Abstract:Planners concerned with deep-water port operations are interested in strategies that improve
regional truck flows associated with the container trade while also mitigating related problems of
highway congestion and air pollution. An inland port or integrated distribution hub is typically
located some distance from traditional seaport gateways and is designed to facilitate international
trade processing by providing multi-modal transportation assets and value-added services at a
single site. Strategically located inland ports could contribute to increasing container flow and
solving port-related congestion and pollution problems.
