The book "Intermodal Transport. Design of transshipment terminals" is a compendium of knowledge on the shaping and dimensioning of intermodal terminals. The authors, outstanding experts from the Warsaw University of Technology, present a methodology for terminal design, which is essential in the engineering approach to this class of problems. The publication places great emphasis on practical aspects, which is evident in the chapters devoted to the procedure for designing an intermodal terminal, calculating expenses and costs, as well as in the case descriptions.

Modern management of logistics processes requires the construction of modern structures of transport systems. The choice of how to move cargo in logistics systems results from the specificity of the system itself and the transport technology used. Recently, there has been a clear increase in interest in modern transport services of a logistics nature for handling trade in goods. Their development requires the expansion of point transport infrastructure, the most important elements of which are intermodal transshipment terminals or logistics centers equipped with this type of infrastructure.

This publication is particularly valuable for students of engineering studies of the first and second degree in the fields of transport, logistics, as well as economic fields with logistics. Due to the practical qualities of the book, it can also be successfully used by practitioners - design offices, logistics consultants, etc. It is an indispensable source of knowledge for anyone who wants to explore the secrets of intermodal transport and the design of transshipment terminals.
