Summer navigation 2008 starts at the United Deepwater System from the Rostov-on-Don – Kochetkovsky hydraulic complex. Inland waterways are being prepared for summer navigation with repair works at certain complexes. Trial drawing of bridges started more than a week ago in St. Petersburg with official opening of Neva navigation scheduled for April 10. Last year, transportation by inland waterways grew by 9.5%. The results of the current year will depend on a number of factors including water level and dredging at different sections of inland waterways
