Urban Logistics

  • According to United Nations (2015), globally, more

people live in urban areas than in rural areas:

– 54% of the world’s population residing in urban areas in 2014 – By 2050, 66% of the world’s population is projected to be urban – Northern America (82%), Latin America and Caribbean (80%) and Europe (73%) are the most urbanized regions

  • European cities continue to grow:

– The level of urbanisation in Europe is expected to rise to 82% by 2050 (90% in DK, BE, and NL) 3

slide-4
SLIDE 4

Urban Logistics

  • A growing urban population will lead to increased

demand for goods and services, so increased demand for urban logistics

  • Urban Logistics may be defined as meaning the

movement of goods, equipment and waste into, out, from, within or through an urban area (European Commission, 2013).

SLIDE 5

Urban Logistics

  • Urban (city) logistics can contribute towards making

urban areas more attractive and productive (Taniguchi et al., 2014)

  • Urban freight transport is one of the main

challenges in this context:

– emissions, – pollution, – congestion, etc. 5

slide-6
SLIDE 6

Urban Logistics

  • Some data on urban freight transport:

– Urban freight is an important traffic component in cities (10-15% of vehicle equivalent Kilometres) – Urban freight is approximately 6% of all transport GHG emissions – The load factors for delivery vehicles in cities are very low (38% for vans in London)

  • Sustainable city logistics must be the solution to the

social, environmental and economic negative impacts caused by freight transport in many cities around the world (Grosso et al., 2014).

Reverse Logistics

  • In recent years, Reverse Logistics (RL) has attracted

the attention of companies and academia.

  • Apple, Canon, Caterpillar, Dell, Electrolux, Hewlett-

Packard, or IBM include Reverse Logistics practices in their operational processes.

  • RL is focused on the management of the recovery of

products once they are no longer desired or can no longer be used by consumers, in order to obtain an economic return through reuse, remanufacturing or recycling (Flapper et al. 2005).

7

slide-8
SLIDE 8

Reverse Logistics

Drivers for implementing RL systems:

  • Social reasons: CO2 emissions, waste generation,…
  • Legal reasons: Environmental legislation: WEEE,

packaging material, EOL vehicles, etc. Extended Producer Responsibility.

  • Economic reasons:
  • Direct: raw materials, disposal costs, added

value from returned products

  • Indirect: green image, improve customer

relationships

slide-9
SLIDE 9

Reverse Logistics

According to De Brito and Dekker (2004), RL can be defined as: “the process

  • f

planning, implementing and controlling backward flows of raw materials, in process inventory, packaging and finished goods, from a manufacturing, distribution or use point, to a point of recovery or point of proper disposal”

Challenges & Opportunities

  • In the European context some initiatives have been

developed:

– ERTRAC: European Road Transport Advisory Council – ALICE: Alliance for Logistics Innovation through Collaboration in Europe

  • The ERTRAC-ALICE goal:

To identify research priorities related to urban freight, returns and urban logistics in order to improve the efficiency, the sustainability and the safety of these activities

11

slide-12
SLIDE 12

Challenges & Opportunities

According to ERTRAC-ALICE initiative it is necessary to research the following issues:

  • Integration of direct and reverse flows: implications
  • f e-commerce, recycling and commercial returns .
  • Logistics management models in an increasing

recycling society urban environment .

  • Combining flow waste from industry (construction

material and the others) and domestic.

12

slide-13
SLIDE 13

Challenges & Opportunities

  • Reverse logistics developments in the field of the

design of networks for recovery of EoL products could be very useful.

  • Issues related to reverse logistics and urban freight

logistics to be analysed:

– Network design for waste management – Commercial returns in urban areas – Business trends: e-commerce, home and personalised deliveries. 13

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Analysis of commercial areas

  • Based on a methodology (Sanz & Pastor, 2009) that

helps to take decisions about how to design a logistic model able to achieve an efficient urban freight distribution in any given scenario.

  • Our contribution includes:

– A reverse logistics approach – A measurement scale – A quantitative example 14
