Approximately 80 per cent of European and American citizens live in an urban environment. Due to their large populations and extensive commercial establishments, urban areas require large quantities of goods and services for commercial and domestic use. This results in increasing levels of demand for freight transport services. Freight transport in towns and cities is a major contributor to environmental impacts, particularly to local air pollution and noise. Urban Logistics addresses public policy makers, freight transport companies and receivers of supplies, providing them with the information and guidance to affect change in the logistics of the city.

Urban Logistics is written by an outstanding team of international editors combining their expertise and using their research from leading business schools in Sweden and the US. There are also valuable contributions from academics and industry experts from companies and universities from all over the world. The book includes clear examples of initiatives that work and business case developments, as well as toolkits for policymakers and managers who are devising new initiatives. There is an in-depth examination of different aspects of urban logistics, such as retail logistics for cities, urban food supply chains, services and the special logistics requirements involved, construction, waste management and e-commerce and home delivery. There is also a focus on networks and partnerships and an analysis of innovation as a new constant.



Understand the importance of city infrastructures, transport planning and the implications for urban logistics with this in-depth, research-based book.

Recenzijos

"Urban Logistics will give a competitive edge. It is rooted in the real-world experiences of leaders at the top of their game, sharing lessons learned from some of the most complex cities around the world." * Stacey D Hodge, former Director, Office of Freight Mobility, New York City Department of Transportation, USA * "'This book provides a powerful and topical set of authoritative chapters that address the rapidly changing scene of urban logistics, covering complexity, heterogeneity, innovation in delivery systems and technological advances. It provides a welcome addition to the international research in this growing area of transport and, as such, will be of interest to those involved in management, policy and innovation.'" * David Banister, Emeritus Professor of Transport Studies and Senior Research Fellow, University of Oxford, UK * "Management and regulation of urban freight transport is becoming increasingly important for operators, customers and policymakers. In spite of the importance of the subject, there is still a dearth of research, analysis and evaluations. This book will be useful for policymakers and for anyone needing to get a broad overview of this crucial and fast-moving field.'" * Jonas Eliasson, Director, Stockholm City Transportation Administration, Sweden *
