摘要: Due to globalization in trade, the development of multimodal cargo shipments and related transport needs have created a range challenges. Interestingly, sustainability freight transportation is still subject minor consideration, on grounds that economic interests are frequently positioned much higher than social or environmental objectives. This proposed research plan needed assess whether what extent system achieving results dimensions: economic, environmental. Thus, it will carry out critical appraisal sector provide an up-to-date knowledge challenges potential solutions through doctoral research. paper structured present review existing literature highlighting concerns with systems. It also highlights gaps justification need address these for function optimally. covers methodology would be applied sources data reviewed ensure aim objectives clearly addressed. The concludes by discussing significance expected findings light academia, policy makers industry.
