These days, seamless moving about a city is a determinant of the city’s competitiveness, and is decisive for the life quality in the city. Hence, taking care of appropriate traffic organisation is one of the major tasks of the city authorities. Development of optimal production and spatial interrelations, considering their costs, efficiency and scope of services rendered to individual entities, enables economic and ecological development of the region. Therefore, the issue of major importance for a city is implementing a transport policy that makes it possible to choose a specified method of development (transformation) of the existing transport system in such a way so that it is coherent with the adopted strategy for the city development. The purpose of a transport policy conducted by city authorities should be maintaining the functioning of the urban transport on at least a satisfactory level. The main purpose of the article is to present an innovative solution for optimising the journeys of public transport vehicles, using the PERT (Program Evaluation and Review Technique) method. The method was developed on the basis of the research carried out in the city of Opole, Poland. The article presents a Multicriteria Model of Controlling the vehicles of the Municipal Public Transport-CVMPT) and the method implementation algorithm along with assumptions. The model presented in this article shows the possible way of optimising public transport systems operated in cities, taking into account the travel time of any given bus service, based on normal distribution and the computed probability of such traffic. The application of the method has brought many positive effects through providing optimisation measures in the structure of the municipal public transport.

As an idea, Freight Quality Partnership (FQP) has been worked on for a few years. Though most successfully implemented in the United Kingdom, these init6iatives were also positively implemented in other countries, amongst others under projects such as C-LIEGE. Presently, absence of analyses related to the FQP results awareness from the different city logistics stakeholders’ perspective is observed. With almost 10 years of experience in developing the FQP in Szczecin, the Authors conclude that this issue is of critical importance for future sustainable development and improvement of such initiatives. The paper focuses on analysis of the key city logistics stakeholders’ environmental awareness in the context of projects implemented under the Freight Quality Partnership, based on the example of Szczecin (Poland). It is as the emanation of the social and economic priority – the sustainability concept. Based on the relevant literature review, the Authors made an attempt to identify the ecological utility of FQP activities. Further, the paper presents the results of a questionnaire-based research depicting levels of environmental awareness, manifested by various groups of UFT stakeholders in Szczecin. The research has been divided into two parts – the first focuses on internal FQP stakeholders (FQP members), and the second focuses on external FQP stakeholders (various city users and local authorities). The results show in what manner different stakeholders’ groups recognize and assess the FQP activities.

Sustainable growth is a solution to reduce the negative effects of transport systems functioning in cities. It deals mainly with analysing the reasons for excessive exploitation and deterioration of the environment and specifying a strategy for limiting the process in the following areas: ecological, economic, social and cultural. The most effective activities in a sustainable urban transport policy combine all the aspects while minimising the costs connected with meeting the expected goals. Stakeholders' engagement is essential for the effectiveness of sustainable urban mobility plans. This paper proposes a tool for assessing the level of maturity of the engagement of urban freight transport stakeholders, comparing cities in Brazil, Poland and Norway. We proposed the minimum requirements of stakeholders' engagement and levels of maturity based on the literature. A comparative analyse was performed. The results indicate that Brazilian cities represent a low level of maturity, Polish cities represent intermediary level, and Norway cities, mainly Oslo, represent the more advanced level of maturity in the stakeholder’s engagement. The results also indicated that the cities with sustainable urban mobility plans represent the highest level of maturity in the stakeholder’s engagement.

A city as a system that constitutes one of the most important areas of human activities. The significant role to fulfill their expectations pay the goods transport and deliveries. These issues are the subject of urban logistics. In broad terms, urban logistics may be construed as a number of processes focused on freight flows, which are completed in cities, including deliveries, supply, goods transfer, services, etc. Due to the different urban logistics stakeholders’ expectations, these systems generate many challenges for managers, especially in the context of city users’ needs and their quality of life. Today, there is a lack of broadened approach and methodology to support them from the processes’ efficiency perspective. To fulfill this gap, the purpose of this paper is to apply the Six Sigma method as a support in last mile delivery management. Six Sigma method plays important role in production systems processes management. However, it could be useful in much wider perspective, including transport and logistics processes. The Authors emphasize that the Six Sigma method could be efficient approach in the last mile delivery processes’ analysis in the context of their efficiency. It helps positioning the customer satisfaction level and quantify the delivery processes defects, related to the undelivered goods. Following that it could improve significantly the last mile delivery processes efficiency. The concept is illustrated by a sample evaluation of one of the urban logistics processes: completion of deliveries. To this end, urban logistics processes were defined. In particular, the delivery completion process was mapped, and the process client was defined along with their expectations. The defects that occurred in the process were identified and analyzed. A DPMO (Defect per Million Opportunities) indicator was established for three randomly selected months. In addition, a root cause analysis of errors was performed. The sigma level for the studied process ranged from 2.61 to 2.89. The factor that had the greatest impact on the number of defects defined as failed deliveries was customer’s absence. The obtained results indicate that the delivery process should be examined in more detail.

Food product transportation is one of the most problematic tasks considering the specific expectations in the context of the transport conditions. It seems to be a significant challenge for the freight carriers’ decision-makers. The proper organization and management of that process is the basis for the appropriate fulfilment of the needs of customers, related, among others, to the proper quality of delivered products (such as freshness, expiration date, etc.). The additional challenge in this context is the efficient delivery at the city area, taking into account typical city transportation problems, such as congestion, narrow ways, lack of the unloading areas, etc. The role of these tasks is analyzed in this paper, on the basis of the chosen parameters and technologies of the transportation process. The purpose of this paper is to study the rational freight fleet formation in the case of changing the parameters of material flow in time. It was found that with the other unchanged parameters of material flow, the change in ambient temperature affects the technological process of transportation, the type of vehicle for its movement and the structure of the vehicle fleet. Accordingly, the types of vehicles (tent or insulated) necessary for the movement of certain material flows, which require special conditions for their transportation, have been determined, in compliance with the temperature regime and periods of their use. The organization scenarios of the transport service of the studied distribution processes were proposed, taking into consideration the change in conditions for the transportation of material flow, purchase of insulated semitrailers or their rent. The proposed versions were calculated and evaluated under the given conditions, and based on the net present value, the best of the proposed options was found: the purchase of one insulated semi-trailer while hiring the remaining insufficient insulated vehicles.

Mobile apps are online services offered in smartphones, combining data, functionality and user interface to the customer. In urban freight transport, app-based services are increasingly focused on last-mile delivery. This paper presents a mobile app to unloading zones developed by Belo Horizonte municipality. The initial purpose of this app is identifying the unloading bays used by carriers. Since June 2019, the municipality launched the “rotativo digital” app. The first results show a progressive increase in the number of users of the application. In general, those who download the app, use it regularly. However, there is resistance in the download of the application by the drivers. In addition, the most used loading and unloading areas were identified. From the lessons learned, it is important to use technology to collect data on urban freight transport. Educational and inspection campaigns can encourage more users to use the application. Knowledge about the type of data and its benefits for urban planning can be vital to its success.

The European Council has set the target to reduce European greenhouse gas emissions by 20% till 2020. The negative impacts of urban goods distribution are mainly caused by used vehicles (e.g. diesel-powered) and low system efficiency (e.g. low loading factor, low cooperation). The paper is focused on the introduction of the activities realized under new project – Low Carbon Logistic. It’s realized under the Interreg South Baltic Programme. The major objective of this project is to implement the low carbon city logistics measures in 5 pilot cities as well as to promote and support this kind of activities in South Baltic Region. The aim of the paper is to introduce the assumptions for the activities realized in pilot cities. The planned results will be mostly focused on development of consolidation systems and implementation of alternative fuelled vehicles (EV and cargo-bikes). Also the major elements of LCL approach have been introduced.

Urban freight transport is a part of a complex system comprising a considerable number of various participants, numerous limitations, fragmentation of goods flows, which decreases the transport effectiveness, pivotal connections in supply chains, and also the risk of conflicts between expectations of particular stakeholders. The problems require that a well-thought approach to implementation decision making should be applied. A prerequisite for a correctly implemented process of urban freight transport optimisation and rationalisation is an ex ante, in-depth analysis of the current situation and condition of a given urban system, a well performed assessment of obtained results and correct identification of goals for future actions. The paper is focused on the methodological assumptions for the implementation of the city logistics measures based on the adaptability and transferability approach. The major objective is to establish the general framework for this kind of activities.

Fleet Management Systems (FMS) allows to manage a significant amount of spatially distributed objects, providing real-time information about its status and location, as well as information about the environment in which they are located. The amount of information that contemporary FMS can provide to decision makers is enormous and allows for a significant facilitation of transport optimization processes. This means that these systems can be an important support also for the implementation of tasks related to the operation of urban freight transport. The main problem, however, is the selection of the right tool among the many available on the market. The paper uses elements of the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) to evaluate selected Fleet Management Systems from the perspective of the end-user’s needs, with particular emphasis on increasing the time and economic efficiency of the management process.

Urban areas are centres of business and innovation. Freight transport is indispensable for the proper functioning of any modern urban society. Urban areas cannot function without an appropriate freight transport system, due to the need to replenish stocks of food and other goods in retail shops. The complexity of the decisions concerning implementation of measures to improve the movement of goods in the city requires tools designed to support this process. In this context, a research gap and a research problem occur—how to obtain a reliable set of factors for development of sustainable urban freight transport (UFT). The purpose of this article is to introduce the possibility of applying the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) as well as the Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory Method (DEMATEL) in choosing a set of measures and in analysing the field of distribution logistics, which will help to solve delivery problems and streamline cargo flow in Szczecin, in the context of sustainable development. This paper presents the findings of a survey in which experts evaluate the main coefficients for sustainable freight transport in the city area. Using both AHP and DEMATEL methods, we have concluded that: (i) all coefficients from administrative, financial, technical and promotional measures are highly interconnected; (ii) strategy of freight transport development should take into consideration how these coefficients influence each other; (iii) P2—eco-driving trainings, T4—alternative delivery systems and P1—promotional campaigns for sustainable transport are the most important criteria and should be priorities for investments; (iv) A1—implementation of loading/unloading and transit restrictions—highly influences other coefficients; (v) T2—intelligent route guidance in freight transport is greatly influenced by them.

This article focuses on the role of Urban Freight Transport (UFT) projects in improving the life quality of city inhabitants. The main focus of the deliberations is the aspect of UFT projects’ durability. The authors take an original approach to the definition of UFT project durability and also provide the results of a research study carried out in 2018. This made it possible to furnish an answer to the research questions that boiled down to the analysis of the current status of the relevant academic literature, to attempt to define the total durability of a UFT project, and to indicate the critical gaps in perception among the key stakeholders of the projects. In this study, particular attention is paid to the terminological synthesis and the conclusion resulting from adopting induction and deduction as the methods of solving research study problems. A novelty is the approach adopted in the project evaluation emphasising the mentioned durability aspect as one of the major success factors. This is particularly important for implementation of a Freight Quality Partnership as a solution enabling development of sustainable systems of urban logistics. The solution was treated as a specific implementation project for which the issue of key importance is the identification of success factors in the context of satisfying the needs of diverse groups of UFT stakeholders. It should be stressed that durability of projects in the area of UFT is critically important, even though there is a significant conceptual gap in that regard. The research study involved the originally developed concept of the Pyramid of Stakeholders Survey. By means of this concept, FQP durability was analysed on the example of the experience gained in the course of the solution functioning in Szczecin.

Social cost‐benefit analysis (SCBA) aims to assess whether the planned solution will bring greater social benefits than the expenditure incurred. This chapter focuses on the assumptions of SCBA for implementing urban freight transport projects. Social benefits resulting from the introduction of individual solutions / best practice in city logistics are due to the reduction of external costs. Therefore, measurable social benefits are the difference in external costs generated before and after the introduction of the solution. External costs generated by urban freight transport are mostly environmental costs covering the cost of climate change, air pollution and noise and congestion costs associated with the increase in travel time and transport accidents. Determination of external costs requires a very detailed identification of the number of vehicles entering the area by type, capacity and Euro norm.

Atmospheric emissions of anthropogenic origin are one of the most important problems in cities. A particularly discrete ecological footprint in urban environment is made by urban freight transport. This problem has become the key challenge for all stakeholder groups involved in freight transport in urban areas. Over the recent years, there has been a growing interest in using alternative fuel vehicles in urban logistics, including those equipped with electric drive systems. This paper presents a multi-criteria analysis (MCA) of selected electric vehicles (EVs) in the context of their application for the purposes of deliveries in cities. In methodological terms, we present a unique MCA-based approach for evaluation of Electric Freight Vehicles (EFVs). A successful attempt is made to build a multistep MCA procedure based on two carefully selected MCDA methods (PROMETHEE II and fuzzy TOPSIS) to handle both certain and uncertain data sets in a single decision process. In practical terms, we successfully demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed approach by creating a set of decision maker’s preference models (based on certain and uncertain data) of carefully selected EFVs and provide sensitivity and robustness analyses of the obtained solutions.

One of the key factors necessary for controlling the increasing disorder in the area of urban freight transport and conditioning its sustainable growth is ensuring effective data flows between individual parties engaged, to a smaller or greater extent, in its functioning. Lack of knowledge regarding cargo streams and their direction, structure etc. makes it difficult to control and manage them so as to limit their negative impact on the city organism, particularly on the environment and inhabitants. Additionally, development of information society and continuous digitalisation of different areas of life make it necessary to get control over the data resources regarding urban freight transport, as it is becoming indispensable for its correct functioning. This paper is focused on determining the structures of data relevant for the functioning of sustainable urban freight transport, and establishing the sources of data acquisition.

The result of ecological aspects being taken into consideration in human activities and aiming at an optimization of the chains of deliveries is an intention to close the loop of deliveries. One of the ways to achieve this aim is an application of the concept of ecologistics. While waste constitutes one of the main elements of ecologistics, it poses the most serious threat to the natural environment. The state’s ecologic policy for the years of 2002–2010 was a document to support the activities of communes aimed at environmental protection. Long-term objectives are to be realized within the framework of the Strategy of the Sustainable Development of Poland by the Year 2025. In this article, an attempt was undertaken of a critical interpretation of American and European views in this area. The possibilities of the optimization and polyoptimization of the behaviors of individual and group inhabitants in the context of logistics chains modelling were highlighted. Standardized indexes will permit an effective assessment of the behaviors of a human or a given society referred to the economic (business) values in an area determined by the necessity of the functioning of ecologistic chains (this activity is proper to the objectives of designing and an objective assessment of the functioning of ecologistic chains).
