Article published in Container Management

TRI's Professor Alf Baird has published an article in the June 2010 edition of Container Management. As the article explains, the EU's Motorways of the Sea (MoS) initiative aims to achieve a modal shift from land to sea transport. However, as Professor Baird argues, the first step is to establish a clear definition of what constitutes maritime transport infrastructure – which implies a shift of emphasis from ports to shipping.

The full article, entitled "Redefining maritime transport infrastructure", can be downloaded by clicking here (pdf).
