This paper aims to trace the consequences of various global scenarios for the transportation system and the environment. After a review and the identification of four new world scenario's, the implications for sustainable transport are mapped out. The methodology is illustrated by means of a...

In this paper we analyse interregional freight transport movements in Europe with a view on new spatial patterns based on transport economic scenarios for environmental sustainability. Two different approaches are compared. viz. the logit model and the neural network model. The paper will...

Intermodality has become a major goal in modem transport policy. The improvement of combined transport within the European Union includes the refinement of the freight terminal services. A freight terminal is a nodal place where goods are transhipped between any two or more transport modes. In...

The quality of transport networks does not only depend on the quality of the individual links and nodes, but also on the way these nodes and links function in the context of (multimodal) networks. In the present paper we focus on multimodal trips where the railways are the main transport mode....
