Intermodal Transport

Intermodal transport refers to using multiple modes of transportation to move goods from one place to another. For example, a shipment may start its journey by truck, then be transferred to a train for a longer distance, and finally complete its trip by another truck to reach its destination. This method combines the strengths of different transportation modes—trucks for short distances, trains for bulk and long distances—optimizing efficiency, cost, and environmental impact. It enhances flexibility and reliability in logistics, ensuring that products reach consumers swiftly and safely.
