A guide to successful implementation of Dry Ports

Region Västerbotten has within the scope of TransBaltic conducted a study of the dry port concept in the context of successful establishment in Västerbotten/Sweden. The report describes the constitution of a profitable dry port in Scandinavia and the necessary market conditions for successful implementation of the concept with special attention to the specificity of Region Västerbotten and the two potential dry port sites “The Nordic Logistic Center” in Umeå and the terminal in Stensele. Designing and implementing intermodal terminals is a complex process involving both public and private actors. The study identifies key factors and actors in the development process and describes how these interact and affect the progress and overall status of the process as well as describes the current trend and challenges related to the road-rail intermodal transport segment.
