“…da distância percorrida e do tempo de operação; os varejistas julgam o nıvel de e8iciência muito baixo enquanto as autoridades locais o consideram e8iciente. Apesar disto, os resultados de Carvalho et al (2019) para Ouro Preto indicam que a consolidação de cargas contribui para a melhora do nıvel de serviço e prosperidade local (competitividade econômica em termos de rendimentos e nıveis de emprego gerados).…”

A Política Nacional de Mobilidade Urbana regulamenta a acessibilidade e a mobilidade de pessoas e mercadorias nos centros urbanos. No entanto, os gestores públicos aparentam conferir menor importância ao transporte urbano de carga (TUC) em comparação ao transporte público de passageiros. Nesse sentido, esse artigo tem por objetivo investigar se os Planos de Mobilidade Urbana (PlanMobs) têm incorporado a gestão do TUC. Para tanto, foi conduzida uma pesquisa tipo survey com os gestores públicos para identificar a importância do TUC para a mobilidade urbana, bem como analisar os conteúdos dos PlanMobs com referência ao TUC por meio da técnica ‘Análise de Conteúdo’. Os resultados mostram que a mobilidade da carga está sendo contemplada de forma superficial nos PlanMobs e, de certa forma, negligenciada pelos gestores públicos.

The purpose of the work is to determine objective criteria that can serve as the basis for complementing state statistics systems to assess the full potential of the logistics services market. Countries and world statistical systems have to highlight new competitive advantages of territories, regions, and states. Applying a systematic approach, economical methods for processing special data, and an analysis of data arrays we obtained a system of statistical indicators comprising five elemental databases, that allowed to assess logistics attractiveness of the subjects of the Central Federal District of the Russian Federation and Russia's logistics attractiveness relative to some other countries. The developed rating complements and refines the existing methods for assessing the investment attractiveness of regions. Evaluating the data to formulate the logistic attractiveness rating reveals additional competitive factors for certain territories, since the developed rating technique outlines the quantitative boundaries of the parameters of the created logistics infrastructure.

“…The complexity of the urban distribution of goods is shown by the increase in the movement and delivery rate of goods, which result in traffic congestion and negative impacts on the city's residents and on the environment [1]. In the centers and outskirts of large cities, the issue is even more severe because there is an assortment of small retailers, narrow streets [2] and a high concentration of pedestrians [3], as well as in heritage cities, where there are clusters of historical buildings and tourists [4,5]. In both cases, local authorities have usually implemented regulations, such as delivery time windows, delivery zones, vehicle weight and size, congestion charges, low-emission zones, pick-up deliveries and other restrictions for the central areas [6].…”

“…In both cases, local authorities have usually implemented regulations, such as delivery time windows, delivery zones, vehicle weight and size, congestion charges, low-emission zones, pick-up deliveries and other restrictions for the central areas [6]. However, in some historical cities, the lack of control methods for the land use and for protection of historical areas is still a problem [4]. A viable solution would be to establish urban distribution centers (UDCs) close to the customers' location, although at the same time, it challenges governmental regulations incurring high costs.…”

“…Differently to some participatory approaches [8,9,[11][12][13] that involve the stakeholders in a decision-making process interactively, our proposal contributes to the state-of-the-art by providing a generic structure, based on a set of criteria according to the stakeholders' preferences. While the latest studies have discussed the importance of certain criteria to implement UDCs in historical cities [4,5], including the residents' opinion, the present study proposes an innovative methodological approach, which is inspired by the statistical techniques and Multiple-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) concepts, to provide a generic structure that can be applied for implementing UDCs in historical cities. The proposed approach directly accounts for the opinions of the main stakeholders involved in urban freight distribution (i.e., traffic wardens who control the local traffic and enforce the legislation; retailers who receive the goods; and carriers who deliver the goods).…”

This paper proposes a structure for sustainable implementation of urban distribution centers (UDCs) in historical cities, considering the opinion of the main stakeholders involved in the urban distribution of goods and a set of additional criteria. Based on a survey that was conducted among carriers, traffic wardens, and retailers, a decision hierarchy structure, consisting of the relevant criteria evaluated by various statistical techniques, will be used for sustainable implementation of UDCs. The methodology uses a database collected in the historical center of Ouro Preto, a Brazilian city which contains common characteristics of other Latin American and some European cities that are included in the World Heritage List. This structure is unique, as it is based on a survey among the main stakeholders, and can be applied by logistics operators and local authorities for implementing UDCs to address urban distribution issues, especially in historical cities. However, without loss of generality, the proposed methodology can be adopted for different cities using the appropriate criteria according to the characteristics of the cities.
