Organization of transportation

Organization of transportation is one of the most important parts of the supply chain. It is essential to develop effective and safe routes for rolling stock.

Proper organization of freight traffic includes the following:

a) fuel economy;

b) preservation of the quality and quantity of cargo;

c) keeping safety requirements and the requirements of traffic safety;

d) environmental protection; compliance of labor laws;

e) delivery of goods on time.

Proper organization of the transport process suggests:
1) reduction of time spent during loading and unloading of cargo due to;

a) the use of different loading and unloading operations and the application of their comprehensive mechanization;

b) strict adherence to delivery and work schedule of vehicles;

c) preparation of driveways and maneuvering areas for vehicles, especially cars with trailers, preparation of goods;

2) correct placement of freight in the vehicle, contributing to the uniform distribution of the weight load on the chassis of the vehicle;

3) optimal modes of movement of vehicles on the relevant sections of the road based on road conditions, visibility, traffic intensity and other factors with strict observance of traffic rules by drivers;

4) freight should be transported on rational routes taking into account the shortest distance, driving modes at each section of the way, ensuring the vehicle loading in both directions;

5) rational stowage, allowing maximum use of rolling stock capacity.
