NEED  AND  ADDED  VALUE  FOR  THE  DANUBE  REGION  STRATEGY

The Călăraşi port is located on the Danube River, at the junction of two pan-European transport corridors (Corridor IV and Corridor VII), and with direct connection to Danube – Black Sea channel. There is growth potential at the Călăraşi Port, if the river traffic could be carried out to a greater extent by the large industrial units in the region with the increase in the port’s capacity to handle cargo.

Călărși port is part of the TEN-T comprehensive network.
