This paper develops a simulation model to include the short-sea shipping (SSS) on the intermodal freight flow model the author already developed, in order to measure an impact of policy that encourages the utilization of the SSS. The developed model is applied to the real shipping network connecting the northern Kyushu area in Japan with China and Korea; as a result, the model reproduces the actual maritime shipping market well, and some implications are acquired such that in order to advance utilization of the SSS, a kind of drastic policy such as mutual recognition of chassis is needed.
