This study explores sustainable transportation corridors to enhance port operations, railway networks, and green logistics. It focuses on the current development of these corridors in Djibouti, drawing insights from Poland’s experiences. By reviewing existing literature and data, the research identifies best practices and offers recommendations for improving sustainability and connectivity. Key challenges include fragmented infrastructure, regulatory inconsistencies, and underutilized renewable energy sources. The findings suggest that enhancing intermodal transport connections and adopting green logistics can lower transportation costs and improve environmental performance. The study stresses the importance of coordinated policymaking, infrastructure investment, and green technology adoption to support sustainable development and align with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).}, doi = {10.12716/1001.19.01.24}, issn = {2083-6473}, publisher = {Gdynia Maritime University, Faculty of Navigation}, keywords = {Port Development, Intermodal Transport, Comparative Study, Rail Transport, Transport Corridors, Green Logistics, Infrastructure Development, Sustainable Transport} }
