摘要：AbstractCity Logistics generally addresses inbound movements, from regions outside the city to the zone under City Logistics control. Integrating outbound and intra-city traffic may contribute to make freight transportation more efficient and less intrusive on mobility, the environment, and general quality-of-life conditions in the city. It may also raise significant managerial and methodological challenges, which increase with the degree of integration of fleets and operations. We describe and analyze a number of representative service-integration scenarios, discuss operational and managerial issues, examine corresponding methodological challenges, and identify associated research avenues.
