The textbook "Optimization of Modal Shift and Container Repositioning at Maersk Line" by Erik Altena provides a comprehensive analysis of modal shift in hinterland transport as well as the (re)positioning of empty containers at Maersk Line. In today's world, where sustainability and efficiency in transportation are increasingly in focus, the publication examines how multimodal transport solutions, particularly the transition from truck to rail and barge transport, can offer both ecological and economic benefits. The study highlights current projects aimed at reducing transport costs and creating a more efficient network. The findings and recommendations of this research are of great interest to decision-makers and professionals in the field of logistics and transport, as they provide important insights into the future development of transport modalities.
