Commitment to climate and environmental responsibility

 

As a pioneer in intermodal transport, Hupac actively contributes to reducing environmental impacts by shifting freights from road to rail. This modal shift is one of the most effective ways to lower greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption in the logistics sector.

 

In addition, we work to reduce noise emissions, optimise the use of resources such as water and chemicals and promote biodiversity. Minimising waste and ensuring the safe transport of goods are also central to our environmental responsibility.

New shuttle net service Busto Arsizio <=> Padova Interporto

From 18.04.2023 we will start a new feeder train between Busto Arsizio and Padova Interporto. In order to facilitate the modal shift of domestic traffic in Northern Italy and in view of the repeated and frequent works on the Rheintalbahn through Switzerland and the forthcoming works on the Brenner and Tarvisio lines, with the consequent suspension of the Duisburg-Pordenone service, we will introduce a new service with several weekly departures between Busto Arsizio and Padova Interporto. 

 

This will allow us to connect two of the most important intermodal terminals in Europe, the Busto Arsizio terminal managed by Hupac SpA and the Interporto di Padova terminal managed by Interporto di Padova SpA, and to benefit from the important synergies with the national and international trains offered to/from these terminals.
