The focus of the tool is on eliminating red tape and easing the booking process for shippers. At the same time, green transport service providers can best possibly market their service to demanders of freight service routes. By that modility supports the market uptake of electrification strategies in port environments, considering regional strategies.

Modility develops a simple point of entry for combined transport (CT), in which modility brings together the demand for rail solutions and free transport capacities of train operators. Operators can use the portal to market their transport capacities and freight forwarders can easily find and book them. In this way, modility aims to become the central access point to Combined Transport and facilitate the switch to more climate-friendly transport modes: electrified rail lines and inland waterway transport. Development partners include logistic service providers, shipping companies, carriers and industry associations. They know the CT market inside out and bring in their expertise in solving the CT challenges. This enables modility to constantly improve its publicly accessible and neutral online booking platform for sustainable European transport solutions.
