Abstract
The aim article was to evaluate and compare certain statistics regarding inland waterway shipping in Poland. The authors of the analysis were particularly interested in the number of carried passengers and available passenger capacity in 2010-2014. What is more, the general characteristics of the inland waterway shipping in Poland were outlined, including examples of the main projects funded or co-funded by the European Union. The 2010-2013 secondary data from the Central Statistical Office was used to create a multi-dimensional statistical analysis, including such phenomena as the absolute and relative value increase, phenomenon change patterns, individual single-base and chain dynamics indices. It was noted that, in comparison to 2010, the number of passengers were increasing from 2011 to 2013. The research also proved that with the EU financial support, inland shipping in Poland and in the kujawsko-pomorskie province has a strong development potential. Transport is one of the fast-developing branches of the country's economy, and there is still a growing demand for its services. However, the role of passenger transport should receive more attention.
