Direct Effects of City Logistics Measures and Urban Freight Demand Models

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Sustainable Urban Logistics: Concepts, Methods and Information Systems

Part of the book series: EcoProduction ((ECOPROD))

Abstract

This chapter proposes a general integrated demand modeling system developed within a simulation system to forecast both internal (transportation cost variations) and external (variations of pollution, noise and road accidents) direct effects of city logistics measures. In the first part, the paper considers the shopping and restocking components of urban freight mobility and the relative actor’s choices that can be influenced by city logistics measures. The road simulation system is then considered with its various components, and the demand models are analyzed with particular attention to shopping demand models.
