Barge transportation refers to the mode of transporting dry and liquid bulk commodities in a barge vessel (a flat-bottomed boat) through rivers and canals. Some barges have to be pushed or towed, while others are self-propelled. Barge transportation is a sustainable mode of transportation and is environment-friendly, with respect to emission of CO₂ (carbon dioxide) gases and energy consumption.

The report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the barge transportation market in Europe for 2017-2021. To calculate the market size, the report considers the volume of goods transported across the countries in Europe.

The market is divided into the following segments based on geography:

• Belgium
• Germany
• Netherlands
• Rest of Europe

According to the report, one driver in the market is minimal land use resulting in less cost of infrastructure. Trains occupy large space and trucks cause congestion in highways. In Europe, the road freight is constantly delayed due to traffic congestion. Loss of time due to traffic congestion on roadways leads to over 75% of the road freight being delayed, which directly impacts customers and vendors. Also, most railroads in Europe need to be upgraded as they cannot support heavy goods.           Hence, most shippers are turning to barge transportation for shipping their goods. Rail networks passing through urban areas and trucking operations across populated areas and highways are the disturbing elements that harm the environment around.

Further, the report states that one challenge in the market is barge transportation impacted by adverse weather conditions. Weather conditions play a significant role in water transportation, including inland marine transportation. Hurricanes occurring in the inland waterway systems impair the operating efficiencies of marine fleets. Such adverse weather conditions delay, divert, or postpone shipments of products. Such incidents also negatively affect the performance and efficiency of barge fleets, limit night movements, and dictate horsepower requirements.
