The thesis demonstrates that the major factors influencing choice of service include transportation cost, delivery time and departure frequencies. Analytical and simulation models of road-rail intermodal transportation and results of the experiments provide with new knowledge about: a freight traffic pattern and characteristics of carrier utilization; precision in determining scope of piggybacking application. With the technique elaborated for haulage optimisation, road-rail intermodal transportation parameters could be determined to define the organisation of the process of transportation in terms of time.
