Inland Water Transport

Topicality. Currently, the demand for transport by inland waterways is constantly growing, especially in economically developed countries. In order to maintain the national economy and create a more efficient and sustainable logistics system in Ukraine, transportation by inland waterways must be developed, because inland waterway transport has a number of advantages over other modes of transport, which creates the preconditions for changing logistics routes. To reduce transport costs, improve infrastructure and logistics in the face of uncertainty, the relationship between the stakeholders of rail and road transport with representatives of water transport is important. Reorientation of transportation from road transport to inland waterway transport, intensification of international trade and attraction of new freight flows to inland waterway transport will contribute to the overall growth of the country's economy and is possible subject to liberalization of transportation.Aim and tasks. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the economic and environmental feasibility of transporting goods by inland waterway transport in the context of the global trend of the need to preserve the environment and rational use of resources.Research results. The port infrastructure of Ukrainian rivers also does not meet modern requirements and is actually in decline. Most of the ports are located in the central areas of cities, causing the destruction of city roads by trucks that are sent for loading / unloading at these ports. In the context of the global trend of the need to preserve the environment for most countries of the world, inland waterway transport is the cheapest and most environmentally friendly mode of transport, suitable for transporting significant volumes of products, mainly raw materials. In Ukraine, the volume of cargo transported by river transport has significantly decreased over the past decade. Of the available volumes of freight transport by river transport, building materials, grain and metallurgy products prevail in the nomenclature. A certain impetus to the development of inland waterway transport was the adoption of the Law of Ukraine "On Inland Waterway Transport", which outlined the prospects for increasing the cargo turnover of river transport. Considering the volume of emissions from river transport, it is the most environmentally friendly compared to road transport. At the same time, the existing rolling stock of water transport is capable of replacing several thousand trucks. It has been established that the Dnieper basin plays the main role in the transportation of domestic cargo and passengers. More than 90% of all river transport in the country is carried out along the Dnieper and its largest tributaries Pripyat and Desna. However, the low operational characteristics of the fleet are one of the factors holding back the development of freight traffic on inland waterways. The four selected shipping companies provide cargo transportation on the Dnieper and Danube rivers, and are also capable of ensuring the potential development and competitive advantages of Ukrainian water transport.Conclusion. The studies carried out made it possible to substantiate the economic and environmental feasibility of transporting goods by inland water transport in Ukraine. Based on the determination of the share of transportations by inland water transport in the EU countries and Ukraine, the potential opportunities for the development of this area were established, taking into account other similar indicators, as well as the growth of export flows of grain and metallurgical products from the central part of Ukraine. Therefore, the development of domestic inland waterways is economically necessary, expedient and will have a positive effect for the entire country and the economy as a whole, given the low level of pollution and environmental pressure on air, land, water resources, biodiversity, which, in turn, affect climate change. , ecosystems in general and public health. Taking into account the total length of the navigable routes of Ukraine and the tendency to reduce the existing fleet, due to moral and physical aging, it is important to assist in attracting investments in the river fleet, will provide potential technical and technological opportunities for the development of all inland water transport and its key players.

The article deals with urgent problems of transport system development in Russia, paying the particular attention to inland waterway transport. The research is focused on the investment in the development of road infrastructure and methods of investing transport projects using public-private partnership mechanisms. The main reasons constraining the development of inland water transport in Russia are the insufficient amount of funds contributed to the development of the industry and their occasionally unreasonable use. In recent years, the world trend is to attract not only owners, but also infrastructure users to finance the inland waterway transport industry at a time when the financing gap is significant. The authors concluded that the simultaneous implementation of measures combining the introduction of fees paid by user and involving the improvement of water transport infrastructure through the public-private partnership mechanisms would promote attracting additional sources of investment. These investments will help to accelerate the industry modernization and implement the innovative scenario for the development of national economy. The authors developed the new model of state policy on attracting extra-budgetary sources of financing to the inland waterway transport industry.

The passenger transportation practice, both in Russia and abroad, shows that this transportation give little profit or completely unprofitable with the exception of tourist transportation. Given the social significance of passenger transportation for the population of the vast territory of the Russian Federation, state authorities implement measures of the state support for various types of transport for these transportations, including reimbursement of expenses to transport enterprises from budgets of various levels. Obviously, the question which type of transport to subsidize and how much requires special attention. At the same time, passenger transportation subsidizing by inland waterways has been canceled since 2005, and decisions made in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation on subsidizing from regional and municipal budgets quite often do not compensate the expenses of shipping companies. The article proposes possible options, in fact, for the revival of socially significant passenger transportation by inland water transport in Russia and proposes an approach to determining the maximum amount of subsidies to cover the loss of socially significant passenger transportation. The authors of the article have shown due to what factors direct and indirect (non-transport) components of the effect can be obtained as a result of the implementation of their proposals in the practice of water passenger transport enterprises.

Lagos city has abundant navigable inland waterways which if fully harnessed would help minimise road traffic congestion, pollution and provide low cost means of long distance travel within the city. This study examines inland water transport services on Lagos lagoon focusing on Ikorodu-Ebutte Ero route. Primary data were obtained using structured questionnaires. While, secondary data were sourced from relevant government and private agencies. Data were analysed using descriptive techniques including frequency counts, tables and graphs. The results revealed an inadequate provision of terminal facilities and vessels in the area. It was also found that most (67.3%) of the trips via water transport in the were mainly for work purpose. In addition, low patronage was observed and it was found to be mostly due to comparatively high cost of fares and passenger safety concerns, as indicated by 67.4% and 58.7% of the respondents respectively. Furthermore, high income earners where found to patronise this mode than low income earners. The high frequency of use of water transport by the respondents (71.3% travel by water every day) indicates that, this mode has great potential of being widely adopted, if greater attention is given to its development by both the government and private sector. There is, therefore, a need for more investment in water transportation in the area through the provision of modern infrastructure and vessels.
