This article is about the design of intermodal terminals. The classification of intermodal terminals and their role in the transport chain have been presented. Particular attention has been paid to the design of functional zones of the intermodal terminal serving both containers as well as swap bodies and semi-trailers. Technical and technological requirements for these zones have been determined. Theoretical example of calculation of selected functional zones of intermodal terminal is presented.
