Solutions to the Problem of Freight Transport Flows in Urban Logistics

The operation of a city’s logistics system is associated with many problematic issues, for example, intense pollution and negative impacts on the environment, uneven intensity traffic flows, other problems. This article focuses heavy transport because it causes disruptions in supply affects timely customer service. Optimization processes are route selection, deployment centers, need cargo consolidation–de-consolidation, which leads to possibility using PPP (public–private partnership) method practice. A unique aspect this research related problems first last mile use elements “sharing economy”. Therefore, aims analyze challenges role significance urban logistics. For that purpose, addition an analysis scientific sources, expert survey was conducted responses questions optimizing flows city were analyzed. study data processed Kendall’s correlation coefficient, concordance method, consistency coefficient. During analysis, average rank transformation weights (ARTIW) subjective normalized main factors have greatest influence determined. Groups interested parties also named separately, whom results formulated decision may be relevant. Based research, recommendation development small collection distribution services through self-service terminals located outskirts cities. Proposals presented reorganize system, provide details new infrastructure suburban terminals, encourage environmentally friendly vehicles lower carrying capacity.
