The paper attempts to characterize an intermodal transport in Wielkopolska, in particular in the context of market conditions for its development. The studies were conducted by an interview with open questions. The aim was to examine the possibility of development of intermodal transport by survey with stakeholders and customers. The study allowed us to identify certain regularity in terms of transport service operators expected by stakeholders. The most important are factors associated with long-term cooperation with reliable transport companies. The expansion of road system diminishes the competitive position of intermodal transport. Among the respondents dominates the desire to maintain the status quo rather passive attitude in shaping the model of transport. Only entities implementing the strategy of corporate social responsibility, where sustainability is incorporated into their objectives have contrary attitude. The development of this idea is a factor in a potential increase in the importance of intermodal transport.
