a. Energy Efficiency
Inland Barges moves longer distances considering the same amount of cargo and the same amount of consumed fuel

Highway trucking is intermixed in traffic with automobiles and, in urban areas, with pedestrians.
Rail shipment involve large number of massive units traveling at high speed.
Waterway environment has few crossing junctures and is remote from population centers.
Hazardous cargoes have more protection when transported using barges.
b. Safety
![Page 8: Alexandria University Faculty of Engineering Naval Architecture & Marine Engineering Dept.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/5513cbe555034646298b4eb6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Congestion wastes valuable energy resources and increases personal trip time
Waterway industry has met the increase in additional cargo demand by building fewer tow boats with greater horsepower
Rail also operates on a dedicated right-of-way so it have no congestion problem but it can cause serious congestion problems for others
c. Congestion

Each tow added to our Egyptian inland fleet will replace 900 trucks moving on our high ways

d. Air / Noise pollution
Vessels produce 33 % less pollutants than diesel trains and 373 % less than diesel trucks
Again, road traffic is, by far, the dominant source of pollutant emissions.

e. Land use / Social impact
•While trucks and trains, to a degree, operate much closer to populated areas, barges quietly make their way along isolated waterways for most of their trip.
•With some rail lines passing through major urban areas, the attendant noise impacts are experienced by nearby residents

A 826% increase in fuel use annually A 709% increase in exhaust emissions annually A 5,967% increase in probable accidents each year The need to annually dispose of 2,746 used truck
tires, and An additional truck traffic load of 1,333 heavy vehicles each day in the study corridors
In an analysis carried out by the Illinois State Water Survey, U.S.A. in 1993 What was determined in the analysis was that a shift to trucks from vessels would cause:

Conclusion
Effective inland transport system is very essential for any economic growth.
Inland water transportation is a safe, quiet, virtually invisible transportation system and has the unique capability to carry tremendous amounts of cargo.
Inland water transportation is the most environmentally friend mode.
![Page 16: Alexandria University Faculty of Engineering Naval Architecture & Marine Engineering Dept.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/5513cbe555034646298b4eb6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
1. Canalizing and deepening the barges’ path in the River.
2. Construction and Maintenance of Dams and locks to ensure reasonable and constant depth of water as possible.
3. Construction of canals to be used mainly for water transport if the volume of commodity to be transported makes this possible from an economical point of view.
4. Construction of loading and unloading facilities
Responsibility of governmental authorities:

III. Now discussing an example of how the developed countries deal
with their waterways
![Page 18: Alexandria University Faculty of Engineering Naval Architecture & Marine Engineering Dept.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/5513cbe555034646298b4eb6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Europe has a finely-meshed network of navigable waterways.
It is difficult to think of a destination in Europe that cannot be reached by water.
![Page 19: Alexandria University Faculty of Engineering Naval Architecture & Marine Engineering Dept.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/5513cbe555034646298b4eb6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Every year more than 400 million tons (that is 400 billion kilos!) are transported by water. More than 60% of the total international cargo transport occurs by ship!

IV. ANALYSIS OF EGYPTIAN INLAND WATER
TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS
![Page 24: Alexandria University Faculty of Engineering Naval Architecture & Marine Engineering Dept.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/5513cbe555034646298b4eb6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
a. Classes of the Egyptian waterways
No country possesses a vast net of inland waterways like Egypt. In fact, every city, town and village lies on the river or one or more of its branches or existing navigable canals.
![Page 25: Alexandria University Faculty of Engineering Naval Architecture & Marine Engineering Dept.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051314/5513cbe555034646298b4eb6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

The Study predicted rise in the share of inland water transportation by the year 1985

• Unfortunately days has proved that these predictions were not correct

Personal CommentPersonal Comment
This weak participation of inland water transportation is not accepted at all as it costs our economy thousands of pounds every day
The decision makers ignore this mode completely when speaking about development of transportation
The role of the private sector is to be improved
