An important step in completing the European Single Market is to finalize the single rail and inland waterway transport system including first and last mile facilities and to ensure - wherever it is possible - an effective choice of transport modes for shipping companies. These are preconditions to enable modal shift and to achieve goals like environmental relief in traffic congested areas and reduction of GHG-emissions. Besides a lot of propositions in detail mentioned before the final statement by the moderator Detlev Golletz summarized the workshop results in three conclusions: (1) More collaboration between concerned professions and businesses to get system relevant freight transport solutions. (2) Synchronization of serving systems to realize goods' delivery in a sustainable way. (3) Funding and investing in research and pilot projects to make actions selfdynamic and self-bearing.
