Increasing efficiency to achieve our climate target
The performance of freight transport by rail is to be doubled. This increase in efficiency is important because in order to achieve climate neutrality by 2040, more freight transport is to be shifted to rail. In the Federal Government's Mobility Master Plan 2030, the modal split of rail in freight transport aims to be increased to 40 percent.
Digitalisation is on track
Digital processes play a major role in our TRACK FWD (German) digitalisation offensive. The exchange with our customers, innovative solutions and increased digitalisation help us to achieve our growth target in freight transport.
Your benefits
-
- More security through access control
- Time spent at the terminal is reduced by up to 30 percent
- More efficient use of transport units
- Simplified allocation of customer orders
- More efficient processing
A milestone towards the future!
On 23 June, we introduced our new Terminal Operating System (TOS), known as KLV 4.0, at the gates. This will allow us to automate and digitise our terminal processes more efficiently, particularly at the entrances and exits.
Your support is important! Even the best technology can only realise its full potential if we all work together. Correct and stable data is key. Only with your cooperation can we utilise the new processes to their fullest extent.
Please note that due to the complete system integration of our new terminal operating system, KLV 4.0, the system can no longer record interchangeable bodies without a correct ILU code and therefore cannot handle them.
To support your operational processes, we offer the following service: If your swap bodies do not yet have an ILU code, you can send us the stickers in advance. We will then affix a valid code to the WAB on site. To avoid waiting times, please contact your terminal's point of contact in good time. The price for this service is €65 per WAB.
KLV 4.0 will be used at all INFRA TSA terminals with immediate effect.
If you have any questions about the process, please contact the relevant terminal contact person directly:

General questions about the rollout
Video gates for faster detection of trucks and containers
Together with Camco Technologies, a pioneer in innovative automation solutions for intermodal freight transport, video gate systems are being implemented at four locations. This will automate entry and exit processes of loading units and reduce processing and turnaround times at the terminals.
Arrival at the terminal. Stopping, getting out, filling in forms, waiting for the data to be tapped into the computer - only then does the journey continue again. Soon this will be a matter of the past ...
And this is how it works with the video gates
Trucks pass through a massive steel frame, the video gate. High-performance cameras in several positions and sensors are installed on it, which automatically read out all relevant data such as container numbers, ISO codes and ILU numbers and feed them into the Terminal Operating System (TOS). Manual data collection is reduced to a minimum - the video gates do most of the work by themselves. The system also monitors the condition of the containers and trailers by providing precise, sharp images.
The first video gates were installed at the Wien Süd terminal in spring 2023. Wels, Wolfurt and Villach will follow.

Video Gates at Terminal Wien Süd
The first video gates have been installed at the Terminal Wien Süd. The information video for truck drivers shows a journey through the terminal. It shows, for example, registration with the authorisation card and the video gates at the entrance and exit.

Video gate entry - Maximum Speed 20 km/h - stop forbiddenThe video shows the innovations at the Terminal Wien Süd. The camera recording starts at the entrance and leads you through the entire area of the terminal - from the entrance through the video gate to the registration with the authorisation card to the exit through the video gate.

Registration with the authorisation card at the checker and afterwards in the terminal buildingIn the film recording, the procedure of registration with the authorisation card is shown.
Text insert:
Entry crane runway - only possible with authorisation card
Hold the card in front of the sensor - barrier opens, drive continues
Loading and unloading - remains the same
Video gate exit - maximum speed 20 km/h - stop forbidden
Kiosk exit - barrier automatically opens
Authorisation cards for even more security and transparency
Authorisation cards for kiosks and barrier systems ensure faster processing and more security at the terminals. Here, too, processing times are reduced so that we can become more efficient and increase our capacities in the long term.
And this is how it works with the authorisation cards
The authorisation cards for truck drivers are agreed with our customers in advance, approved and issued. Each truck driver receives his authorisation card in advance. When they arrive at the terminal, they can drive in at the barrier with the card, because it identifies the vehicle, the person authorised to dispose of it and thus legitimises them to collect the load. Manual entries by terminal employees are reduced to a minimum. If you have any further questions, please take a look at our FAQs (German).
