Segment Notes:

This segment is used to specify transport details for the delivery schedule. If successive stages of transport need to be identified, then segment group 11 will be repeated for each successive stage, e.g.,on-carriage, etc,.

Example:
TDT+20++30+31'
Main carriage transport by road using a truck.

TDT+20+TD03233+30+31+:::SWIFT FREIGHT FORWARDERS+++:::CX146EU:NL'
The main carriage transport is by road using a truck from the carrier Swift Freight Forwarders. The reference number covering the transport is TD03233 and the licence plate number of the truck is CX146EU, a Dutch licence plate number.

Dependency Notes:
Data elements 8179 and 8178 are only used when the type of transport must be specifically identified, that is, a generic description such as road transport is unsuitable.
