Providing an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of city
logistics and urban freight research, this Handbook offers
multidisciplinary insights on the key theories, themes and pressing
issues common to urban and metropolitan landscapes. Top scholars
from a broad range of disciplines, including economics,
engineering, business and management, political science and urban
planning, analyse the five most significant areas characterizing
urban freight transport: modelling, operations, planning,
stakeholder engagement, and innovation. Chapters examine key topics
including integrated transportation and land-use processes,
sustainability in urban freight transportation, and the
relationship between e-commerce and urban logistics. Fully
cross-referenced throughout, the Handbook offers a forward-looking
perspective on the topic, discussing the ways to improve urban
freight and city logistics, particularly in line with the drive
towards sustainable practices. An essential read for urban studies,
planning and transport geography students and scholars, this
stimulating Handbook showcases a participatory approach to
understanding city logistics operations and transport planning.
Detailing practical solutions, it will also be beneficial to
operations management, economics and transport practitioners and
policymakers looking for a deeper understanding of how to improve
urban freight and city logistics operations in our modern world.
