ILCO – Integrated logistics network for Combined Transport (in Austria)

Abstract

Combined Transport only partially meets today’s market requirements in Transport sector compared to road transport. A large number of involved players lead to a complicated cascade of information flows. Within Austrian borders the transport volume in unaccompanied Combined Transport (UCT) suffers of stagnation, however on high level compared to other European countries. Analyses show that up to 5.4 m t (long distance, CT-affine groups of goods) of 345 m t inland road transport volume in 2015 can be shifted to UCT. A geographical context based on O/D-matrices shows routes of high potential for UCT, i.e. between Vienna and Upper Austria. Finally a business model, supported by a software architecture for a routing service including pre- and post-carriage could help to lower the barriers for shippers to enter the Combined Transport market.
