FAQ
What does intermodal transport involve?
Intermodal transport involves moving freight using more than one transport method, such as road, rail, sea or air. Each stage is coordinated to ensure smooth transitions between modes. This approach helps support long-distance and international freight movements. It also reduces handling delays.
Why is road transport important in intermodal freight?
Road transport provides the connection between ports, terminals and final destinations. Without this link, freight cannot complete its journey. Coordinated road transport helps ensure timing aligns with other transport modes. This reduces delays and improves overall efficiency.
When is intermodal transport the best option?
Intermodal transport is well suited to long-distance, interstate or international freight movements. It is often used when goods arrive by ship, rail or air and need road transport for delivery. This method supports efficient movement across multiple regions. It is especially useful for import and export freight.
