“…Kot smo ugotovili, je mestni tovorni transport ključen za učinkovito premikanje blaga in materialov znotraj mestnih območij, saj lahko le na ta način zagotovimo nemoteno oskrbo trgovin, poslovnih subjektov in končnih potrošnikov. Značilnosti mestnega tovornega transporta [102]:…”

Uvod učbenika se posveča temeljnim pojmom, ki so potrebni za razumevanje področja logistike, in aktualnim logističnim izzivom. Skozi nadaljevanje so predstavljene bistvene sestavine logističnega sistema, njegove funkcije in pomen logistike za delovanje družbe. Poseben poudarek je namenjen logistiki v poslovnih procesih, povezanih z nabavo, proizvodnjo, prodajo in poprodajnimi ter razbremenilnimi vidiki. Opisani in razloženi so vidiki upravljanja logističnih procesov, pri čemer je poseben poudarek na oskrbovalnih verigah in mestni logistiki. Zadnji del učbenika je namenjen prihodnjemu razvoju logistike, pri čemer so podrobneje opisani procesi fizičnega interneta. Na koncu vsakega poglavja so zastavljena vprašanja, ki spodbujajo kritični razmislek z željo, da študentje raziskujejo področje logistike preko mej tega učbenika.

“…3D printing will enable manufacturing of specialized products at decentralized locations, closer to customers. In the long run, this will reduce freight traffic, especially distribution of goods and the need for reloading of parcels for last mile delivery [13,54]. It will also reduce inventory in warehouses and retail stores as well as packaging waste.…”

City logistics is subject to constant development, generated by new logistics trends and high customers’ expectations. With the aim of creating an effective, acceptable, and sustainable city logistics policy, it is therefore essential to understand logistics trends and their expected impact on the development of urban freight transport in the future. In this paper, we explore and compare the expectations of public authorities, business, and academia regarding the short-, medium-, and long-term impacts of different logistics trends on urban logistics. Following a literature review, the expert survey was used to assess the expected impact and time horizon. According to the respondents, “e-commerce”, “automated vehicles”, “electric vehicles”, “grey power logistics”, “omni-channel logistics”, and the “desire for speed” will have the greatest impact on urban freight transport in the future. An interesting observation concerns some differences of opinion between public and private stakeholders. In general, the business community believes that the identified trends will have a greater impact on urban logistics in a shorter period of time, while public authorities believe that the mentioned trends will have a less strong impact on urban logistics in a longer time scale. This shows the need for more active collaboration between them in the policy-making process.

“…For efficient delivery to city centers, it is therefore very important to determine the optimal number, capacity, and location of loading bays and to establish an effective management system. In practice, we often encounter the problem of the limited number and capacity of loading bays in urban centers, which as a rule do not have an established system of management and reservation [13]. As there is often no overview of their occupancy, lorries (especially during peak hours) often have difficulty finding a free loading bay near the delivery address.…”

Urban freight deliveries are often subject to many access restrictions which creates the need to establish a system of loading bays and to split the last mile delivery into driving and walking parts. A new model based on hard and soft clustering approach is developed to solve the loading bay assignment problem for efficient vehicle routing and walking in last mile delivery. The flexibility of the model is provided by the soft clustering approach based on different membership degrees of customers to loading bays. Especially for instances with large numbers of loading bays, soft clustering seems to give better results, it leads to higher flexibility of city logistics systems, minimal driving distances, and adequately short walking paths, which contribute to the goal of reaching sustainable urban freight deliveries.
