6 Multimodal Transport - Problems Infrastructure and transport equipment: the lack of consistent networks and interconnections (missing infrastructure sections, for example), forces transfer costs onto the operators; each mode within the current system is financed and managed separately. The responsibility for strengthening the links between those modes is thus difficult to establish; the inability to operate between and within modes, such as differing railway signalling systems, causes problems; the differing sizes of load-carrying unit between one mode and another are not harmonised; 6

7 Multimodal Transport - Problems Infrastructure and transport equipment: West East 7

8 Multimodal Transport - Problems Services and regulations aimed at the modes: the absence of harmonised electronic communication systems among the various operators within the intermodal sequence prevents adequate scheduling; different national rules and regulations for various modes of transport; where cargoes are damaged the responsibility is difficult to establish since the various transport modes involved are governed by different international conventions; administrative bottlenecks impair the competitiveness of intermodal transport. 8

9 Multimodal Transport - Problems 9 Operations and infrastructure use, and in particular that of terminals: certain services such as vehicle identification or productive information systems are unavailable in intermodal situations; the various transport modes give unequal performance and service quality; commercial information and practices are not always coordinated among the various modes; terminals cannot always adapt to train and ship timetables that are operated round the clock, while the working hours of drivers and crews are not always suited to intermodal operations; the timetables for the various modes are not harmonised;

12 Multimodal Transport Containers, swap bodies and semi-trailer are the future mean of production - MM Transport as Part of the Logistic Chain Areas with access to mass transport infrastructure (rail, inland navigation) will significantly gain - Access Points to MM Transport are Essential Free access (KISS keep it simple + stupid); e.g. direct access of long distance freight trains (e.g. BASF or Rotterdam) - MM Transport has to be Simple for Everyone 12

13 MM Transport as Part of the Logistic Chain 13

14 MM Transport as Part of the Logistic Chain 14 UIRR 2007

15 MM Transport as Part of the Logistic Chain 15 UIRR 2007

16 MM Transport as Part of the Logistic Chain 16 European Commission, DG TREN, GROWTH programme

17 MM Transport as Part of the Logistic Chain Multimodal logistics Essential for accessibility and economic prosperity But poor participations in Priority 2: Improving accessibility of and within Central Europe, Multimodal Logistics (Aol 2.2) 17

18 Multimodal Transport Containers, swap bodies and semi-trailer are the future mean of production - MM Transport as Part of the Logistic Chain Areas with access to mass transport infrastructure (rail, inland navigation) will significantly gain - Access Points to MM Transport are Essential Free access (KISS keep it simple + stupid); e.g. direct access of long distance freight trains (e.g. BASF or Rotterdam) - MM Transport has to be Simple for Everyone 18

19 Access Points to MM Transport are Essential for a country Definition of locations of freight villages within a country or region within a limited area Finding the most appropriate location within a predefined local area Rough planning Definition of areas (e.g. transhipment, logistics area, etc.) Detailed planning Exact planning of all infrastructure (e.g. railway infrastructure, road, etc.) Planning of operations and services 19 Exact planning of all services (e.g. opening hours, etc.)

20 Access Points to MM Transport are Essential Example: Gliwice Port Freienbrink Wustermark Großbeeren Frankfurt/Oder Gądki Konin Leipzig-Wahren Dresden-Neustadt Glauchau Dresden-Friedriechstadt Gliwice Port for a country within a limited area Rough planning 20 Detailed planning Planning of operations and services

22 Access Points to MM Transport are Essential Excellent rail and inland waterway connections for a country within a limited area Rough planning 22 Detailed planning Planning of operations and services

23 Multimodal Transport Containers, swap bodies and semi-trailer are the future mean of production - MM Transport as Part of the Logistic Chain Areas with access to mass transport infrastructure (rail, inland navigation) will significantly gain - Access Points to MM Transport are Essential Free access (KISS keep it simple + stupid); e.g. direct access of long distance freight trains (e.g. BASF or Rotterdam) - MM Transport has to be Simple for Everyone 23
