vol 23, Issue 2
Abstract
The highly congested European highways system, including the Baltic Area and great need for change in the transport environment are stimulating the needs leading to the development of the short sea shipping. The idea has been strongly supported by the European Commission which is expecting to implement the new types of ships and modernize the ports making the short sea shipping profitable, and more effective. Analysing the situation which exist at the Baltic Sea, it could be said that the configuration of the Baltic coast is generally favourable for development of the short sea shipping. The existing and under construction as well as projected land-sea transport corridors as TEM, TEM-Scandinavia and Via Baltica will positively influence the Baltic shipping. The Via Hanseatica running parallel to the Baltic coast is rather in competition to the development of the short sea shipping.
