FERRY SHIPPING ON THE BALTIC SEA - POLISH CASE

Journal Title: Biuletyn Instytutu Morskiego - Year 1996, Vol 23, Issue 1

Abstract

The Baltic Sea is characterized by a high activity of ferry and ro-ro shipping, although density of feny connections is different in separate region of that aquen. Economic, social and political changes in Central and East Europe, aspiration for countries' integration within the Baltic sub-region are the features which create new development possibilities for ferry shipping linking Scandinavian countries with Central and East Europe. The above processes are followed by growing competition, either between ferry lines and with alternative transport routes. Central localization of Poland in Europe, especially its location on the European North-South route, along with comparatively small distance 'from Scandinavian countries are the features which predispose Polish p01ts and feny operators to serve either container (ro-ro streams and passenger) cargo feny traffic. The presented factors forces new outlook on the operation of feny corridors passing through Polish ports.
