Optimized Logistics for ports and intermodal transport
This project pursues the improved efficiency of cross-border connections for secondary and tertiary port nodes in the cooperation area to facilitate the intermodal mobility of goods and people and connect to the TEN-T networks, coherently with the GoSmartMed, Circumvectio and GEECCTT Iles projects. The current fragmentation of the area's transport system hurts accessibility and logistics costs, resulting in less competitiveness. To face this challenge, EasyLog designs, develops and implements an innovative ICT system for optimised management of information and procedural flows among the operators of the cross-border port supply chain. The general objective is to improve the mobility of rolling stock between cross-border regions. Exploiting ICT technologies will increase the performance of the multimodal transport chain and the global quality of services rendered by the port nodes of the partner regions and make the connections to the TEN-T networks more efficient. EasyLog uses advanced and integrated technological equipment to support the needs of intermodal port transport operators and optimise communications and operations. The system will be tested on 5 ports and 5 existing lines to assess its real applicability. The beneficiaries will be carriers, port operators, freight companies, public administrations and the areas in general due to the higher possibility for growth afforded by the improved production performance of the transport system. The partnership will be working in a participatory and coordinated way to implement a shared intelligent cross-border traffic management system that will improve the logistics and maritime transport chains in the cooperation area and overcome the limits of the current fragmentation.
