Paragraph: 133
Coastal shipping and inland waterways have been overlooked within Maritime 2050.
Conclusion
Coastal shipping and inland waterways have been overlooked within Maritime 2050. We agree with the sector that this is a missed opportunity. To fully harness the UK’s competitive advantage, the Department for Transport should undertake its promised research into the potential for coastal shipping and inland waterways, which should be seen as an area of growth for domestic seafaring jobs.
