Modal shift policy

One of Hupac's main objectives is the growth of combined transport in transalpine traffic through Switzerland. In 2024, Hupac Intermodal transported 536,000 road consignments or 10.4 million net tonnes in transalpine traffic through Switzerland. In total, the Hupac Group moved 950,000 road consignments.

 

Institutions

We maintain a constructive and transparent relationship with Swiss and European institutions. Our many years of experience are valued and in demand, for example for the further development of transport policy framework conditions. We are a member of numerous trade associations and working groups that are dedicated to promoting our industry.

 

Local communities

Hupac is committed to the development of local communities by supporting projects and associations.

Terminal Busto Arsizio-Gallarate
Terminal Busto Arsizio-Gallarate

The Terminal Busto Arsizio-Gallarate combines the strength of a solid structure for the road-rail transhipment with the advantage of a strategic position. It is located in one of the major European economic areas, 20 km from Milan and 150 km from the port of Genoa. Its railway position is optimal thanks to the connections both to the north, via Luino, Domodossola and Chiasso, and to the rest of Italy. It is accessible directly via motorway and allows road vehicles to arrive easily to the trains and to move quickly on to their final destination.

 

The terminal was projected and realized according to the most state-of-the-art planning technologies, in order to combine efficient and quick work with safety and environmental protection. Every day dozens of trains connect the terminal with destinations in Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark and Poland, and perform a relevant hub function within the European intermodal network.
