Abstract
The paper deals with SWOT analysis of Slovak rivers. Although Slovak Republic is situated in the Central Europe, waterways are relatively short and not branched. Inland waterway includes commercial, sporting and tourist navigations. Commercial navigation is limited by flow volume and length of floating period. For commercial navigation have Danube, Váh and Bodrog the best conditions. All three navigable rivers do not allow maximum stable immergence use of actual vessels during the whole year. Navigable conditions (curve radiuses, fairway width, navigable depth, flow rate, flowage) are changeable during the year.
Highlights
Commercial navigation is limited by flow volume and length of floating period
Slovak Republic is situated in the Central Europe, waterways are relatively short and not branched
Tonnage of vessels which are adequate to limited conditions and navigable length are from 800 to 1600t on Danube, till 600t on Vah and 450t on Bodrog
Summary
Slovak Republic is situated in the Central Europe, waterways are relatively short and not branched. Total navigable length of Slovakian rivers is 172 km of which Canals are 38,45km. Inland waterway transport is partly on rivers Váh and Bodrog and on river Dunabe (following AGN agreement marked as E-80), which belongs to TEN-T and is part of corridor VII and part of RHINE-MAIN-DANUBE waterway, but with time and local limitations. This water land allows connection to harbours in North and Black seas as well as connection to west European river lands net
