Good Navigation Status (GNS) is a concept to improve the European
waterways to be part of a
sustainable transport system
European Commission aims to promote and
strengthen the competitive
position
of inland waterways in the transport system, and to facilitate its
integration into the intermodal logistics chain

In 2015 the European Commission asked a consortium to
further define
the GNS
together with the member states, river commissions and users
This GNS concept comprises so called
“hard” and “soft” GNS
components
,
GNS indicators
based on TENtec data and
minimum
standards of a process on GNS development
as well as a
GNS definition
Results are published on the Guidelines towards achieving a Good
Navigation Status*

In 2017, DG MOVE suggested to the CCNR to set up a
correspondence group
on this matter
Experts of 9 EU member states and representatives of the
Danube Commission, the International Sava River Basin
Commission and the Central Commission for the Navigation of
the Rhine participate
Output of the correspondence group and individual statements
by the group or its members express
expert opinion
and not
official positions of member states or river commissions

Proposal for a GNS comprises 3 different types GNS A, GNS B
and GNS C
These 3 GNS are considered equal in terms of quality of
navigation infrastructure
Based on the idea, that today at most European rivers,
maximum depth is already realized for all kinds of navigation
conditions

coherence of the
requirements
for inland waterways set up in the
relevant regulations.
Task 2:
Formulate adequate
requirements for IWW
taking into account
the different characteristics of waterways and propose
recommendations for the future policy
on TEN-T.
Task 3:
Formulate
proposals for the definition of GNS
and development of

The Good Navigation Status (GNS) initiative aims to improve European waterways as part of a sustainable transport system, promoting their competitive position and integration into intermodal logistics chains. European Commission guidelines outline requirements for inland waterways to meet CEMT class IV standards and maintain environmental compliance. The GNS concept, developed in collaboration with stakeholders, includes both hard and soft components, indicators, and minimum standards. Efforts focus on achieving a good navigation status through continuous improvements and adaptation to hydrology and morphology.

GOOD NAVIGATION STATUS | 1 / 10 | Background Background Good Navigation Status (GNS) Good Navigation Status (GNS) is a concept to improve the European waterways to be part of a sustainable transport system European Commission aims to promote and strengthen the competitive position of inland waterways in the transport system, and to facilitate its integration into the intermodal logistics chain
GOOD NAVIGATION STATUS | 2 / 10 | Background Background Union guidelines for the development of the trans-European transport network (EU 1315/2013, Art. 15 (3)) a) Rivers, canals and lakes comply with the minimum requirements for CEMT class IV inland waterway and there is continuous bridge clearance a) Draught not less than 2.50 m and minimum bridge clearance heights not less than 5.25 m b) Rivers, canals and lakes are maintained so as to preserve good navigation status, while respecting the applicable environmental law
GOOD NAVIGATION STATUS | 3 / 10 | Background Background Guidelines towards achieving a Good Navigation Status In 2015 the European Commission asked a consortium to further define the GNS together with the member states, river commissions and users This GNS concept comprises so called hard and soft GNS components, GNS indicators based on TENtec data and minimum standards of a process on GNS development as well as a GNS definition Results are published on the Guidelines towards achieving a Good Navigation Status* * https://ec.europa.eu/transport/modes/inland/studies/good-navigation-status-guidelines-towards-achieving-good-navigation-status_en
