INTERMODAL FREIGHT TRANSPORT

Intermodal freight transport refers to the movement of freight containers or vehicles using multiple modes of transportation without any handling of the freight when changing modes. The hyper connectivity of the global supply chain, increased fuel costs, security concerns, and changing policy issues have increased scrutiny on global transportation infrastructure. Can better management of existing infrastructure and broader considerations on future investments improve this industry?
