Abstract

Nowadays, seaports face many problems. One of the major problems is the increase in container traffic, and due to this there are problems such as the lack of space at the seaport terminals, and the congestion on routes serving those terminals, i.e. increase of bottlenecks in land transport systems serving the seaports. For some seaports, the weakest links in their transport chains are exit gates where congested roads and inadequate rail links cause delays and increase transport costs. Strategic solution would be the implementation of railways and/or improved land-based intermodal terminals, i.e. dry ports serving seaports. This paper presents a decision-making model on the necessity to establish a dry port for serving seaport in order to increase the capacity or space of the seaport, accelerate the technological process and reduce the rush on the routes.
