Intermodality plays a crucial role in the transport sector in Europe. It is particularly important for long-distance transport of non-bulk goods and in the hinterland traffic of container seaports. This second handbook shows how the intermodal transport industry has been making progress and successfully adapting to changing requirements and circumstances The articles are organized in 49 fact sheets clustered around five chapters. The book gives examples of practical intermodal transport development. Each factsheet presents its issue briefly but targeted and each is unique in scope. All fact sheets together create a good understanding of the most relevant issues and forces in the practice of intermodal transport development. The book is particularly valuable for training and education purposes. Deliberately opened to a large public, EIA and the EIRAC consortium give you the rare opportunity to consult it for free on our website* ! *please take note that no paper version will be issued

The Handbook Intermodal Transport in Europe is now available for only 49€

Why the first handbook on European intermodal freight transport?

Much has been said and reported about intermodal transport in Europe, but you will probably not find a comprehensive summary explaining “Intermodalism from A to Z” in a compact form, combined with concrete business fact sheets and written in English. This first handbook, including a foreword by Jacques Barrot, Vice President of the European Commission responsible for Transport, fills this gap and can be ordered now. It gives major insights into all aspects of Intermodal transport, from production and technology to quality, markets and policy issues. This new reference point for the intermodal industry includes contributions from China Turkey and the USA. Apart from the main explanatory text, about 50 additional fact sheets of successful intermodal players will give an insight regarding their strategy, experiences, services and products.

Sponsors and contributors of fact sheets: AAE, Ambrogio, Amrie, Polzug Intermodal GmbH, Port of Rotterdam, Rail Cargo Austria, ÖBB, Port of Taranto, OOCL and Via Donau and many others stemming from all transport modes, like HUPAC, KALMAR, STINNES, manufacturing industries (NIKE, Procter & Gamble), research dissemination entities (ExtraWeb), media (Cargo Systems), various professional transport associations and the EU Commission.

This user-friendly and colourful book also includes lots of pictures and graphs.

Perfect timing for the Handbook

Already for some years, the expectations, visions and ambitions about intermodal transport as alternative to the congested road transport have been high.

There are success stories, but there is much to achieve. Circumstances seem to be changing in favour of intermodal transport. The enlargement of the EU, the progress made in railway liberalisation, the political focus on the shortsea alternative, congestion and pricing in the road network all encourage the a review of logistics structures.

This will create new opportunities and therefore we expect that the next few years will be critical for the development of intermodal transport. With the handbook you will be equipped with a broad based understanding of intermodal transport, which by nature is complex.

Who can benefit from this handbook?

The handbook is aimed at all organisations in and around the intermodal transport industry.

It is written for all those with stake in the development of intermodal transport.

• Managers and staff in the logistics industry: freight forwarders, shipping lines, logistic service providers and all types of freight transport operators.
• Shippers involved in integrating intermodal transport in their supply chains.
• Public organisations or public private partnerships, active in the field of logistics, organisations with stakes in the development of infrastructure, logistic parks or in intermodal business development.
• Policy makers in the field of transport, logistics and regional development
• Suppliers to the intermodal transport industry.
• Financial institutions, which have interest in financing intermodal transport assets or infrastructure.
