Integrating Smart Inland Waterways for Sustainable Multimodal Logistics. 01/06/2025 - 31/05/2027

Abstract

While the increased use of sustainable transport modes and multimodal solutions are critical levers for transport, logistics and supply chain decarbonisation, and despite obvious environmental advantages, the modal share of the EU IWT sector has remained below expectations over the last decades. The seamless integration of inland waterway transport in multimodal supply chains requires the physical and digital connection to other land transport modes and maritime transport. The project will focus on the integration of smart vessels, smart infrastructure, smart data and smart governance in multimodal logistics chains.
