    (2014-11-20) Sandén Gustafsson, Henrik; Mickael, Briffaz; Kang, Lu; Darvey, Clément
    This paper concerns the forwarding company KDSB and their investigation of intermodal operational activities in the Northern part of Europe. Due to receiving new contracts by three customers in the Oresund area of Scandinavia, KDSB will enter the freight forwarding business in the region. One customer is located in Malmo, another in Copenhagen and a third at the Hoje Taastrup terminal outside of Copenhagen. These customers have a demand of transportation between the port of Hamburg and their locations. Furthermore, the company have chosen to operate on the new to be constructed Fehmern Belt Link. The construction of the link is to be finalized in 2021, and is expected to change the current flow of freight in the Scandinavian region. In order to conduct necessary investments and strategic decisions, KDSB have evaluated other possible routes and modes. Hence, the new Fehmern Belt Link is being compared with other possible alternatives. An investigation regarding the infrastructure, a performed cost analysis, a market analysis and a setup plan is proposed in the paper
