- Conference Documentation -

Executive Summary The Mid-term Conference of the INTERREG Project “Alpine Innovation for Combined Transport – AlpInnoCT” took place on 9th May 2018 in Prien am Chiemsee, Germany, in combination with the 10th “Symposium Logistik Innovativ 2018”. The Mid-term Conference on 9th May was preceded by the 3rd AlpInnoCT Dialogue Event on 8th May 2018.

Primary goal of the AlpInnoCT project is to develop practice-oriented solutions to increase the efficiency and the productivity of Combined Transport (CT).

In future, CT can make an even greater contribution to sustainable mobility. To achieve ecological and cost-efficient transport as far as possible, the different modes of transport like road, rail, water and air must be optimally linked.

During the overall event, the interim findings and results of the AlpInnoCT project have been discussed and further developed with about 120 experts and representatives from the logistics industry, politics, science, NGOs and civil society.

Several parallel working groups focused on politics, infrastructure, terminal, operation, industrial know-how and digitalization. All with the aim of discussing concrete measures to increase the efficiency and environmental sustainability of freight transport across the Alps.

The conference participants discussed and defined “wishes” to improve Combined Transport as well as applicable measures to be implemented in the various processes of the transport chain and partly exemplary demonstrated in the two AlpInnoCT pilot corridors, while the conference concentrated on the Verona-Rostock relation.

Key messages of the Dialogue Event on the first day were:

Increase shift from road to rail through push measures and pull measures as, e.g. reducing railway infrastructure fees (announced for 2019 in Germany), investments into space and terminals.

Reduce access barriers in CT across all European countries. Develop a standard European language for freight transport.

Mind change is needed to incorporate CT (rail) in training and education, basic principles. Education and training does not provide any know-how of CT (rail) or not enough know-how

Develop concepts for CT (shippers and forwarders) that have not been available up to now.

Increase reliability in CT. Problem of lack of truck and train drivers in Germany, but also all over

Europe to sustain and expand CT. Digitalization of processes and related documentation.

The main findings and conclusions of the Mid-term Conference were:

Mind change by all involved actors of the CT chain was rated by almost all discussion rounds as one of the most decisive indicator, affecting almost all aspects of CT to achieve a shift of transport from road to rail, e.g. by creating a common sense between all stakeholders as well as standards, and to improve cooperation in general. This embraces e.g. the education and training sector by including and advancing the knowledge and benefits of CT in educational programmes and training schemes.

Communication - A big part of the solution approach is thinking beyond the limits of own business fields and borders. Joint discussion of the problems to find joint solutions in CT is the key. This involves also mutual understanding of the problems and positions.

Digitalization - In order to bring about a positive trend reversal in terms of logistics capability of CT, digitalization is seen as an important factor - customers expect certain qualities in a certain time; this must be optimized along the entire transport chain; digitalization can be a strong supporter. Digitalization refers to various aspects and can be implemented in short-term, as already available in different areas:

Page 4

Tracking and tracing is a measure that can be implemented in the short term; the information (location of the train e.g.) should be made available to all actors in order to increase the system reliability.

Communication between terminals, EVUs and infrastructure; competitive solutions are already available here.

Digitalization of documents as a next step in order to achieve paperless data exchange (as e.g. already standard in air transport and travel).

Automation of processes in order to open up new potentials in terms of logistic efficiency.

Also, new innovative solutions like NIKRASA (non-craneable trailers will be made craneable with few investments and few technical efforts) can be implemented in the short-term.

Harmonization and standardisation – in view of standards and access to all information of the whole transport chain and for all actors involved. A Pan-European language standard in rail transport is needed to overcome the barriers concerning both access to CT as well as the efficient handling of CT.

Vocational training delivers an opportunity to shift more freight traffic from road to rail by provision of know-how and improving the level of awareness among pupils and trainees. This will help to improve understanding of the complex transport system of CT. The provision of information and the qualification of logisticians and forwarding agents will help improving the Combined Transport market and enable to present customers with suitable transport offers.

Capacity expansion is seen as a key factor in view of terminal capacity as well as investments into terminal networks for economic efficiency in CT.

Artificial Intelligence is offering technologically interesting solutions from autonomous vehicles to the automation of manual processes or (complex) work routines, e.g. customs brokerage processes augmented by using AI or visual inspection of the logistics operational environment but these are future topics that will still be under research within the next few years.

European context - The idea is to develop a standardized European solution that can be transferred and applied all over Europe. It is very important to take on board legislation and particularly European legislation and explain the regulatory “jungle” that freight transport faces today.

1 Background Continued growth in traffic volumes leads to environmental problems. Especially the Alps are a sensitive ecosystem that has to be protected from pollutant emissions. In this case, Combined Transport (CT) offers an ideal approach to counteract these developments and shift goods from road to rail.

To advance and promote this environmental friendly transport method, it is necessary to increase the efficiency as well as the productivity of CT. Therefore, a strong partnership consisting of 15 public and private partners from Germany, Italy, Austrian, Slovenia and Switzerland initiated the project AlpInnoCT to develop measures and practice-oriented solutions to increase both the efficiency and productivity of Combined Transport (CT).

The AlpInnoCT Project is funded by the INTERREG Alpine Space Programme 2014 – 2020 with about 3 million Euros.

AlpInnoCT follows the approach to transfer production industry knowhow to CT (ideal to improve processes), which is a new approach that includes the analysis of existing strategies, policies and processes in CT. It helps to contribute to a sustainable system with an easier access to CT for all actors and promotes low-carbon transport in the Alpine region.

During the two-day event in Prien am Chiemsee, Germany, first interim results of the AlpInnoCT project were presented, discussed and further developed involving around 120 experts and representatives from the logistics industry, politics, science, NGOs and civil society.

The first day opened with a Dialogue Event and continued with the Mid-term Conference of the AlpInnoCT Project on the second day. The participants grouped into seven Round Tables to work in parallel groups focusing on politics, infrastructure, terminals, operation, industrial know-how and digitalization, the conference participants discussed and defined “wishes” to improve Combined Transport (CT) as well as applicable actions and measures to be implemented in the various processes of the transport chain and partly exemplary demonstrated in the two AlpInnoCT demonstration corridors Trieste - Bettembourg and Verona-Rostock.

The conference was combined with internal AlpInnoCT project meetings before the official conference start on the 7th in the afternoon and 8th May in the morning. As part of the event, the conference participants were invited to the state reception in the Hall of Mirrors at Herrenchiemsee Castle on the evening of 8th May.

The conference format was based on an innovative interactive approach mainly without unilateral frontal presentations, but focusing on discussion rounds in working groups.

Altogether, about 40 international high-level stakeholders worked during two days on solutions to one of Europe’s most urgent traffic problems: Alpine transit. First projects results were presented and evaluated by the conference participants.

To this aim, parallel working groups worked in so-called Round Tables on novel solutions that were organized by a moderator and a rapporteur who summarized the key statements.

Selected results and solutions of the Round Tables will be further taken up and advanced by the AlpInnoCT project afterwards. They will be partly tested in the two pilot corridors of the project: Trieste - Bettembourg and Verona – Rostock.

2 Day 1 - Dialogue Event, Tuesday 8th May 2018 The representative of the AlpInnoCT Lead Partner Bavarian State Ministry of Housing, Building and Transport, Dr. Karin Jäntschi-Haucke (StMB) and Karl Fischer (LKZ-Prien) as the host opened the AlpInnoCT Conference in the framework of the 10th Symposium Logistik Innovativ 2018 followed by a welcoming speech of the Mayor of Prien, Jürgen Seifert.

Opening of the conference (Photo LKZ)

Prof. Dr. Dirk Engelhardt (Managing Director of Bundesverband Güterkraftverkehr Logisitk und Entsorgung (BGL) e.V.) highlighted in his key note speech the general conditions for tomorrow’s transport market and the great importance of Combined Transport for the future of the logistics sector. Increasing transport volumes on roads is also due to the rising number of small-sized shipments – volume has grown from 12 to 25 parcels per year and capita. The share of trucks in road transport amounts currently to 70% and is expected to increase in future to even 80% with the consequences of even more congestion on the motorways. Prof. Engelhardt underlined the great importance of Combined Transport in counteracting these trends; otherwise we will face delivery bottlenecks that are in

Page 10

some cases already reality today. Solutions here are vital to promote medium-sized businesses and Combined Transport. As autonomous driving is not a solution in the medium-term (10 – 15 years) according to Prof. Engelhardt, truck and train drivers are still needed. However, there is a lack of drivers in Germany and Eastern Europe to sustain and expand CT – currently, about 220,000 truck drivers are required in Germany; one of the reasons for this development is seen in the payment (about 1,800- 2,000 €, gross) and the image of the profession.

2.1 Dialogue Event - format and structure

The AlpInnoCT Dialogue Event was opened by Jakob Dietachmair (Project Manager Economic Transition, CIPRA Lab GmbH) who explained in short the format of the Round Tables involving actors from economy, politics and civil society. Karsten Kessel (Bayernhafen GmbH & Co. KG) introduced the AlpInnoCT wish list that has been worked out within the project and which contains about 70 wishes that have been allocated to the different Round Tables of the conference for further discussion with the participants.

The participants divided into several groups to work in parallel in the interactive Round Tables on the fields of politics, railway companies, future trailer and wagons, forwarders, shippers and service providers for digitalization and innovations beyond Combined Transport with a high level for CT.

Round Table 1: Politics, associations and infrastructure

Moderator: Tim-Oliver Frische (DVZ)

Contributions from:

EUSALP & IMONITRAF! – MSc Patrick Skonierki, EUSALP AG4 Leader, Regional Government of Tyrol

Germany – Peter Lüttjohann, Head of the freight and logistics department, BMVI

Austria – Julia Elsinger, Department I/K4 – Combined Transport, bmvit Bavaria – Dr. Karin Jäntschi-Haucke, StMB

The discussion dealt with some general/organizational issues as lack of standards in CT / rail transport. Bavaria has a CT Plan 2025 for innovative solutions, invests annually 2 M€ to shift transport from road to rail. A bottleneck is the terminal network and lack of about 50 terminal areas (infrastructure) in Bavaria. Future trailer should become a standard trailer, independently of being craneable /non-craneable. In Austria, the share of rail in CT amounts already to about 30% due to high efforts in CT (Brenner Basis tunnel 2027). Interoperability was highlighted for rail transport that must be better coordinated on a European level to increase CT (documents, standards, language). Current developments and trends in freight transport have to be taken into account (e.g. IMONITRAF! in AT and CH).

Regarding technical aspects the discussion focused around the topics of reliability of rail transport in CT. Green Logistics is needed to reduce emissions by 20% until 2050 (CO2). Electrification will be advanced in the oncoming years in Germany (Italy and Switzerland already more advanced). Empty container management could help increasing freight transport/management efficiency. Digitalization measures in rail transport needed to ease and accelerate processes, e.g.

Round Table 1 collection of wishes on the sideboard (Photo SSP)

Page 12

electronic freight documentation (see also Mobility Package 3 of the EU, published in May 2018). Liability issues in CT are not as simple as in road transport; need for harmonization.

Last but not least the discussion dealt with awareness raising in CT and education and training. Networking and cooperation of the various freight transport modes is needed in the long-term. Implementation of platforms for concrete information and knowledge exchange is indispensable, such as implemented already by Brennergipfel or the EUSALP group; Bavaria is in the process of building up a transparent info platform for CT for companies. Increase awareness about CT seems vital by e.g. educational programmes on CT at professional schools (e.g. SGKV programmes).

Main items discussed/identified:

Introduction of a European infrastructure management. Provision of space for terminals Plan European terminal network Advance standardization of loading units Faster (average) speed of trains. Stimulus package rail for lower prices. Harmonisation and enforcement of push & pull measures in the EU at all

levels (e.g. financial, regulatory and fiscal support measures, liability). Intensified pressure of the German government on rail companies. Infrastructure investments

Round Table 2: Railway companies

Moderator: Mirko Pahl, CEO, TX Logistik AG.

The starting point of the discussion was why modal split of rail in the US amounts to 45%, while in Germany, for example, only to 17%. Profitability is one of the main aims apart from improved punctuality and reliability - longer trains and higher axles loads (22.5-30t) are needed on main TEN corridors (1,500 m trains are necessary for profitable operation); ECTS – Level 3 is already needed now although ECTS Level 2 has been under discussion for more than 20 years and not yet implemented completely.

Harmonization is needed in view of “one” language in the EU, as well as training on the job/during education and a standard language of public authorities in the EU. Moreover, a simplification of rules and standards is essential. The European perspective on main corridors is needed for timetable planning (design of schedules, dedicated tracks). But also investments are important - asset intelligence, i.e. higher investments into locomotives and wagons are needed as well as terminal capacities, where investments into IT are needed to improve capacities and processes.


Page 15

Main items discussed and identified:

Infrastructure Longer trains (>1,500m), higher axles loads (22.5 – 30t) are needed, as well as

higher CT profiles (P400). EU-wide higher investments along TEN corridors (higher average speed

120km/h). Financial support for extended construction works in Europe for the next

years. Sufficient investments into alternative route network in the TEN-network, e.g.

track length, last mile adaptation.

Technology ECTS level 3 on TEN corridors Investments into terminals

o Improvement/investment of (more) terminal capacities. o Improvement of approaching routes to terminals. o Reduction of throughput time in terminals (layout processes). o Intelligent and automatic train check of outgoing trains.

Operation Investments into operation and tools:

o Paperless processes. o Operational processes: common language, simplify route knowledge. o European harmonized timetable - construction of timetable, regular

timetables. o Creating systems for on-line timetables – automated suggestions. o EU standards reduction of complexity – technical documents, waste,

customs, dangerous goods, border controls. o Attractive system routes (24/7 operation). o Real time schedule (ELSTA Project).

Page 16

Assets Standardization of wagons (one wagon for all kinds of goods). Higher efficiency by multi-purpose approach of wagons. Asset intelligence investments (into wagons, locomotives).

o tracking and tracing; o according to required data.

Intelligent locomotive / “remote” locomotive. Date exchange/monitoring. Investment in

o e-hybrid/autonomous locomotives; o e-brakes; o automatic coupling.

Page 17

Round Table 3: Future Trailer & wagons

Moderators: Dipl.-Ing. Bernd Thiede (Technical expert for laod securing Combined Transport, Schmitz Cargobull AG). Jakob Öhrström (Director Centre of Competence Intermodal, CEO, VTG Rail Europe GmbH).

A main issue is the definition of interfaces. The respective associations are called upon to work on these topics here.


Technology

Future trailer – future wagon (who adapts to whom?). User friendliness for the driver. Standard compatibility in intermodal transport. Innovative wagon development. Standardization and legal framework conditions. Physical trends (bolts vs welding).

Process

Cooperation of all CT actors. What can be learned from the “road”. Increase of the trailer vs process in

terminals. Interface terminal. By crane. Digitalization in CT.


Page 18

Round Table 4: Forwarders

Moderator: Thomas Eberl (CEO, Eberl – Internationale Spedition GmbH und Co. KG).

Road is the benchmark; as medium-sized enterprises bear a high risk they usually choose the tried-and-tested option – the road. Reliability of the whole CT process is a main item.

“CT UBER” – could be a possible scenario (easy and comprehensive booking and placement services) to simplify the access to CT.


Benchmark “road”. Competitive products / services by rail companies. Railable trailers ex works/”trailer”-funding by national government. CT as model of cooperation. Lack of access to CT /too long pre-processing and booking times. Integrated solutions needed. Standard software (App). Information transparency (all processes).


Page 19

Introduction of a task force in the event network problems (such as “Rastatt”).

Introduction of electronic freight documents. Continuous tracking of the loading unit (on train, ship and truck). Reduced waste in transport process (e.g. long storage times of loading units

in the terminal). Standard for ILU check (trains and truck check-in) with standardized

documentation. Shorter stay of the loading units in terminals (storage time). Mainstreaming customs clearance and administrative controls (one stop

shop – for all controls) for faster customs clearance.

Page 20

Round Table 5: Shippers

Moderators: Marcus Wollens (Head of control production, logistics, controlling, WPS, BMW Group Regensburg). Andreas Tonke (Director Transport Management, BSH Hausgeräte GmbH).

A key word is customer-oriented production. Automotive production has changed considerably due to different emission regulations, engines etc. in the various countries. Main focus is on the customer (premium vehicles, selection of internal equipment up to 6 days before production). However, delivery on an hourly basis is impossible by rail, but indispensable for a customer-oriented production as in the automotive industry; therefore, the share of inbound rail transport is currently very low, outbound rail transport amount to about 1/3.

Cooperation between terminals and shippers is needed, including knowledge about CT possibilities among all parties involved (shippers, forwarders etc.). Shippers should also inform on CT possibilities themselves when applying for contracts. In general, there is a lack of knowledge on CT concepts, why common concepts should be developed that involve all parties concerned.

Overall delivery concepts are needed for terminal capacity utilization (24/7). Reliability is a main factor that needs to be guaranteed. A certain distance is required in CT (1,000 km, TEN-routes) to be profitable (problem of lack of drivers).


“If we manage to make a virtue out of necessity, very intelligent concepts can be achieved through cooperation between freight forwarders and terminal operators. At the moment I have the impression that everyone is waiting for the other to move.”

Andreas Tonke Director Transport Management, BSH Hausgeräte GmbH

Page 21


Harmonization / use 24/7. CT is often not requested in the tender specifications. Concepts for CT are not even developed in many cases. CT concepts should be discussed with freight forwarders and shippers. Bottleneck routes / intersections, particularly the Rhine route N/S. Knowledge of CT with shippers / should be part of education and training.

Round Table 6: Service providers for digitalization and innovations beyond CT with high potential for CT

Dr. Robert Kuttler (Managing partner, ifp consulting). Prof. Dr.-Ing. Uwe Clausen (Managing Director, Fraunhofer-Institute for

Material Flow and Logistics).

No standards exist neither for systems nor for the exchange of information, while at the same time a high number of stakeholders is involved in the process (problem of “data silos” and monopolies).


Track and trace. Digital documents. Implementation of a Pan-European

language standard in rail traffic. NIKRASA Affordable IoT devices. Process automation. Automatic trailer handling. Artificial intelligence (AI). Drones for train inspection.

Track and trace of containers (status quo in rail traffic: only locomotive is tracked):

Usage of track and trace data: o Use Case 1: Notification/assistant if something goes wrong. o Possible use case: AI applications via machine learning.

Material: Status and location often unknown (where is it/when will it arrive/any delays).

Information on daily basis enough (time and date).


Page 23

Artificial Intelligence

Logistics and transportation sector has enough data for AI applications. Main problem is the distribution of data, monopolies and data silos. How to proceed: Start with solving one specific problem. Scope: 5 – 10 years until market introduction. Next steps: Collect data and train systems.

Electronic freight documents

Status quo: A lot of paper in the whole process (e.g. fax). First steps concerning internal processes. Challenges: Officials, laws and exchange with partners.

Process automation

Scanning and steering of arriving of goods and trailers. Autonomous vehicles for specific tasks (e.g. handling).

2.2 Findings and main conclusions Day 1

At the end of the day, Alexander Ochs (Authorized Officer at Bayernhafen GmbH & Co KG) summarized the main results of the Round Tables of the first day together with Christian Runge (LKZ-Prien) and the Round Table moderators.

Key messages of the first day:

Increase shift from road to rail through push and pull measures as, e.g. reducing railway infrastructure fees (next year), investments into space and terminals.

Reduce access barriers in CT across all European countries. Develop a standard European language.

Mind change is needed to incorporate CT (rail) in training and education, basic principles. Education and training do not provide any know-how of CT (rail) or not enough know-how.

Develop concepts for CT ((shippers and forwarders) that have not been available up to now.

Increase reliability in CT.

Problem of lack of truck drivers in Germany, but also all over Europe.

Digitalization of processes and related documentation.

3 Day 2 – Mid-term Conference, Wednesday, 9th May 2018

Dr Karin Jäntschi-Haucke, deputy director of the transport department within the Bavarian State Ministry of Housing, Building and Transport (StMB), officially opened the AlpInnoCT Mid-term Conference as the representative of the Lead Partner. Dr Karin Jäntschi-Haucke underlined the importance of the CT in view of managing the increasing transport

volumes in the Alpine region; the shift to rail is indispensable as well as the improvement of the efficiency of Combined Transport at the same time.

An overview on the current status of the AlpInnoCT Project, the work done and the interim results received until today was given by Jürgen Neugebauer (StMB) highlighting the main aim of AlpInnoCT to improve CT in the Alpine Space by transferring, among others, know-how from other successful branches. Production know-how from industry especially suited for this purpose. In a first step, the processes in CT have been analysed. In a second step, experts from production know-how, who also know CT in detail are developing and deriving the transfer potential from industrial processes. This is a completely new approach that has not been investigated before.

To this aim the AlpInnoCT approach is based on three levels or pillars combining the different partners from administration, economy and science:

Page 26

AlpInnoCT – levels involved in the project

The first pillar is the strategic level – policy and administration – that sets the legal framework for CT as well as soft factors such as provision of funding. In summary, the actors of the strategic level take influence via the so-called push- and pull-measures.

The second pillar stands for the actors directly involved in CT – transport companies, rail companies, terminal operators etc. They are the most important actors here and contribute mainly through innovations in terms of organization or technology. They play a key role in the transfer of industrial processes in CT.

The third pillar involves all actors indirectly influencing CT, e.g. shippers and forwarders, who are the clients of CT. These are usually characterized by very tight specifications with regard to ramp times. The carrier must comply with these and delivers goods accordingly to the transshipment terminals; as a result peak times and avoidable rest periods occur although 24 hours operation would be possible on seven days a week. This means that some of the warehousing is transferred to the terminals, but also to the limited parking spaces available at our motorways.

Page 27

AlpInnoCT is now trying to bring about improvements for Combined Transport on all three levels. Wishes and complete lists for improvement in the three areas have been identified before by the project and further prioritised during the Dialogue Event. Concrete measures will now be implemented on the pilot relations of AlpInnoCT.

3.1 Conference format and structure

Based on the Round Table results achieved on the first day, Marko Just (LKZ-Prien GmbH) introduced the format of the Mid-term Conference.

On the first day, a pool of altogether 80 wishes was collected from the Round Tables on the first day (see Annex 2). They build the basis for the development of concrete measures developed during the Mid-term conference and which will be taken up directly by the AlpInnoCT Project afterwards. This was defined around the pilot corridor Bettembourg – Trieste; the starting point is the port of Trieste (RT 1)

Page 28

followed by the terminal operation (RT2) - Bettembourg as an end point. The Round Tables 3 and 4 handle the railway companies and the forwarders, who carry out the whole process. Horizontal topics like industrial know how to be transferred to CT focused in RT 5. Future trailer (RT6) handles the cargo units that have to fit with CT. Digitalization and start-ups were discussed in RT 7.

Each Round Table followed the structure on the second day:

1. General 2. Infrastructure, technology, IT and digitalization 3. Operations/processes 4. Assets 5. Mind Change

The principal objective is to improve competitiveness of CT. To this aim, one or two concrete actions should be defined by each table that can be further analysed and developed in the short- and medium-term by AlpInnoCT.

The Round Table leaders of Day 2 as well as of the pilot route Trieste-Bettembourg were made up of the stakeholders of the AlpInnoCT Project.

3.2 Findings and main conclusions Day 2

The summary of Round Tables was moderated by Tim-Oliver Frische (Deutsche Verkehrszeitung, DVZ) in an active dialogue with the respective Round Table moderators.

Mind change was rated by almost all discussion rounds as one of the most decisive indicator, affecting almost all aspects of CT.

Communication - A big part of the solution approach is thinking beyond the limits of own business fields and borders. Joint discussion of the problems to find joint solutions in CT is the key. This involves also mutual understanding of the problems and positions.

Digitalization - In order to bring about a positive trend reversal in terms of logistics capability of CT, digitalization is seen as an important factor - customers expect certain qualities in a certain time; this must be optimized along the entire transport chain; digitalization can be a strong supporter. Digitalization refers to various aspects and can be implemented in short-term, as already available in different areas:

Tracking and tracing is a measure that can be implemented in the short term; the information (location of the train e.g.) should be made available to all actors in order to increase the system capacity.

Communication between terminals, rail transport companies and infrastructure; competitive solutions are already available here.

Digitalization of documents as a next step in order to achieve paperless data exchange (as e.g. already standard in air transport and travel).

Automation of processes in order to open up new potentials in terms of logistics efficiency.

Also solutions like NIKRASA can be implemented in the short-term (non-craneable trailers will be made craneable with few investments and few technical efforts).

Harmonization and standardisation – in view of standards and access to all information of the whole transport chain and for all actors involved. A Pan-European language standard in rail transport is needed to overcome the barriers concerning both access to CT as well as the efficient handling of CT.

Page 42

Vocational training delivers an opportunity to shift more freight traffic from road to rail by provision of know-how and improving the level of awareness among pupils and trainees. This will help to improve understanding of the complex transport system of CT. The provision of information and the qualification of logisticians and forwarding agents will help improving the combined transport market and enable to present customers with suitable transport offers.

Capacity expansion is seen as a key factor in view of terminal capacity as well as investments into terminal networks for economic efficiency in CT.

Artificial Intelligence is offering technologically interesting solutions but these are to be seen as future topics that will be still under research within the next few years.

It is very important to take legislation and mainly also the European legislation on board and explain the regulatory jungle that freight transport faces today, e.g. a semi-trailer on the NIKRASA platform is in legal terms not part of CT, but general cargo. The idea is to develop a standardized European solution that can be applied all over Europe.

4 Market Place A Market Place was organized by AlpInnoCT around the 2-day event to share innovations and solutions for Combined Transport. The objective of the AlpInnoCT marketplace was to bring together logistics service providers, wagon and semitrailer manufacturers, policy makers, researchers, academics, consultants, and NGOs, to share their tools, methods and experiences, and to search for the right tool or method to support work towards Combined Transport.

In advance of the conference, applications for an exhibition stand at the AlpInnoCT market place were collected following a call for exhibitors, which was spread by project partners.

The market place was set up outdoors, between the main building of the LKZ Centre and the conference tent. At this location, the market place was well visible and easily accessible to conference participants. Before and after the conference sessions, as well as during the breaks, the market place was well attended, as exhibitors used many opportunities to present tools and engage conference participants in discussions.

The products, projects, initiatives and tools presented at the market place were:

• Aeolix Project, which aims to develop a platform for connecting logistics information systems (displayed by TX Logistik)

• NexTrust Project, which aims at validating a sustainable business model for collaboration in transportation (displayed by TX Logistik)

• Testing of a technical device and questionnaire with conference participants on the acceptance of digital travel assistance systems, as part of the research project “RadAR+” (conducted by Fraunhofer IML, project centre for Transport, Mobility and Environment)

• Logistic Initiative Bavaria, providing an information platform for logistics in Bavaria (CNA e.V. Centre für Transportation & Logistics)

• Project ERFA Gleisanschluss, which works towards information, knowledge exchange and awareness raising on railway sidings (Fraunhofer IML and LKZ Prien)

• In2Code, agency for web applications and web portal solutions (displayed by In2Code).

The AlpInnoCT project poster and flyers (in German and in English language) were also displayed at the market place.

5 Outlook Combined Transport (CT) offers a great potential for the future and can make an even greater contribution to sustainability, above all, in sensitive regions like the Alpine region. To achieve low carbon and cost-efficient transport as far as possible, the different modes of transport road, rail, but also water and air must be optimally linked with each other.

Rail and ship can be economically used primarily for long distances and high traffic volumes. The truck is flexible in terms of time and space and is particularly suitable for small-scale distribution in pre- and on-carriage.

Economic efficiency of Combined Transport depends crucially on the existence of optimum interfaces between the different transport modes of the transport chain. Transhipment facilities need to be available on a large scale. The development of volumes in the existing terminals clearly confirms the importance of this transport sector. This is where the development potential for rail freight transport lies.

In order to achieve a greater shift from road to rail by CT basically a mind change among all participants and stakeholders in Combined Transport is crucial. Improved information flows through digitalization require open systems. Transparency is vital in the sense of openness of all data beyond industrial/business secrets. Customer orientation is essential as well as a standard language and less national regulations.

During the AlpInnoCT mid-term conference and dialogue event, participants discussed innovations and new approaches from industry and production sector analysing their potential for transfer and success as game changers for Combined Transport and making it competitive compared to road – which still is the benchmark today.

AlpInnoCT will further take up the results and insights gained in the Mid-term Conference and Dialogue Event based on the AlpInnoCT Wish List. These findings build the basis for the development and definition of new solutions that will be implemented, tested and evaluated in the AlpInnoCT pilot corridors Verona -Rostock and Bettembourg – Trieste with the aim to put forward new technical solutions and innovations for Combined Transport. This will help to create the conditions to achieve a major shift from road to rail.

Page 46

To this aim, AlpInnoCT identifies optimization potentials in Combined Transport and analyzes and transfers production know-how that enters the so-called Toolbox of Action to provide (tested) technical solutions and recommendations and to optimize the organization of complex processes in Combined Transport. In addition, more sustainable and decarbonised transport is central to EU transport policy, as the transport sector being one of the major contributors to greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. Therefore, AlpInnoCT findings and results may also be taken into consideration in the European Directive 92/106/EEC for Combined Transport between the Member States2.

Der alpenquerende Kombinierte Verkehr soll verbessert werden. Foto: Thomas Küppers

1 JUN 2018

Beim 10. Kongress Logistik

Innovation feierte das

Logistik Kompetenz Zentrum

(LKZ) Prien seinen 20.

Geburtstag. Im Rahmen

einer Midterm-Konferenz

wurde zudem weiter an dem

Projekt AlpInnoCT gefeilt.

Der Straßengüterverkehr

zwischen Norden und Süden

wird nicht weniger – und das

auch im sensiblen

Alpenraum. Das

europäische Projekt

AlpInnoCT will eine Lösung

für das Dilemma finden. Im

Rahmen des 10.

Kongresses Logistik Innovation – ausgerichtet durch das LKZ Prien – wurden erste Ansätze vorgestellt.

Bis 2030 wird das Güterverkehrsaufkommen etwa allein in Bayern um 31 Prozent wachsen, der Straßengüterverkehr wird

dabei seine dominierende Stellung ausbauen auf einen Verkehrsanteil von 77 Prozent, sagte Dr. Karin Jäntschi-Haucke,

Stellvertretende Leiterin der Abteilung Verkehr beim bayerischen Staatsministerium für Wohnen, Bau und Verkehr (StMB).

Aber um das prognostizierte Verkehrswachstum gerade im Alpenraum zu bewältigen, müssten Transporte auf die Schiene

verlagert, gleichzeitig aber auch die Leistungsfähigkeit des Kombinierten Verkehrs (KV) erhöht werden.

AlpInnoCT-Projekt feiert Halbzeit

Das ist erklärtes Ziel des AlpInnoCT-Projekts, erklärte Karl Fischer, Geschäftsführer des LKZ. Bis 2019 wollen die

Projektteilnehmer etwa die Zusammenarbeit der verschiedenen KV-Netzwerke verbessern, innovative Ansätze zur

Förderung der Verkehrsverlagerung integrieren und eine Plattform für den alpenweiten Informationsaustausch bieten.

Bei dem Kongress in Prien feierte das Projekt Halbzeit: Halbzeit, weil Studien und Analysen zur Ist-Situation des KV jetzt

AKTUELLES WISSEN ANGEBOTE DEKRA

LOGINDEKRA.NET SUCHE KONTAKT

vorliegen und der nächste Schritt ansteht, die Bestimmung und Umsetzung von Maßnahmen. Dazu wollen die

Projektteilnehmer sich von der Industriebranche und deren Produktions-Know-how einiges abschauen, sagte Jürgen

Neugebauer, ebenfalls vom StMB und AlpInnoCT-Lead Partner. Ziel sei, den Kunden des Kombinierten Verkehrs

Pünktlichkeit, Verlässlichkeit, Effizienz und Profitabilität anbieten zu können und damit die Wettbewerbsfähigkeit des KV

gegenüber der Straße zu verbessern. Als Modellprojekt sollen zunächst zwei Relationen dienen: die Verbindung

Bettembourg–Triest sowie Rostock–Verona.

Ticket kaufen wie bei der Luftfracht

Die Transportunternehmen und KV-Operateure etwa wollen für den KV einen Ansatz wie in der Luftfracht, sagte Thomas

Eberl, Geschäftsführer, Eberl – Internationale Spedition aus Aiging: „Einfach ein Ticket kaufen“, um auch im KV flexibel auf

die Lieferverträge der Kunden reagieren zu können, statt wie bisher lange vorher Trasse, Rangierleistung, Terminalslot und

mehr buchen zu müssen.

Die Eisenbahnverkehrsunternehmen sehen vor allem einen besseren Informationsfluss zwischen allen Beteiligten als

dringlich an, sagte Mirko Pahl, CEO von TX Logistik. Was die Industrie dem KV zur Optimierung beibringen kann, fasste

Joachim Lößlein, Head of Produktion im Werk Traunreut des Hausgerätehersteller BSH, zusammen: „Überall gibt es

unterschiedliche Slots, Zeitfenster und Arbeitszeiten – das könnte durch eine Glättung, wie wir sie in der Produktion kennen,

nivelliert werden.“ Auch der „Future Trailer“ ist ein Thema bei dem länderübergreifenden Projekt. Gero Schulze Isfort vom

Trailerbauer Krone fasste zusammen: „Wenn es um die Standardisierung und damit eine einheitliche Lösung für den

Kombinierten Verkehr geht, müssen wir einfach miteinander reden.“

Das Projekt

Das Project Alpine Innovation for Combined Transport (AlpInnoCT) ist im November 2016 gestartet und läuft bis

Oktober 2019.

Ziel ist, den Kombinierten Verkehr in Europa, insbesondere aber den alpenquerenden Verkehr, zu verbessern.

Eingebunden sind Politik, Verbände und Infrastrukturbetreiber, Eisenbahnverkehrsunternehmen, Waggon- und

Trailerhersteller ebenso wie Verlader sowie Spediteure und Transporthersteller – insgesamt 15 Projektpartner aus

Deutschland, der Schweiz, Italien und Slowenien.
