Abstract

In connection with the new focus on the European transport network TEN-T is very important to focus the logistics research on proposal of public logistics centres with access to the intermodal transport network. In terms of transport externalities and the capacity of existing transport infrastructure, for future transportation of goods within the EU are very perspective inland waterways and rail network. Especially for inland water transport, there are capacity reserves for the transport of other commodity flows. The Czech Republic prepares projects for full navigability of the river Elbe and Vltava, which will enable full navigability from Czech ports to the seaport of Hamburg and other northern European seaports. Inland waterway ports may become important intermodal terminals. During the project of a new public logistics centre in Pardubice, East Bohemia, which will be end port on the Elbe waterway, a new methodology of design was created and is described in this paper.
