Abstract
Within this paper, we present a comparison between "presumed" intermodal route planning and true intermodal route planning. We will show that intermodal route planning does not necessarily mean that the obtained route is intermodal but that it is sufficient that under other circumstances (e.g. different traffic situation) an intermodal route would have been suggested. Furthermore, we will point up that the tools for true intermodal route planning are already developed and basically a mind change needs to be achieved. We will also highlight how true intermodal route planning is an essential prerequisite for synchromodality and therefore for the application of the Physical Internet.
