The e-Freight Implementation Action (e-Impact) overall objective is to foster implementation of e-Freight so as to simplify and reduce the cost of exchanging information between different actors and transport modes along the chain, leading to a more efficient, less polluting freight transport, and facilitating the use of multimodal freight transport solutions. Achieving paperless and seamless information flows along the whole transport logistics chain (involving shippers, freight forwarders, transport carriers, network managers as well as authorities) is a key objective for both the freight transport sector and the EU. The Action, including studies and real-life pilot deployments, is implemented in core ports in Italy, Poland and Portugal along three core network corridors (Atlantic, Mediterranean and Baltic–Adriatic).
