The Routledge Handbook of Urban Logistics offers a state of the
art, comprehensive overview of the discipline of urban and city
logistics. The COVID-19 pandemic and the rise in internet shopping
in particular has placed new demands on urban logistics which
require innovative technological and policy responses. Similarly,
the necessity for sustainable urban logistics offers both a
challenge and opportunity for development and seeks to address
traffic congestion, local air quality, traffic related degradation,
the use of energy, safety aspects and noise. Featuring
contributions from world-leading, international scholars, the
chapters examine concepts, issues and ideas across six topic areas
that reflect the increasingly diverse nature of current research
and thinking in urban logistics: key features of urban logistics,
freight transport, sectors in urban logistics, technical aspects,
policy, and environmental and social sustainability. Each chapter
provides an overview of current knowledge, identifies issues,
discusses the relevant debates in urban logistics and the future
research agenda. This handbook offers a single repository on the
current state of knowledge, written from a practical perspective,
utilising theory that is applied and developed using real-work
examples. It is an essential reference for researchers, academics
and students working in all areas of urban logistics, from policy
and planning to technology and sustainability, in addition to
industry practitioners looking to develop their professional
knowledge.
