  • Ports and Logistics Scoping Study in CAREC Countries 3Rd Proof.Indd
    Ports and Logistics Scoping Study in CAREC Countries CAREC countries rely upon open-sea ports of third-party countries outside of their borders as conduits for their exports and imports. These open-sea ports are located mostly in non-CAREC countries and act as international oceanic trade nodes to connect CAREC freight moving on cross border railways, highways, inland sea shipping, and on river and canal barges. This Scoping Study analyses seaports and multimodal corridors serving CAREC landlocked countries. The purpose is to provide sufficient background to ports and logistics developments in the region and identify areas and potential activities that will require cooperation among CAREC countries and development partners within the framework of the CAREC Program. About the Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation Program The Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation (CAREC) Program is a partnership of 11 member countries and development partners working together to promote development through cooperation, leading to accelerated economic growth and poverty reduction. It is guided by the overarching vision of “Good Neighbors, Good Partners, and Good Prospects.” CAREC countries include Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, the People’s Republic of China, Georgia, Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, Mongolia, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan.

  • Traffic Connectivity in Croatia in the Past: the Dubrovnik Region Case
    Athens Journal of History - Volume 1, Issue 3 – Pages 195-204 Traffic Connectivity in Croatia in the Past: The Dubrovnik Region Case By Marija Benić Penava This paper analyses the development of traffic routes in the far south of Croatia during the 19th and 20th century. Poor traffic connectivity was the consequence of traffic policy which was subordinated to the interests of Vienna in the Austro- Hungarian Monarchy, and after World War I, to Belgrade. Since the Dubrovnik region was oriented towards the sea, and since traditionally it had strong entrepreneurship and sea traffic that enabled great economic prosperity of Dubrovnik in the past centuries. Ships flying the flag of Sveti Vlaho (Saint Blaise, the patron saint of the city) were present in the Mediterranean and the world’s oceans, yet the service industry which Dubrovnik provided was completed by tourism only in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. The perception of Dubrovnik as a world tourist destination was established in the first half of the 20th century and that could only be maintained by quality traffic routes. Therefore it was extremely important for the prosperity of the far south of Croatia to have and retain the best connectivity by railway as well as sea, land and air traffic. Introduction The transition from the eighteenth to the nineteenth century was a period of great economic change in Europe. The discovery of the Watt’s steam engine (1764) enabled mechanical transport, which neither the working animals nor the natural power, on which transportation was dependent previously, could not contest. The steam engine passed the milestone in the field of transport connection.

  • Belt and Road Transport Corridors: Barriers and Investments
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive Belt and Road Transport Corridors: Barriers and Investments Lobyrev, Vitaly and Tikhomirov, Andrey and Tsukarev, Taras and Vinokurov, Evgeny Eurasian Development Bank, Institute of Economy and Transport Development 10 May 2018 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/86705/ MPRA Paper No. 86705, posted 18 May 2018 16:33 UTC BELT AND ROAD TRANSPORT CORRIDORS: BARRIERS AND INVESTMENTS Authors: Vitaly Lobyrev; Andrey Tikhomirov (Institute of Economy and Transport Development); Taras Tsukarev, PhD (Econ); Evgeny Vinokurov, PhD (Econ) (EDB Centre for Integration Studies). This report presents the results of an analysis of the impact that international freight traffic barriers have on logistics, transit potential, and development of transport corridors traversing EAEU member states. The authors of EDB Centre for Integration Studies Report No. 49 maintain that, if current railway freight rates and Chinese railway subsidies remain in place, by 2020 container traffic along the China-EAEU-EU axis may reach 250,000 FEU. At the same time, long-term freight traffic growth is restricted by a number of internal and external factors. The question is: What can be done to fully realise the existing trans-Eurasian transit potential? Removal of non-tariff and technical barriers is one of the key target areas. Restrictions discussed in this report include infrastructural (transport and logistical infrastructure), border/customs-related, and administrative/legal restrictions. The findings of a survey conducted among European consignors is a valuable source of information on these subjects. The authors present their recommendations regarding what can be done to remove the barriers that hamper international freight traffic along the China-EAEU-EU axis.

  • Long Freight Trains in Poland, What Is the Problem of Its Usage?
    PRACE NAUKOWE POLITECHNIKI WARSZAWSKIEJ z. 111 Transport 2016 Krzysztof Lewandowski _"G#"G+@V"G @Y"*" LONG FREIGHT TRAINS IN POLAND, WHAT IS THE PROBLEM OF ITS USAGE? The manuscript delivered: April 2016 Abstract: The article presents an analysis of possibility of usage of long freight trains in Poland for connection with the modern Silk Railway to China. The desire to use freight trains with a length of more than 600 meters in Poland encounters several problems on the existing infrastructure. Limita- tions of usage are found here. Also, it presents possible ways for long freight trains. Keywords: long freight train, limitation, usage, Poland 1. INTRODUCTION The first step to create a new connection to China was made in 1990 just before collapsed the Soviet Union. In next year, 1991, many countries retrieved the independence. The idea of reviving east – west trade on the old Silk Road was raised by the Minister of Foreign Affairs for the USSR, Eduard Shevardnadze in September 1990 at the Vladivostok Interna- tional Conference. In several years was many conferences to create the new transport cor- ridor Transport Corridor Europe–Caucasus–Asia (TRACECA) through Armenia, Azerbai- jan, Bulgaria, Georgia, Iran, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Romania, Tajikistan, Tur- key, Ukraine and Uzbekistan [47]. On 1999 Poland and Ukraine signed memorandum "XL - Odessa [49]. On 2014 was increased the tensions between Kyiv and Moscow. In spring 2014, Russia began a military invasion on the Crimea peninsula and military conflict in eastern Ukraine. Russia decided to create sanctions against Ukraine and began to limit the free transit for Ukrainian goods through its territory.
