URBAN GOODS TRANSPORT

Obiettivo

The reduction of air pollution, noise and energy consumption by optimising the use of lorries in city traffic by the application of modern logistical devices and appropriate administrative measures.
Administrative measures and logistical methods employed in the operation of lorry fleets will be examined to see which could best contribute to reducing environmental impact.
The measures and methods will then be examined for economic efficiency and environmental benefits in demonstration projects, taking into account direct and indirect effects on traffic flow and the location of commercial activities.
The demonstration of the economic efficiency of such logistical measures of vehicle fleet management should indicate how they can be applied more widely in the private sector.
The project aims to use-pilot studies for scale-demonstration purposes, so that the work programme should be considered as a preliminary approach, whose results will serve, in particular, to :
widen our knowledge, internationally, of the effects and acceptability of the measures ;
prepare the way for the introduction of appropriate measures in Europe as a whole ;
increase public awareness of the problems caused by urban goods traffic and the need for international co-operation in this field.

Current status
The programme is structured in two different working groups :
group A reviewing the logistic or administrative measures already tried or planned by transport operators ;
group B simulating the effectiveness of measures by appropriate methods.

A cross-sectorial survey of metropolitan areas was made in order to obtain information about measures already in place or planned, which has been followed by an overall economic and ecological evaluation. After collation and exchange of information of the state of the art in the different COST countries involved in the Action, a more detailed review of these measures and their effects in participating countries has been made.
A selection of measures and test sites to be analysed through quantitative methods has been obtained from the previous stages. A study on direct links between specific measures and their effectiveness and on the indirect effectiveness of the measures on traffic in general in the pilot metropolitan areas are being accomplished by collecting information on rationalisation measures relating to company owned vehicle pools ; their effects will be ascertained from business sector decision makers in selected sectors and by developing modelling tools.
Recommendations for converting individual measures or groups of measures into pilot actions or demonstrations should also be issued, and the need for specific action deduced from the latter.
Contracts
Contract to the company TNO for the development of the Study mentioned above on "Urban Goods Transport. State of the Art, Description and First Assessment of Selected Measures".
Contract with the company Nordik Transport Udvikling (NTU, The Netherlands), for the management of the Short Term Scientific Missions related to the action.

Work planned
The length of the Action has been prolonged one more year, in order to realise more fully the objectives of the Action. In particular, this will allow the completion and the analysis of the simulation test results.
