“…A GIS analysis of the study area can play the role of defining spatial constraints and inhibiting spatially unfeasible alternatives; a PPGIS could allow the inclusion of VGI data from citizens that, in their various forms, such as photos, videos, audios, or textual statements, can constitute a basis to build the state of the art. Besides, in-depth interviews with "key informants" can be useful to enrich the information obtained via VGI and define the decision-making structure [112].…”

Transport decision-making problems are typically spatially based and involve a set of feasible alternatives with multiple evaluation criteria. Besides, transport decisions affect citizens’ quality of life, as well as specific interests of general stakeholders (e.g., transport companies), thus needing a participatory approach to decision-making. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have the ability to visualize spatial data and represent the impact of location based transport alternatives, thus helping experts to conduct robust assessments. Moreover, with the recent diffusion of Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) and development of Public Participatory GIS (PPGIS) platforms, the process can be enhanced thanks to the collection of a large amount of updated spatial data and the achievement of an active community participation. In this study, we provide an overview based on a structured literature review of the use of VGI and PPGIS in transport studies, exploring the fields of application, role played by GIS, level of public involvement and decision stage at which they are applied. From the overview’s results, we propose a general framework for the evaluation of transport alternatives using GIS from a multiple stakeholder point of view; the main conclusion is the usefulness of the integration between Public Participation, GIS and quantitative evaluation methods, in particular Multi Criteria Decision Analysis, in order to foster technically sound and shared decisions.

Transport Service Provider Perception of Barriers and Urban Freight Policies in Brazil

et al. 2019

The aim of this paper is to analyze the perceptions of the transport service providers on the barriers in urban freight transport and the restrictions imposed on freight vehicles, identifying which urban freight transport policies can improve this activity in Brazil. Principal component analysis allowed us to identify which are barriers in urban cargo transport and the restrictions imposed on freight vehicles. In addition, we evaluated freight policies that can improve the activity using probabilistic preference. We obtained the database from a web-based survey of transport service providers in Brazil. The results indicate that the urban freight vehicle restriction is related to congestion and availability of loading and unloading areas. The freight vehicle restriction is a result of the lack of information and data. The theft of cargo significantly impacts urban freight transport. Transport service provider company perceptions indicate an urban mobility plan as the most-required freight policy to improve freight mobility. To reduce the barriers to urban freight planning, an understanding of the problem involving the stakeholders is needed. To do so, the challenge is to change the culture in the transportation planning process by integrating various actors to create an urban logistics plan that generates opportunities for the city.

“…Modelling the behavior, the objectives, and thus the collaboration of stakeholders has become important for planning several city logistics activities [21][22][23] and achieving city logistics solutions [9,[16][17][18]. This implies that stakeholder collaboration can contribute to sustainable growth of a city, appropriate development of urban resources, and development of low-impact urban planning and transportation systems [24,25]. Stakeholder collaboration is also required for them to form mutual motives and goals [26,27], which is a success factor for implementing city logistics initiatives [14], as the way many stakeholders collaborate during the implementation process can affect the way they behave [18,28], which emphasizes the importance of analyzing stakeholders' collaboration procedures and their different needs and constrains in relation to city logistics strategies.…”

According to [24,28,29], the consideration of such collaboration is a success factor for city logistics initiatives. Without a common understanding between stakeholders, it might be difficult to obtain sustainable city logistics initiatives [9,14,15,19].…”

The main purpose of the paper is to explore the importance of stakeholders’ interaction in the different stages of the implementation process of city logistics initiatives and to assess the extent to which interaction may vary between two apparently similar initiatives. A comparative, longitudinal study, with data from two Swedish city logistics initiatives is conducted. The findings highlight the multiple stakeholders’ interaction and suggest that various degrees of such interaction can be beneficial for sustainable city logistics initiatives. The study demonstrates that although the interactions can be considered broadly similar, there are differences that have an impact on the implementation and development of such initiatives over time. It also highlights the relevance of integrating initiatives with existing networks to provide longer-term viability in the implementation process.
