2. Addressing the requirements of port communities
Changing role of maritime ports
Volatility in the global economy
means variability in the demand for
transportation services, requiring
thourough analysis of the business.
Adoption of intermodality exerts
pressure on port authorities to
morph from a maritime port to a
competitive multimodal services
facility.
Concerns about the negative impact
of maritime, truck, and rail
transportation on the environment
require ports to respond and
communicate effectively
