AUTOMATION TOWARDS MULTIMODAL TRANSPORTATION AND INTEGRATION OF FREIGHT

In today’s global economy, efficient transportation of goods is essential for businesses and consumers alike. However, the integration and automation of transport systems faces significant challenges. Regulatory gaps and technological limitations hinder the seamless flow of cargo across various modes and hubs, leading to inefficiencies and increased costs. In this context, the EU-funded AutoMoTIF project draws on strategies, business models, and regulatory recommendations to foster interoperability among automated transport solutions. Through inclusive approaches, it ensures user needs are met, while aligning innovations with expectations. Real-world challenges will be simulated to develop a master scenario for end-to-end automated cargo delivery. The outcomes promise reduced emissions, congestion, and costs, while improving safety and working conditions.
