Funded Activity Summary

A modelling framework for designing more sustainable urban freight systems. How to improve the sustainability of goods movement in cities is a major challenge for society. City logistics involves numerous stakeholders, including carriers that are small and independent and have difficulty achieving high levels of efficiency. This project aims to develop an integrated modelling framework to facilitate the exploration of novel urban logistics initiatives that are more connected, collaborative, and open. The framework combines agent-based simulation, optimization, artificial intelligence and digital twin technologies to design and evaluate new schemes for improving the efficiency, reliability, and sustainability of urban logistics systems, which will alleviate congestion and the need for new road infrastructure.
