This analysis focuses on issues related to the operation of bimodal (rail-road, rail-rail) and trimodal (river-rail-road) combined terminals. In accordance with the recommendations of the commissioning party the City of Bydgoszcz, the analysis does not take into account the air and sea transport. The results of the analysis are to be used in the process of creating Bydgoszcz - Solec Kujawski multimodal platform accompanied with the necessary technical and organizational facilities. From a spatial point of view, this analysis focuses on the European transport market with particular emphasis on the Baltic Sea Region. The analysis covers technological and process issues of combined transport and it discusses technologies currently used or, which according to the authors, have a chance for future development. Model examples of intermodal terminals are presented, taking into account infrastructure elements, transhipment (handling) equipment as well as terminal processes. This scope of the analysis is aimed at identifying various types of measures to improve the operation of terminals in BSR. As the result, the indicators for monitoring and improvement the quantitative and qualitative nature of terminal processes are presented. The report consists of five chapters, the first of which focuses on creating a full classification of combined transport terminals. The next two chapters identify infrastructure elements and equipment necessary for the functioning of combine transport terminals. The fourth chapter focuses on terminal processes, distinguishing the process of handling loading units and the process of handling means of transport. The last, fifth chapter presents measures of transhipment and organisational efficiency of combined transport terminals. As part of the analysis, the following definition of combined transport was adopted1: "Intermodal transport, in which the majority of travel is made by rail, inland or sea waterways, and all initial and / or final road sections are as short as possible." At the same time, this definition requires clarification of the concept of intermodal transport, which is a form of transport using at least two transport modes for the carriage of cargo in the form of an intermodal transport unit (ITU), also known as an intermodal cargo unit. This intermodal transport unit can be a standard container, a swap body, a semi-trailer or an articulated vehicle, provided that the transhipment of the cargo themselves when changing means of transport is not performed. Often the articulated vehicle is also treated as a type of ITU. Intermodal transport assumes full organizational and technical cooperation, among others in the field of documentation, technology or organization of the movement of an intermodal transport unit in the logistics chain. 1 Combined Transport Directive 92/106/EEC, European Commission, SWD(2016) 141 final ANALYSIS OF COMBINED TRANSPORT TERMINAL OPERATIONS Page 3 / 73 1. Classification of combined transport terminals 1.1. Types and categories of terminals In the narrowest sense, the combined transport terminal is an infrastructure point where the intermodal load unit is moved from one mode of transport to another. In a broader scope, the combined transport terminal can be described as a hub in the transport or logistics network, in which it performs many additional functions besides the basic transhipment function (e.g. consolidation, storage, forwarding). Due to the fact that combined transport terminals may differ significantly from each other, their multi-criteria classification is necessary. The following classification was created based on literature sources2 and the expert knowledge of the authors of the analysis. The classification was created according to predefined assumptions, while enabling the matching of any combined transport terminal to each of the indicated categories of classification. In the further part of the analysis this possibility was shown on the basis of selected sample terminals. The developed classification of combined transport terminals will take into account nine categories of classification: 1. Classification by type of transhipped units: 1.1. container terminals, 1.2. terminals handling containers and swap bodies, 1.3. terminals handling containers, swap bodies and semi-trailers, 1.4. terminals handling semi-trailers, 1.5. terminals handling articulated vehicles (tractor and semi-trailer). 2. Classification by terminal transhipment capacity: 2.1. small terminals (less than 25000

  • Promoting Intermodality in the Alps.Pdf
    Promoting Intermodality in the Alps Preliminary Conclusions of the Work Initiated Since the Conference of Regensburg At the Regensburg Conference the ministers instructed the Steering Committee to directly follow the progress of the measures that have been initiated to promote alternatives to road transport in the Alps and to advance intermodal freight traffic. These measures combine the optimisation of existing railway lines, the realisation of new, more suitable possibilities of crossing the Alps by rail and the establishment of specific financing mechanisms to take account of the considerable public investments. These political measures are being developed in particular within the framework of the European Union’s Trans-European Network Programme and the agreements between the EU and Switzerland regarding land-based transport. The expected modal transfer does not have the same weight for the various Alpine countries: While in Switzerland only 37% of freight transports are carried by road, the figure for Austria is 69% and for the French-Italian crossings 83%. The scale of the challenge is therefore not the same. Optimisation of Major, Cross-Border Railway Lines The forecasts for new, transalpine railway infrastructures up to 2022 cannot suffice to meet the goals of intermodality. Firstly, because the quality of the infrastructures must be supported by at least a corresponding quality of railway services, and also because all continuing damage to existing lines by the tracks endangers the subsequent balance of these investments. However, the major Alpine crossings support trade routes on a European scale. The improvement of services on each corridor and the progress of network interoperability must be agreed between several countries.

  • Increasing Capacity Utilization of Shuttle Trains in Intermodal Transport by Investing in Transshipment Technologies for Non- Cranable Semi-Trailers
    Proceedings of the 2016 Winter Simulation Conference T. M. K. Roeder, P. I. Frazier, R. Szechtman, E. Zhou, T. Huschka, and S. E. Chick, eds. INCREASING CAPACITY UTILIZATION OF SHUTTLE TRAINS IN INTERMODAL TRANSPORT BY INVESTING IN TRANSSHIPMENT TECHNOLOGIES FOR NON- CRANABLE SEMI-TRAILERS Ralf Elbert Daniel Reinhardt Chair of Management and Logistics Technische Universität Darmstadt Hochschulstraße 1 Darmstadt, D-64289 Darmstadt, GERMANY ABSTRACT For shuttle trains with a fixed transport capacity which are the dominant operating form in intermodal transport, increasing capacity utilization is of crucial importance due to the low marginal costs of transporting an additional loading unit. Hence, offering rail-based transport services for non-cranable semi-trailers can result in additional earnings for railway companies. However, these earnings have to compensate for the investment costs of the technology. Based on a dynamic investment calculation, this paper presents a simulation model to evaluate the economic profitability of transshipment technologies for non-cranable semi-trailers from the railway company’s perspective. The results depend on the capacity utilization risk faced by the railway company. In particular, if the railway company does not sell all the train capacity to freight forwarders or intermodal operators on a long-term basis, investing in technology for the transshipment of non-cranable semi-trailers can be economically profitable. 1 INTRODUCTION Freight volume is predicted to increase in the years to come and the majority of this growth is expected to even increase the road freight transport volume. According to forecasts the total road freight transport volume in the European Union will grow to 2442 billion ton kilometers (tkm) in 2030 which is an increase of 43% compared to 2005 (Rich and Hansen 2009).

In the last decade, rail markets share has increased in some countries because of deregulation, investments in rail and truck fees, but is still very low in many countries. In the new member states the markets have decreased rapidly when rail monopoly has been taken away. Rail deregulation has not been implemented in practice in all countries while at the same time truck deregulation has been implemented fully and resulted in a low-cost truck market. Moreover, the cost of external effects has not yet been implemented. Most forecasts show an increase of 60% in total freight demand by 2050 and an approximately constant market share with a business-as-usual scenario. To fulfil the targets in the EU white paper, it is necessary to roughly double rails’ market share from 18% in 2011 to at least 36% in 2050. This means that the tonne-kilometres will be 3.6 times as much as today and 2.4 times as much as in a business- as-usual scenario in 2050.

  • Finished Vehicle Logistics by Rail in Europe
    Finished Vehicle Logistics by Rail in Europe Version 3 December 2017 This publication was prepared by Oleh Shchuryk, Research & Projects Manager, ECG – the Association of European Vehicle Logistics. Foreword The project to produce this book on ‘Finished Vehicle Logistics by Rail in Europe’ was initiated during the ECG Land Transport Working Group meeting in January 2014, Frankfurt am Main. Initially, it was suggested by the members of the group that Oleh Shchuryk prepares a short briefing paper about the current status quo of rail transport and FVLs by rail in Europe. It was to be a concise document explaining the complex nature of rail, its difficulties and challenges, main players, and their roles and responsibilities to be used by ECG’s members. However, it rapidly grew way beyond these simple objectives as you will see. The first draft of the project was presented at the following Land Transport WG meeting which took place in May 2014, Frankfurt am Main. It received further support from the group and in order to gain more knowledge on specific rail technical issues it was decided that ECG should organise site visits with rail technical experts of ECG member companies at their railway operations sites. These were held with DB Schenker Rail Automotive in Frankfurt am Main, BLG Automotive in Bremerhaven, ARS Altmann in Wolnzach, and STVA in Valenton and Paris. As a result of these collaborations, and continuous research on various rail issues, the document was extensively enlarged. The document consists of several parts, namely a historical section that covers railway development in Europe and specific EU countries; a technical section that discusses the different technical issues of the railway (gauges, electrification, controlling and signalling systems, etc.); a section on the liberalisation process in Europe; a section on the key rail players, and a section on logistics services provided by rail.

  • The Alpine Rolling Highway
    Interview with Ludwig Näf, CEO of RAlpin AG The Alpine rolling highway The Swiss government has passed laws to protect the majestic beauty of the Swiss Alps and supports RAlpin’s rolling highway through government subsidies Switzerland’s position as a transit country on the important north-south trade axis through Europe places a heavy burden on its road transport infrastructure. An astonishing 600,000 heavy goods vehicles pass through the Alpine Republic each year. In the mid-1990s, efforts to shift the passage of goods through the Alps away from the roads and onto other modes of transport were enshrined in legislation. 35 years later, RAlpin AG ensures that one in six of these trucks crosses Switzerland without using its roads. International Business spoke to Ludwig Näf, CEO of RAlpin AG about how this has been achieved and what the future holds.
