Abstract

Freight transport by railway is gaining more attention at present as a countermeasure against global warming. In keeping with this purpose, the present study examined various methods for promoting railway use through minimization of the transfer resistance of bulk freight at railway stations. First, the transfer-related factors that shippers consider as important when choosing railway as a transport mode were identified. Also, the relative importance and the level of influence of each factor during the transfer stage were evaluated. Policy directions for reducing transfer resistance in railway stations were then proposed based on the analysis of the transfer resistance factors. The policy directions include both hardware and software approaches. The necessary reduction ranges with regard to the transfer cost and time through policy implementation efforts were suggested as well.

지구온난화에 대한 대응으로 철도를 이용한 화물운송의 필요성이 강조되고 있다. 이의 일환으로 본 연구는 벌크화물을 대상으로 철도역 환적저항 감소를 통한 철도이용 활성화 방안을 강구하였다. 우선 화주가 철도운송을 선택하는 과정에서 중요하게 고려하는 환적관련 요인을 파악하였다. 그리고 이들의 상대적 중요도를 비교하고 환적단계에서 영향을 미치는 비중을 평가하였다. 다음으로 환적저항 요인에 대한 분석을 토대로 철도역에서 환적저항을 감소시킬 정책추진 방향을 제안하였다. 정책은 하드웨어적 개선방안과 소프트웨어적 개선방안을 포함한다. 또한 정책 추진을 통해 이끌어내야 할 환적비용과 환적시간의 감소 범위도 제시하였다.
