BY ROAD Bratislava is situated directly on country boarders with Czech Republic, Austria and Hungary. Bratislava is well connected to neighboring capitals by international multilane highways. Within Slovakia, the D1 motorway connects Bratislava to the east of the country (direction Kosice, Krakow), the D2 motorway connects Bratislava with Hungary to the south and the Czech Republic to the north and D4 motorway connects Bratislava with Vienna. BY AIR If you want to fly to Bratislava, you can choose between the city’s own international airport and Schwechat airport in Vienna, which is about 45 km from Bratislava and connected by regular shuttle buses. Regular flights link these airports with many major European destinations. Vienna International Airport (VIE) www.viennaairport.com Bratislava Airport (BTS) www.bts.aero BY TRAIN International trains to Bratislava’s main railway station run from Vienna (1 hour), Budapest (3 hours), and Prague (4-5 hours) several times a day. There are less frequent direct connections to Berlin, Bucharest, Kiev, Moscow and Warsaw. The main railway station is a short distance from the centre and there is a good connection to city public transport; alternatively, walking takes 15-20 minutes. Trains from Vienna also arrive at Bratislava– Petržalka Station, which is to the south of the city centre across the Danube River. [email protected] www.canoebratislava.sk [Type here] BY BOAT Perhaps the nicest way to arrive in Bratislava is by riverboat, via the Danube. The Rhine–Main– Danube Canal links Bratislava with the North Sea; the Danube River connects it to the Black Sea. Cruises along the Danube have been a big hit with tourists for many years. River cruises go to and from Budapest, and a scheduled passenger service, the Twin City Liner, connects Bratislava and Vienna by high-speed catamaran several times a day during summer.

At the very beginning of this period, we did not exactly have it easy. When just before Christmas in 2002 I took over responsibility for the administration and future development of our city, Bratislava was a quarter of a billion in debt, which was due to be settled in the sum- mer of 2003, but with only one quarter of this amount available to cover it. In such an atmosphere it was not exactly the best of times to think about development constructions.

At the same time, however, it draws on a rich and famous tradition reaching back as many as two thousand years. Due to this as well, Bratislava has nearly the same historical foundation as several other major cities of Europe. Today, it is a CITY OF BRATISLAVA : INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS : INTERNATIONAL CITY OF BRATISLAVA member of a mature family of 27 metropolises of the new, expanded Europe and, jointly with its neig- hbours, contributes to creating a metropolitan Euroregion which has all the prerequisites to become one of the most dynamic areas of European cooperation and development within the next 15 to 20 years. It would be diffi cult to fi nd another similar place in Europe whose history has involved so frequent changes of political, ethnic, social, as well as urban design system, as has that of Bratislava.

    Directive 2010/40 / EU Progress Report 2017 Czech Republic 12th October 2017 1 Introduction 1.1 General overview of the national activities and projects During the period under review major activities aimed at the development of Intelligent Transport Systems in the Czech Republic were launched and implemented. In consultation with the public sector, the private sector and academia the Ministry of Transport has drawn up a strategic document entitled “Action Plan for ITS Development", as well as a follow-up (implementation) document "ITS Implementation Plan". Both documents have been approved by the Czech Government. Several project plans listed in the Implementation Plan for ITS Development relate to the implementation of standards and norms in line with the ITS 2010/40/EU Directive and its successor regulations. Through the Czech Ministry of Transport and the Czech Roads and Motorways Directorate, the Czech Republic is involved in European CEF projects focused on the development of the priority areas and actions of ITS Directive 2010/40/ EU (C-Roads, Crocodile, etc.) There is also progress in implement planned projects of national importance for the development of ITS systems to improve traffic safety and continuity and also to increase the level of driver and traffic participant awareness.

  • Reader – Ports and Inland Vessels
    READER – PORTS AND INLAND VESSELS Extract of relevant passages from the „Manual of Danube Navigation”, via donau (2019) and of relevant passages from the “Annual Report of Danube Navigation”, viadonau (2018). Pictures: viadonau in Manual on Danube Navigation (2019), p. 79, 106 86 System elements of Danube navigation: Ports and terminals Terminology Ports are facilities for the transhipment of goods that have at least one port basin. Transhipment points without a port basin are known as transhipment sites. Source: viadonau Source: Comparison of ports and transhipment sites A port has many advantages compared to a transhipment site: Firstly it has longer quay walls and can therefore offer more possibilities for transhipment and logi- stics. Certain cargo groups are only allowed to be transhipped in a port basin in accordance with national laws. Secondly the port provides an important protective function: During flood water, ice formation or other extreme weather events ships can stay safe in the port. A terminal is a facility of limited spatial extension for the transhipment, storage and logistics of a specific type of cargo (e.g. container terminals or high & heavy termi- nals). A port or a transhipment site may dispose of one or more terminals. Ports as logistics service providers Functions and performance of a port Ports connect the transport modes of road, rail and waterway and are important service providers in the fields of transhipment, storage and logistics. In addition to their basic functions of transhipment and storage of goods, they also often perform a variety of value-added logistics services to customers, such as packaging, container stuffing and stripping, sanitation and quality checks.

    Working for the IAEA A Guide for US Citizens 2018 Edition Working for the IAEA A Guide for US Citizens 2018 Edition From the Editors This Guidebook is intended to provide practical information for United States citizens embarking on or considering an assignment at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Vienna, Austria. Since its first appearance in 1989, the Guidebook has been revised frequently to reflect changes occurring at the IAEA, within the United States Support Program to IAEA Safeguards (USSP), and in Vienna. The 2018 Edition reflects these changes at the time of publication. Nevertheless, IAEA salaries, allowances, and other benefits change, as do telephone numbers, addresses, and websites. Currency exchange rates, prices, and store hours in Vienna inevitably fluctuate. We regret any inconvenience this may cause our readers. The 2018 Edition of the Guidebook was prepared by the International Safeguards Project Office (ISPO) under the auspices of the USSP and was published by Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL).
