The Alps are a sensitive ecosystem to be protected from pollutant emissions & climate change. Continued growth in freight traffic volume leads to environmental and social problems. These trends reinforce the need to review existing transport modes & develop innovative models to protect the Alpine Space.

Therefore, the project Alpine Innovation for Combined Transport (AlpInnoCT) tackled the main challenges to raise CT efficiency and productivity. This included new approaches like the application of production industry knowhow as well as the analysis of existing strategies, policies and processes.

This Toolbox of Action summarizes the main results and aims to provide information for political and economic decision makers and the civil society, on how Combined Transport can be fostered in Europe and the Alpine Space for a successful shift of freight traffic, from road to rail.

The AlpInnoCT (Alpine Innovation for Combined Transport) project was carried out in the framework of the Alpine Space Programme – European Territorial Cooperation 2014-2020 (INTERREG VB), funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and national co-funding. It does not necessarily reflect the opinion of the European Union.
