New Traffic Separation Scheme “In Bornholmsgat”

 (Reference chart: German Chart No: 40 (6th Edition, 1998)

Note: This chart is based on World Geodetic System 1984 Datum (WGS-84))

The new traffic separation scheme (TSS) “In Bornholmsgat” consists of:

  Two traffic lanes 2.7 miles wide in three parts;
  One intermediate traffic separation zone 0.8 miles wide in three parts;
  Two associated inshore traffic zones;
  One precautionary area between the three parts.

The direction of navigation is:

  TSS, main part between Sweden and Bornholm: 038° (T) northeastbound course and 218° (T) southwestbound course; and
  TSS, south-west part: 071° (T) and 038° (T) northeastbound courses and 218° (T) and 251° (T) southwestbound courses; and
  TSS, west part: 093° (T) eastbound course and 273° (T) westbound course.
