Описание: Much work has been done on port governance yet little has addressed inter-modal terminal governance, despite the clear similarities. This book fills that gap by establishing a governance framework for situating analysis of inter-modal terminals throughout their life cycle.

Описание: Freight Transport and the Modern Economy adapts a well-known textbook by Michel Savy, revising, extending and updating it for British, European and international readers. It deals not only with the technical aspects of transport, logistics and supply chain management, but also the interactions between transport professionals and the public authorities in the modern social, political, economic and environmental context. The transport of freight is presented as a system, mixing empirics and theory, showing how transport itself functions and also its strong influence on the modern economy, with a growing volume of production, turnover and employment. The nature of freight transport, an industrial process widely marketed as a service, is analysed in depth, explaining the main characteristics of the transport operation, its market and the regulatory context. The main actors, the professional actors (carriers, shippers and other agents) and the public authorities are introduced, and their behaviour and interactions are clarified. This comprehensive approach allows the reader to go further and consider in particular the approaches and practices of transport by carriers, customers, logistics managers, political decision makers and citizens, to tackle long range issues such as the ‘decoupling’ of production and transport recommended by some institutions and experts, and to explore the need for more infrastructure, or the capacity of the freight transport industry to reduce its contribution to pollution and climate change. This book treats freight transport as a whole system in its technical, economic, social, political and environmental context, in contrast to existing transport literature focused on individual aspects, such as transportation planning (usually for cars or passengers), logistics (essentially management issues), or individual transport modes. This book is comprehensive in its treatment of freight transport and in its use of multiple disciplinary perspectives.

Описание:
Intermodal Freight Transportation conceptualizes intermodal transport as a set of physical, logical, financial and contractual flows, examining the barriers that impact intermodal freight services and the resulting performance variables.
Intermodal Freight Transportation begins by discussing the overall freight transport market, covering transport modes, agents, as well as supply and demand patterns. It looks at the key drivers and trends influencing the freight transportation sector, analyzing the evolution of supply and logistics chains and the impacts of technological advancements such as autonomous vehicles and e-commerce.
The book looks at transport agents such as shippers, freight forwarders, integrators, and customs, as well as the demand for freight transport services and the key properties of goods. It examines key transport chains, comparing intermodal, multimodal, and combined transport concepts and architectures.
Intermodal Freight Transportation offers new tools for analyzing and building effective transport chains, depicting them as a set of component technology, information, responsibility, and financing dimension. It discusses the key organizational, regulatory, infrastructure, and technological barriers, focusing on measuring global performance and metrics. The book concludes with a look into the future of the freight transport sector.
Step-by-step approach introduces key topics for understanding efficient intermodal transportation
Based on the concept of fitness between the modes of transport profiles
Numerous real-world cases throughout
Examines performance metrics
