Waterways transport Sustainable hybrid - a Modern Day solution to transport problem

1.0 Introduction

In today's transport congestion and air pollution on shore infrastructure issue is a concern and more moderate growth in an increasingly negative the size of the technical problem for the purpose of formulating policy air-path integration of the sea By focusing on transportation by sea, and integration with the road and put the issue of air transport increased demand multimodal turn a lever for the need to focus on a number of shortcomings related to the use of ships for the community and the transport of goods in collaboration with other mode of transportation. To facilitate the implementation of the policy for the use of river transport, the large number of research and actions of technical development relating to inland water is needed. Some of this could include a concerted effort on the short sea shipping, to identify some problems in structural or generic use of ships to transport relatively short distances and other targets that impact on the environment and issue of increasing safe and efficient intermodal transport reliability. In addition, the hybrid use of transport will require the intelligent transportation system which incorporates the use of advanced integrated control of ships, the AIS and the extensive use of information technology needed to solve the problem of modern transportation.

the inland waterway, or in moving people and goods in a sustainable manner is increasingly important, will be one of the biggest challenges for the 21st century, a time when pressure on the environment call sensitive reactions, the adoption of new innovative behavior proactively to link factors in the design, construction and operations and use them to meet the needs inherent response. Action associated with the mitigation of human life has always been a preoccupation of decision making, but to a lesser extent. In a world where nature keeps on the need for awareness and sensitivity, so made the way nature is important for sustaining life and how much damage was reckless human activities cause an imbalance in our planet. A situation that is deeply threatening to our factory today and bands hope for our future survival of this planet generation, a situation which is also called for us all to adopt the new philosophy of doing things, and giving an overview of the inevitable return to nature means doing things earlier - the use of sun, water and storing clean energy in the crust to the use of river transport. Past engineering work on the tracks have been dominated by the reactants, and in the world today has reached a toll where there is no chance of waiting for accidents that result is degradation of the environment in form of points or instant calamity.

There is an insurmountable obstacle to achieving a sustainable multimodal inland water transport, where the environmental impacts and risks will be mitigated and integration components of water use will be used. However, overall framework for integrating systems engineering tools and return system with the identification and analysis of alternative pathway leading to short and long term solutions to this problem can facilitate the management of quality philosophy of the development of new sustainability [2]. These alternatives after deduction of environmental concerns could accommodate a growing integration of inland navigation for transport of containers, including the development of blocking, intermodal, information technology solutions, provisi.
