The Handbook contains a comprehensive overview of services offered by ports of Szczecin and Świnoujście, and at the same time it is effective in promoting companies that provide port services in the region. Ports of Szczecin and Świnoujście are managed by the Szczecin and Świnoujście Seaports Authority, an entity in which the majority stake is owned by the State Treasure. The two ports together comprise one of the largest and the most universal port complexes on the Baltic Sea. Both ports are important links in the Trans-European Transport Network within the Baltic–Adriatic Corridor. They are situated on the shortest route linking Northern Europe and central and southern part of the continent, as well as they are the most convenient ports on the sea route connecting Russia and countries in the eastern part of the Baltic Sea and Western Europe. The ports have well developed inbound and outbound road, rail and inland shipping networks. Thus, they enjoy excellent conditions to play the role of a transport bridge between the north and south, as well as east and west of Europe. Since our ports are universal, they provide various transhipment opportunities. They can handle dry bulk as well as liquid cargo, break bulk, including containers, and general cargo transported by ferries and conventional general cargo. We have been rapidly developing and adjusting to ever changing conditions on the market. Being one of the largest investors in the region, we are a natural driver for the development. It would not be possible if it was not for the access to EU funding. Well prepared applications attracting millions of euros and a model utilization of the funding help the ports of Szczecin and Świnoujście offering increasingly better conditions for their customers. Recently, the Ports Authority has completed a large investment package during the EU 2007-2013 budget period. The package prioritized water and land side accessi - bility to the ports. The package helped developing new and rebuilding existing quays aimed at handling larger vessels. Ad - ditionally, the quality and safety of handling land based modes of transport significantly improved. The development involved modernizing rail infrastructure, rebuilding roads in the port and building new car parks for trucks. We focused our attention not only on infrastructure, but we took due care of safety and protection of port basins. We now have modern measurement and life-saving equipment. But challenges faced by the Szczecin and Świnoujście are many. Projects planned in the 2014-2020 EU budget period are mainly related to improving access to the ports. The planned extension of the port infrastructure will adjust berths to handle larger vessels. Plans also include the building of new deep berths in Szczecin and in Świnoujście. This should also increase the intermodal transport handling capacity. Projects improving road, rail and inland waterway network accessibility will be an important driver for growth in the two ports. The completion of the S3 expressway and modernization of CE-59 and E-59 railway lines will provide for improved links with the hinterland. Enhanced accessibility from the sea, through dredging of the access channel to Świnoujście to 14.5m and the Świnoujście–Szczecin fairway to do 12.5m will ensure better flexibility in handling of sea transport. A huge potential rests in the shipping capacity of the Oder River which is going to be improved as well. The ports of Szczecin and Świnoujście are the only in the country playing the role of sea and inland ports in the TEN-T network. Already today, barges are used for transit transport passing through Szczecin and Świnoujście and going to major economic centres in the region of Berlin and Brandenburg. Improving the navigability of other stretches of the Oder River will boost the development of the ports. All this will enhance competitiveness of the port complex. Until 2020, the value of projects implemented and planned is estimated at PLN2 billion. Investments implemented together with port operators help the Szczecin and Świnoujście port complex meeting global standards. The cooperation leads to developing new terminal in the port and wider range of services provided. We have created ideal conditions for investors to develop and operate their own cargo handling terminals, provide logistic services and establish port industry. With over 140 ha of investment land available, ports of Szczecin and Świnoujście have become excellent locations attracting investment in sea cargo handling. We would like to provide you with competent staff, attractive investment sites and diverse opportunities for developing your businesses. We are looking forward to cooperating with you.
