Develop a sustainable and competitive transport system on the Danube river EU Strategy for the Danube Region – Vienna/Bratislava Conference 20. April 2010, Bratislava Otto Schwetz, Chairman of the Pan-European Transport Corridor VII, the Danube Markus Simoner, via donau – Austrian waterway infrastructure management and development enterprise 1

Territorial coverage of the Danube region strategy

The significance of the Danube waterway for the Danube region countries The Danube river directly connects 10 out of the 14 Danube region countries Furthermore the Danube also connects to the regional hinterland via its navigable tributaries (Sava, Drava, Tisa and the Danube-Black Sea canal) and more than 70 ports (40 of international importance)

The Danube river in the context of the European waterway network Trieste

The Danube river in the context of the European policy framework EC Guidelines for the Development of the Trans-European Transport Network TEN–T (Priority project 18 - Waterway axis Rhine/Meuse-Main-Danube) EC Transport White Paper (Mid-term review 2006) NAIADES – European Action Programme for inland waterway transport (2006) and its implementation platform PLATINA EU enlargement and European neighbourhood policy: EC guidelines for transport in Europe and neighbouring regions (´Building bridges´ 2007) The new Europe 2020 strategy (20/20/20 climate/energy targets – low carbon economy)

The Danube river: Multiple uses and functions Waterway Valuable ecosystem and habitat Flood protection Agriculture Drinking water Tourism and recreation Waste water and cooling water Fishery Energy production Strasse dominiert – Donau in der Ostrelation stark Das Verkehrsaufkommen im österreichischen Donaukorridor steigt rasant an. Im Jahr 2007 lag es bei knapp 81 Mio. Tonnen und ist damit seit dem Jahr 1994 um 157 % gestiegen. Die Grafik zeigt das grenzüberschreitende Transportaufkommen (Nettotonnen) der drei Verkehrsträger Schiene, Straße und Wasserstraße im Donaukorridor. In Betrachtung aller Verkehrsträger wird deutlich, dass der Westverkehr in Bezug auf die Transportmengen deutlich größer ist als der Verkehr an der Ostgrenze. Der bilaterale Verkehr (in Summe von West- und Ostgrenze) ist im Jahr 2007 mit 61 Mio. Tonnen immer noch deutlich höher als der Transit mit 20 Mio. Tonnen. Vor allem der Transit ist in den letzten Jahren massiv angestiegen. Er ist heute fast 3,5-mal höher als im Jahr 1994, auf der Straße sogar fast 5,9-mal höher. Die Straße dominiert den Modal Split im Donaukorridor mit 52,3 %. Damit werden auf der Straße mehr Güter transportiert als auf den beiden anderen Verkehrsträgern zusammen. Die Donausschifffahrt spielt jedoch als Verkehrsträger im Korridor eine wichtige Rolle. Ihre Bedeutung zeigt sich vor allem im Transport zu Berg: Sowohl an der Ostgrenze als auch im Transit hat die Donau hier einen Anteil von knapp einem Drittel. Erst im Import und Export an der Westgrenze geht ihre Bedeutung stark zurück – hier überwiegt die Straße deutlich, und zwar sowohl zu Berg als auch zu Tal.

Strategic actions Sonstige Implement the agreed TEN-T priority Danube waterway infrastructure projects on time and in an environmentally sustainable way Develop Danube Ports into multimodal logistics centres Improve the environmental performance of Danube navigation Implement harmonised River Information Services on the Danube Sonstige Invest in jobs and qualifications in the Danube navigation sector Improve comprehensive waterway management of the Danube (ecology, navigation and flood protection) Leichtes Minus – dennoch 9 Mio Tonnen Umschlag Das Rekordergebnis der österreichischen Donauhäfen und -länden aus dem Vorjahr konnte 2008 nicht wiederholt werden. Der gesamte wasserseitige Umschlag blieb im Berichtsjahr knapp unter der 9-Millionen-Tonnen-Marke und sank damit um 6,4 %. Einzig der Donauhafen der voestalpine in Linz konnte einen Zuwachs von rund 6 % verzeichnen. Der Umschlag im öffentlichen Hafen Linz hat sich im Vergleich zum Jahr 2007 um 9 % verringert. Auch der Hafen Wien musste bei den wasserseitig umgeschlagenen Gütermengen einen Rückgang von 11 % bilanzieren. Dies lässt sich vor allem auf geringere Umschlagsmengen in den Bereichen Erdölprodukte und feste Brennstoffe zurückführen. Der Hafen Enns-Ennsdorf und der Mierka Donauhafen Krems verzeichneten donauseitig signifikante Mengenrückgänge von rund 30 %. Betroffene Gütergruppen waren im Ennshafen Holz und mineralische Rohstoffe, im Mierka Donauhafen Krems vor allem Schotter. Die sonstigen österreichischen Häfen und Länden wie Korneuburg, Ybbs, Pischelsdorf, Aschach und Pöchlarn haben im Jahr 2008 mehr als 1 Mio. Tonnen Güter umgeschlagen. Examine potential effects of climate change on Danube navigation Coordinate national transport policies in order to promote Danube navigation

Danube navigation is a multi-dimensional system Inland waterway transport is an interlinked system with many parameters to be taken into consideration Integrated actions, international cooperation and active national policies are needed to maintain and restore the Danube as a natural living space and habitat as well as a European transport axis!
