This book aims to highlight the interrelations between maritime ports, supply chains and logistics. Inland corridors could be defined as major arteries for inland transportation from and to the maritime port. They link together one or several ports located on the maritime range with one or several major inland metropolitan areas. The efficiency of international supply chains depends not only on the smooth operations in the port but also on the efficiency of inland distribution in terms of cost, reliability, added value services for the goods, safety and finally the environment.

This book aims to highlight the interrelations between maritime ports, supply chains and logistics. Inland corridors could be defined as major arteries for inland transportation from and to the maritime port. They link together one or several ports located on the maritime range with one or several major inland metropolitan areas. The efficiency of international supply chains depends not only on the smooth operations in the port but also on the efficiency of inland distribution in terms of cost, reliability, added value services for the goods, safety and finally the environment.
With contributions from international experts, the book offers a transversal perspective on logistics corridor development using case studies on the Seine Axis, among others. Organized into four key sections, the book highlights the interrelations between ports and corridors using both empirical and theoretical research from various disciplines, including engineering as well as human and social sciences.
Maritime Ports,Supply Chains and Logistics Corridors will be directly relevant to a wide variety of scholars and postgraduate researchers in the fields of transport studies and management, maritime logistics, supply chain management and international logistics as well as industrial engineering, geography, economics and political science.
Cyrille Bertelle is Full Professor in Computer Science at LITIS, Normandy University - Le Havre, France. He is also Director of SFLog, Research Federation in Logistics, Normandy. His current research interests and projects concern Complex Systems Modelling and Simulation, Complex Networks for Territorial Intelligence and Logistics Systems, and Blockchains for Smart Ports. Nathan Gouin has a PhD in Geography and Planning from the University of Rouen in 2020. He worked as Post-Doctoral Fellow to coordinate the Paris Megaregion project and since 2021 he has been Research Engineer at the University of Le Havre, in charge of the scientific steering of the GIS Institute for a smart logistics in Seine Valley. His scientific work focuses on political geography, regionalization and inter-territorial cooperation. Antoine Frémont is Professor at the Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers, holding the chair of transport, flows and sustainable mobility. His research focuses on maritime transport, containerization and globalization; the organization of intermodal transport chains; combined transport and modal shift in Europe; and regional planning of metropolitan logistics.
