Companies choose to use the mode that provides them with the best solution for the market and environment in which they operate. However, changing markets, increasing concern over the environment (especially CO2 emissions), higher levels of congestion, rising fuel prices, and changes in taxation and direct grants for certain freight movements, all mean that the boundary between which mode provides the best economic and environmental solution is changing. Historically this has always been the case. For example, the development of the rail network in the mid-nineteenth century fundamentally altered the balance between rail and narrow-gauge canals, and we may well be in a period when a similar process is more noticeable now than in the recent past. Freight operators are increasingly looking for opportunities to reduce costs, improve service and reduce their impact on the environment so these variables are understood and are being acted upon. Therefore, when choosing the most efficient and sustainable freight solution, a customer focused freight operator needs to look at all the different modal options possible before a route and mode are selected. Once the choice is made the performance of the new freight service must be kept under close scrutiny to make sure that the chosen option remains the best solution given changing circumstances. It is important that sustainability and profitability are not seen as mutually exclusive goals. The Aim of the Guide This guide aims to explain to freight transport providers and users of transport services, via practical steps, how to approach a consideration of the use of rail or water transport as part of their supply chains in the UK. The guide: • Explains in simple terms the water and rail freight sectors • Shows examples of where rail or water services can be used successfully • Helps you to make a decision on modal shift for a particular transport leg • Explains the availability of financial assistance such as grant funding What Is Multi-modal, Inter-modal and Co-modal Freight Transport? This guide defines multi-modal freight transport as operations where more than one mode of transport is used. Typically this might include road as well as rail or water transport. Multi-modal freight transport is often described as the use of more than one mode of transport in a supply chain. Within the UK, multi-modal freight transport is often employed by the use of road, water and / or rail. This is the context within which it is taken in this guide. Where multi-modal differs from inter-modal is in the operational specifics. The term Inter-modal is often associated with international container traffic. Inter-modal can use one or more modes, but crucially, the goods being transported are not handled each 8 time they change vehicle or mode. For example, where containers are being transported inland Who Is the Guide for? from port via rail, the goods in the container are not handled, therefore the operation is inter- This guide is for anyone interested in modal. Equally, as the transportation comprises understanding if their transportation network or both water and rail transport, it can be described flows are suited to rail or water and whether this as multi-modal. ‘Modal Shift’ is appropriate for their business. If the same transport route was utilised for the To clarify this decision, the guide highlights the flow of coal, the coal would have to be ‘handled’ steps to be considered, the benefits to be gained, to remove it from the ship and into rail wagons; and uses case studies to illustrate examples. in this case, the flow is not inter-modal, it is only multi-modal. Structure of this Guide Co-modal is a term first used by the EU in 2006 The guide is constructed around the following and refers to the intelligent use of two or five chapters and utilises case studies to more modes of transport on their own and in illustrate points. Where the case studies are combination to get the biggest benefit from each concerned with rail they are displayed with a of them so that the overall journey is the most green background, where the case studies are sustainable that it can be.

  • Multi-Level Port Resilience Planning in the UK: How Can Information Sharing Be Made Easier? Technological Forecasting and Social Change
    Shaw DR, Grainger A and Achuthan K (2017) Multi-level port resilience planning in the UK: How can information sharing be made easier? Technological Forecasting and Social Change. Special issue on Disaster Resilience. Multi-level port resilience planning in the UK: How can information sharing be made easier? Duncan R. Shaw, Nottingham University Business School, Jubilee Campus, Nottingham, UK. (corresponding author) Email: [email protected], Tel: +44 (0) 115 8467756. Andrew Grainger, Nottingham University Business School, Jubilee Campus, Nottingham, UK. [email protected]. Kamal Achuthan, Centre for Transport Studies, Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering, University College London, [email protected]. Abstract Port resilience planning is a subset of the wider disaster resilience literature and it is concerned with how port stakeholders work together to make port systems more resilience. Port stakeholders include government departments, the port operator, ship operators, importers, agents and logistics firms. Ports are vital for the operation of cities and whole countries, especial island nations like the UK. Single port systems are multi-level systems with complex operational-level relationships and interdependencies. Additional levels to this include government and the policy-level. Preparing for the crises and disasters that might befall ports requires information sharing between stakeholders about key dependencies and alternative actions. The complexity of ports presents barriers to information sharing; as do commercial and political sensitivities. This paper uses a multi-level case study on the UK’s system of ports to propose an approach to information sharing that uses the subjectivity of information from a supplier’s perspective and from a user’s perspective to reduce barriers of complexity, confidentiality and political sensitivity.
