Shows intermodal connections
Port of Amsterdam has launched Port of Amsterdam Intermodal Planner, a digital transport planner that provides current information on intermodal line connections via short sea, inland navigation, rail and road.
The platform shows the range of transport possibilities available in Europe via the Amsterdam region. The aim is to enable even more efficient and easy planning and to increase cargo flows through the Amsterdam port region.
The online planner shows the possible intermodal routes to virtually all locations in Europe and makes it possible to find intermodal services providers for transporting cargo between 800 terminals in 45 countries. The planner calculates the optimum route from more than 11,000 direct connections.
Port of Amsterdam has had a new function developed for the intermodal planner that integrates pre- or post-transport by road with rail, inland navigation and short sea. If a direct intermodal route is not found, the planner will show alternative routes with extended pre- of post-transport by road so that users can still find an intermodal connection.
