GEODIS has kicked off a new intermodal route between Noisy-le-Sec in France and Novara in Italy.

The thrice a week service offers a weekly loading capacity of 240 ITUs.

"We are delighted to be able to offer a road-rail solution to our customers including delivery to or from France, for packaged products as well as liquids or powders; hazardous materials or waste," Daniele Bernardi, Managing Director of the GEODIS Road Transport Line of Business in Italy, commented.

He furthered, "A single loading unit is used from the sender to the recipient (swap bodies, box containers and tanks). All our container carriers are equipped with GPS beacons to guarantee safety and real-time information."
