The paper provides a review of freight transport demand models for applications in urban
and metropolitan areas. The perspective adopted is the short-term one of public decision …

This paper presents a review of city logistics (also known as urban freight transportation)
modelling efforts reported in the literature for urban freight analysis. The review is based on …

This paper investigates the environmental impact of urban road freight in the Paris region,
focusing on pollutant emissions. We develop a modeling chain including a freight demand …

Increasing urbanization, and the environmental and liveability impacts associated with
urban activity, have directed attention to the need for sustainable cities. Achieving …

This paper proposes a model system developed in order to support ex-ante assessment of
city logistics measures. The model system allows us to simulate the choices of each decision …

Densifying cities continuously call for new construction, renovation and demolition projects,
each generating vast amounts of heavy goods vehicle (HGV) transports. However, how …

Collaboration between partners is a very popular subject in both logistics and decision
support research. However, transport management is often taken into account only as an …

Urban freight transport suffers from a significant modelling gap compared to passenger
transport. The target of this paper is to expose one of the first widely operable methods used …

This paper proposes a novel approach in order to simulate the impacts of urban goods
transport on road occupancy. It combines both inter-establishments flows and households' …

In this paper, a modelling framework to complete the recent scientific works on urban goods
modelling is proposed. More precisely, we introduce a substitution procedure that estimates …
