Coastal Shipping and Combined Transport Roundtable
Some regions now have maritime cabotage services that are fully integrated into door-to-door freight transport services. Participants in the Roundtable examined efficient combined transport and research into possible ways to reduce the cost of multimodal freight transport, including reducing terminal/port costs and those of first and last-mile transport. This is expected to reduce the carbon footprint of freight transport by encouraging modal shift from road freight toward rail and maritime freight.
