Construction activity impacts combined transport
Traffic on Hupac's network amounted to 575,000 road consignments in H1/2022, representing a small increase of 1% compared to 2021.
After a lively development in Q1/2022, traffic slumped in April and June due to route closures and capacity restrictions caused by extensive construction works on the Rhine-Alpine corridor. Transalpine traffic through Switzerland was particularly affected. Traffic on the north-east and south-east corridors however showed a positive trend.
For the coming months, the Swiss intermodal operator expects a satisfactory capacity offer thanks to diversions, the expansion of services on alternative relations and the provision of reserve compositions. (ben)
