TL;DR: This paper surveys the vehicle routing problems met in cities for good distribution and identifies the principal scientific challenges that need to be addressed: time-dependency, multi-level and multi-trip organization of the distribution, dynamic information.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose an information systems theory approach for planning sustainable urban logistics systems with cross-docking and a scenario assessment and demand forecasting in urban freight transport planning.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce the two-echelon-capacitated vehicle routing problem (2E-CVRP) which is an extension of the classical VRP where the delivery passes through intermediate depots (called satellites), the goal is to deliver goods to customers with known demands, minimizing the total delivery cost while considering vehicle and satellites capacity constraints.

TL;DR: In this paper, a case study of Parma, Italy, where traffic regulations, delivery services and an urban distribution center have been implemented in order to improve efficiency and reduce the adverse impacts of urban food distribution within the city.

TL;DR: A novel approach in order to simulate the impacts of urban goods transport on road occupancy is proposed, which combines both inter-establishments flows and households’ motorized shopping trips, as well as B2C flows.
