Project Objectives

The MOSES four core objectives are described below:

  • To develop all the research actions necessary for underpinning a marketing strategy to make available MoS the obvious mode for freight transport by user and key decision makers.

  • To produce a comprehensive and validated methodology for developing quality MoS services with seamless junctions at modal transfer nodes through integration of technology with organisational, economic and regulatory aspects.

  • To assess the impacts of the MOSES innovations and resulting policy recommendations, and of their deployment at European Union-side scale and to develop tools to assess and certify MoS services.

  • To produce a blueprint for designing and implementing at European Union scale efficient, safe and secure Motorways of the Sea that achieve a massive modal shift from road freight transport, verified and validated through business case Demonstrators.
