Synergies with Thematic Pole 7 projects 

 
 

The network of Danube Logistics Promotion Centres (DLPC), an essential outcome of the Danube SKILLS project, requires sufficient data and information related to Danube navigation. These elements (i.e. waterway infrastructure, ports/terminals, vessel operators) are necessary to inform commercial users of the transport sector about Danube navigation and its integration into logistics chains. In this context, the Danube Logistics Promotion Centres have to identify relevant projects dealing with transport infrastructure and/or transport logistics issues in the Danube corridor and exploit synergies.
