Samskip Supports the Modal Shift<\/h2>\n<\/div>Modal shift<\/strong> refers to a change in transport mode or solution from one type of transport to another. Freight transport can take different forms, such as:<\/p>\n\n- From road transport to rail<\/span><\/li>\n
- From road transport to inland or coastal waterways<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
In addition to environmental benefits, modal shift helps reduce CO\u2082 emissions and lowers accident rates, which are more likely to occur in road transport.<\/p>\n
Reliability is another key advantage of modal shift. Road transport is often affected by traffic congestion, whereas rail and sea transport offer more reliable and predictable schedules.<\/p>\n
Today, the objective of modal shift is to achieve long-term cost efficiency by investing in more sustainable modes of transport.<\/p>\n<\/div>
