Intermodal transport and modal shift

Economic, social and environmental sustainability can only be achieved with an integrated transport system. When water, road and rail transport work together, the comparative advantage of each mode can be exploited optimally. For example, containerization, which allows for multi-modal transportation of goods, has enabled stakeholders to benefit from the advantages of different modes of transport. Integration of transport systems is a complex task with many dimensions.
