Wilhelmshaven planning tool
Belgium-based Ecorys has installed its “Intermodal Links” intermodal planner for Container Terminal Wilhelmshaven
The planner is designed to support Eurogate-operate CTW's efforts to achieve its growth targets. Logistics companies, says Ecorys, can save on costs and reduce their environmental impact by using intermodal transport to and from the port area.
The online planner shows the optimal route to almost all locations in Europe and helps unlock the intermodal hinterland of Wilhelmshaven.
The 16-track on-dock multimodal transport terminal in Germany's only natural deep water container port turns out to have more connections than expected with the new Intermodal Planner. It provides access to the schedules of 40 intermodal transport operators with direct and indirect connections to/from Wilhelmshaven.
This will "unlock" hinterland routes over Wilhelmshaven to-from around 160 intermodal terminals in 27 countries (21 in the EU and six in Russia, the Levant and North Africa).
The online planner will be launched officially during Intermodal Europe 2014, which takes place 11-13 November in Rotterdam.
