Work In Progress -- Intermodal Supply Chain Efficiency through Autoid Solutions Guthed, Arvid ; Borjesson, Hans
Utgivningsinformation: Bryssel ITS in daily life: 16th world congress and exhibition on intelligent transport systems and services, Stockholm 21-25 September 2009. Paper, 2009Beskrivning: 3 sÄmnen: Bibl.nr: VTI P1835:16 [World]Location: Abstrakt: The need for intermodality is stressed by policy makers to avoid congestion on roads and improve the environmental performance of transportation. Shifting transport flows from unimodal road transportation to intermodal transportation in port hinterland transit does also involve the potential advantage of cost reductions. The aim of intermodality is to facilitate transportation that is competitive on the transport market by combining comparative advantages of different modes. RAILPORT SCANDINAVIA is the Port of Gothenburg's business concept to formalize and structure the interoperability concerning intermodal railway transports for distribution and consolidation of unit load goods to and from the Port of Gothenburg. One part of the project concerns if and how Auto-ID technology can be utilized to create added business value for the involved supply chain parties between the port and inland terminals.| Aktuellt bibliotek | Status | |
