The Freight Modal Choice Study aims to confirm the economic, social and environmental benefits of current freight movements by non-road modes on national network corridors and to identify where changes in future modal choice, from road to rail or water, could achieve appropriate outcomes on the network. This includes consideration of the capacity and capability of the national infrastructure to accommodate these changes in modal choice.
