Transportation is one of the most critical—and costly—components of any supply chain. Businesses today are increasingly turning to multimodal transportation to balance cost efficiency and delivery reliability.
What Is Multimodal Transportation?
Multimodal transportation involves using more than one mode of transport—such as road and rail—under a single logistics strategy. Each mode is selected based on distance, cost, urgency, and cargo type.
Why Businesses Are Adopting Multimodal Logistics
Relying on a single transport mode often leads to higher costs or delays. By integrating road and rail, businesses gain flexibility and resilience in their supply chain.
Benefits of Multimodal Transportation
- Cost Optimization: Rail transport reduces costs for long-distance movement.
- Improved Reliability: Alternative routes ensure continuity during disruptions.
- Better Coverage: Seamless first-mile and last-mile connectivity.
- Environmental Advantage: Rail and CNG-based transport reduce emissions.
