LOGISTICS
Logistics is that part of the supply chain process that plans,
implements, and controls the efficient, effective flow and
storage of goods, services, and related information
from the point of origin to the point of consumption
in order to meet customers’ requirements
Chapter 2
INNER URBAN FREIGHT TRANSPORT AND CITY LOGISTICS
IMPORTANCE OF CITY LOGISTIC
High rate of urbanisation in Europe
Delivery and supply of transport are very cost intensive
Environmental sensitivity of urban areas
• Air pollution
• Noise emissions
Economic competitivity of urban areas
Chapter 2
INNER URBAN FREIGHT TRANSPORT AND CITY LOGISTICS
COMPONENTS OF THE LOGISTICAL PROCESS
PRODUCTION i.e. the qualitative change of a good
DECONSOLIDATION i.e. shipments are united or dispersed
STORAGE i.e. goods are stored until they are called for by consumers
CONSUMPTION i.e. goods are consumed or further changed qualitatively
DISPOSAL i.e. used goods are disposed as waste
Chapter 2

PASSAGERS - GOODS
Passangers Goods
Travel (active) Must be loaded, unloaded and transferred
Board, get off and transfer without assistance
The information must be processed through logistics managers
Process information and act on it without assistance
Logistics managers meet choices between means of transport
rationally
Meet choices between means of transport without assistance but
often irrationally
Must be loaded, unloaded and transferred

POSSIBILITIES FOR CITY DELIVERY
• Receivers without self-coordinated delivery logistics
• Receivers with distribution company coordinated delivery logistics
• Receivers with self-coordinated logistics
Chapter 3
Individual forms of organizations
Superordinated forms of public organizations
• Goods distributions centres
• Freight villages

LACK OF OVERSIGHT FOR THE ENTIRE SYSTEM
Chapter 3
Freight transport is normally based on rational decisions
• One aspires to minimal operation cost
Should lead to a reduced use of resources
However, many transport processes are not optimal from a macroeconomic perspective
• The several subsystems (involved companies) are too small
• Subsystems are optimised under the constraint of business without taking into account the entire system

SUBOPTIMAL TRANSPORT CHAINS FROM A MACROECONOMIC PERSPECTIVE
Companies tend to avoid breakpoints in the transport chain
Chapter 3
Short-haul vehicles (e.g. vans) are used also for midlength and long stretches
Combined transport (Rail - Road) is rarely used

NO FURTHER BUNDLING OF TRIPS
Chapter 3
No interest by the enterprises involved (receivers/distribution companies)
• des Single enterprises are in competiton with one another
• en Doesn‘t go along with internal process optimisation

GOODS DISTRIBUTIONS CENTRE (City Terminal)
At a Goods distribution centre all goods flows with
destination city centre are consolidated and compiled to new
loads. The aim of a city terminal is the Minimisation of the
number of Delivery Tips in City Centres.

FREIGHT VILLAGES
Freight villages are industry zones with the best connections to
the transport network, where freight transport intensive
enterprises, are established. Ideally, they have the equipment for the
transhipment between different transport modes.

NEW TRANSHIPMENT TECHNOLOGIES
Chapter 4
Why?
• Cheaper transhipment
• Separation of long distance transport and short distance transport
• Adequate vehicles for short distance transport
• Promotion of rail transport

Chapter 4
Why?
• More adequate load units for supply and delivery
• Cheaper deconsolidation
• Long distance container = short distance container
• No interruption in transport chain
• Better degree of utilisation of the loading capacity
