| Czech government approves first stage of canal project linking Danube to North Sea |
| Prag, 07.10.2020 |
|
| The Czech government has approved the first part of a planned canal system connecting the Danube with the North Sea, Industry and Trade Minister Karel Havlíček announced on Monday. The total cost is expected to lie at around CZK 15 billion and construction could start after the year 2030. Unlike in the original plan, which counted on connecting the Danube, Oder and Elbe rivers, a study conducted by the Industry and Trade Ministry counts just on connecting the Danube with the Oder.According to one renaissance historian, the idea of connecting the Danube with the North Sea already began during the reign of Emperor Charles IV., with several plans being formulated in the subsequent centuries.
Over the past decade the project has been resurrected. In 2017 the responsible ministers of the Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia signed a memorandum on preparations for the construction of connecting the Danube-Oder-Elbe rivers. Now the project has moved further, according to Czech Minister of Industry and Trade Karel Havlíček, who tweeted Monday that the first stage of the canal’s construction has been approved by his government.
