Transport sector contributes to 23% of global CO2 emissions and road transport
share is about 75% of GHG emission from transport. Freight transport consumes 35% of all
transport energy and has been growing more rapidly than passenger transport. However,
current research focuses more on passenger transport. The paper reviews various
methodologies used for assessing carbon emissions from freight transport and propose a
framework for assessing emissions from interregional inland freight transport employing
bottom-up approach. The paper looks at intermodal transport opportunities through use of dry
ports and inland container depots along selected interregional freight route. Emissions
reduction potentials are evaluated through use of regulatory and economic instruments to
stimulate the modal shift from road towards more environmentally friendly modes such as
railway and waterways. It then suggests various policy options and measures necessary to
reduce emission from long haul freight transport
