The case of three different strategies for sustainable freight transport is studied in the thesis: (1) horizontal collaboration in a Physical Internet network, (2) multimodal freight transport and (3) liquefied natural gas (LNG) as alternative truck fuel. Each of these three strategies falls within a different pillar of the avoid-shift-reduce framework. Chapter 4 introduces the ASI (avoid-shift-improve) framework and gives an overview of existing strategies for sustainable freight transport. In particular, horizontal collaboration in a PI network, multimodality and LNG as an alternative fuel will be presented and differentiated from similar concepts. It will be justified why these three particular strategies have been chosen as the subject of this thesis.
