16. Lessons of Fresh Corridor  Total speed satisfies most times  Awareness criteria (what cargo needs which speed?)  Tuning barge & terminals  Transparency of costs and process times  Pre an post transport as well transport of empties crucial  Quality infrastructure between trade areas and terminals (Fresh!) remains important  Trimodal is ultimate Results Content Background

17. Lessons of Fresh Corridor  Risk transport by barge (f.e. insurance)  Still limited operational sense of availability in modality's  Combination of cargo and modality’s helps (barge & rail) modality shift  Reliable arrival planning influences efficiency of inspection (costs) and inventory planning Results Content Background
