COMODALCE
The project “COMODALCE – Enhancing COordination on multiMODAL freight transport in CE”, led by the Port Network Authority of the Eastern Adriatic Sea, was co-financed by the programme Interreg Central Europe.
Project Objective
The freight transport sector in Central Europe was characterized by three main challenges hampering its competitiveness. An imbalanced level of hard and soft infrastructural development, both in terms of last mile bottlenecks and missing links among the main networks. A fragmentation of the institutional framework between ports/intermodal logistic nodes and public institutions and an insufficient communication and coordination between freight operators and the logistic nodes, especially in the port-inland interface.
COMODALCE aimed at improving coordination and competitiveness of the transnational multimodal transport sector through the innovative ICT solutions.
Within COMODALCE, partners elaborated territorial needs assessment of each region involved and an analyses of the present and future situation in order to test these outputs through concrete pilot actions. Exploiting new technologies and data exchange between different actors, the rail freight transport will become more efficient, facilitating the modal shift from road to rail, with positive effects in terms of pollution and emissions.
