Multimodal transport

International Multimodal Transport Association

In addition, a multimodal system is being introduced.

The development of multimodal transport and accelerated delivery services would also represent an important contribution for LDCs.

In response it was explained that, while the carriage of live animals was typically multimodal in practice, it was never conducted on the basis of a multimodal contract of carriage and that therefore the non maritime leg of the carriage was subject to domestic law.

Although transportation practices and patterns have changed accordingly, the international legal framework governing multimodal transportation is lagging behind.

Moreover, the working assumption is that the draft instrument would also apply to multimodal contracts that include a sea leg.

As a practical matter, multimodal bills of lading in current usage commonly identify the intended ports of loading and discharge.

The secretariat continued to monitor and analyse developments relating to efficient transport and trade facilitation, including multimodal transport and logistics services.

As an important element of transit transport regimes, attention would be paid to ensuring an enabling environment for multimodal transport and logistics services.

Trade and transport facilitation may be incorporated into regional integration processes such as the adoption of ICT, multimodal transport, financial instruments and regional energy markets.

A question was raised as to whether draft article 89(a) would introduce exemption of liability in the non maritime legs of the carriage in case of multimodal transport.

8. Notes with satisfaction the holding of a workshop on multimodal transport and trade facilitation, in Tehran in May 2004, sponsored by the Economic Cooperation Organization, in which the Islamic Development Bank, the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development and the Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific participated, and hopes that efforts will be made to bring about the successful completion of the multimodal transport project as soon as possible

The least developed countries faced a worrying situation with regard to the development of multimodal transport, and challenges included the limited availability of transport equipment, precarious infrastructure, and complex and onerous administrative procedures.

It was also indicated that consideration should be given to the possibility of extending the protection granted by the article to all performing parties in light of the multimodal nature of the draft instrument.

There are currently no uniform international conventions to support international multimodal transportation and it is therefore important for international and regional efforts to be made to develop a new legal instrument to govern transportation.

(c) Promoting comprehensive approaches to removing institutional barriers and facilitating the international movement of goods, people and vehicles and introducing and developing multimodal transport and logistics services to enable active participation in the globalization process

The Economic Community countries were also promoting a multimodal corridor Isaka Dar es Salaam Nyanza by rail and Isaka Lusahunga Nyakahura Ruhigi towards Burundi and from Isaka, through Lusahunga and Rusumo, by road towards Rwanda.

Freedom of contract approach vs. exemption from liability approach

Thus, both a vertical approach and a horizontal approach were required.

The note by the secretariat (TD B COM.3 EM.22 2) discusses the design and implementation of transit arrangements in the light of new developments in the field of technology, trade facilitation, multimodal transport and transport security.

The multimodal corridor using Lake Victoria will also be linked to the Economic Community countries either by a rail link from the ferry terminal at Kemondo Bay to Rusumo, or by the inland waterway from Kagera to Kagitumba.

They're what I'm calling here the gerontology approach and the geriatrics approach.

So, in this video we're using an approach called the reactive approach.

Unitary approach

This approach is also known as the opt in à la carte approach

Best practice suggests that, whatever approach is used, the approach should be disclosed.

Successful transit transport arrangements would bring together the private and public sectors from landlocked and transit countries, taking into account recent developments in international logistics, such as increased multimodal transport, new security requirements, and new information and communication technologies (ICTs).

Landlocked, transit and archipelagic countries in the Asian region faced multiple transport challenges, and the implementation of the Almaty Plan of Action and the São Paulo Consensus and the preparation of a legal framework on multimodal transport were important to them.

Cooperate with other intergovernmental and non governmental organizations in their work relating to the development of international legal instruments affecting international transport and trade facilitation, including multimodal transport, as provided for in paragraphs 59 and 60 of the São Paulo Consensus.
