River Traffic in the Republic of Croatia in the Function of Connecting Central Europe and the Mediterranean

Traffic connecting Central Europe with the Mediterranean as its natural way out on the warm sea, and further in the overseas territories, has long been considered as one of the priorities of this European space. In this sense, in the near past great efforts have been made in order to develop a transportation system that would enable the realization of such a project. First, roads were built, then railways and, later, air traffic. In the last twenty years, the project included the construction of Corridor Vc, which covers all aspects of traffic on the specified route. The plan is to build a route from Budapest to Croatia Adriatic Port of Ploce, and in Budapest, as its starting point, to continue to other corridors to the north, the Baltic, and to the northeast, the Russia. When speaking about the Corridor, always the road routes, and in some sense, the rail routes dominate. The question is how interesting other traffic routes, especially river routes are. As this question is still insufficiently elaborated, it will be the object of analysis in this work. The authors will try to determine how much river traffic route of Danube Pool can be integrated into the traffic system of Corridor Vc, and what would be its function in traffic connecting the above mentioned areas and the Mediterranean.
