For the first time in Uzbekistan, the container transportation method has been tested. This was reported by Upl.uz.
In this method, trucks transport cargo on special platforms via railways. The innovative project was implemented in collaboration with the "Uztemiryolkonteyner" joint-stock company and the Tashkent State Transport University.
During the test run, trucks were sent from Tashkent station to Hamza station via railway. This method has several important advantages.
Firstly, the amount of cargo on the road decreases, which slows down the wear and tear of the highways. Secondly, it is environmentally beneficial, as container transportation helps reduce carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions.
This aligns with the principles of "green" logistics and protects the environment. Thirdly, this method increases efficiency in delivering cargo over long distances and reduces costs, which is particularly important in conditions of increasing transport flow.
The successful completion of the test opens new opportunities for the development of logistics infrastructure in Uzbekistan. This will contribute to making the system more modern, efficient, and environmentally friendly.
