Urban Logistics offers unique tailor-made solutions for the transport of goods in cities by consolidating & rationalizing the existing logistics platforms and creating innovative solutions for the future through the use of information and communication technologies.
Over the past two decades delivering goods into cities has become a challenge with cities getting overly congested and traffic jams resulting in expensive logistics bottlenecks. Studies show that the cost of congestion now in terms of time wasted in traffic and fuel consumption is off the roof, almost 200% more than what it was in the 1980s. Pollution, lack of parking bays, and warehousing costs are all restraints that are contributing to the economic cost of urban logistics.
This presentation, part of a class work of Erwan Le Roc'h, Antony Zouzout and Rémi Philippe at ESSEC will explore the possibilities and ideal mix for this kind of project.
This presentation was delivered by Peter Jones from University College London on 2nd October 2015 and highlighted the importance of considering Link and Place when improving street design.

RV 2014: HSR for Midsize Cities: TOD Lessons from Near and Far by Eric EidlinRail~Volution
HSR for Midsize Cities: TOD Lessons from Near and Far
High-speed rail is here. California and the Midwest are both planning HSR corridors to serve large and midsize cities within the next decade or two. Cities are working closely with agencies to carefully plan TOD to serve both statewide and local needs. Explore lessons, both pragmatic and visionary, from around the world. Start in Germany and France, then turn to more local experiences in Wisconsin and California. Hear from high-level state agency representatives, researchers and professionals experienced in HSR station area planning. Learn how they are working with federal, state and local agencies on TOD to address economic development; respond to climate change legislation; integrate public transit networks; and create dense activity centers within walking distance to future HSR stations.

In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

2. The characteristics of Downtown
• The centre of social and economic activity, the city core or focus of
activity in a city
• It has mixed land uses (Commercial, retail, administrative,
entertainment, government (capital cities),education, residential.
• Dense high capacity, often multi-modal, PT networks
• High travel demand -Mass movement of people and goods,
• Congestion
3. Congestion is Not New, or Linked to Cars
• Lex Julia Municipalis banned wheeled traffic from
Rome c 45 BC
• Worshipful Company of Carmen formed in London in
1517 “For the Regulation of City Transport”
• "The King's Highway is not to be used as a stable
yard” Chief Justice Ellenborough 1812
• 1838 City of London licences carts and carriages to
stand and ply for hire in licensed standing places “the
world’s first controlled parking!”
• The first parking meter 1930’s
• Parking Restrictions (1950’s/60’s)
• Paris Axe Rouge/London Red Routes 1980’s
4. Prohibiting Cars
Cities don’t prohibit cars; they :
• Create pedestrian zones/ walking areas/bus, tram
only streets.
• Madrid - Barrio de las letras, Area de Prioridad
Residencial
• These have to be balanced with access needs of
businesses, homes etc.
• So either part time/all time service access
5. Pedestrian Streets
York (UK)
(largest pedestrian zone in Europe)
• Major tourist destination
• Major Retail Centre
• Regional employment centre
• Foot streets(part time access),
• Park and Ride and City centre parking
• Rail Hub
• Developed large system of foot-streets
linked to extensive P+R network
6. Pedestrian + Public Transport
Zagreb (Croatia)
Trg Ban Jelačić or Main
Square and environs
• Fully pedestrianised
• Tram access
• Service access to square and
surrounding streets
7. Prohibiting Cars
Downtown Manhattan NYC
(USA)
• For security not environment
• What happened to commerce -
100 shares index 2007- to date
+15%
9. Cars and Commerce
London Retail Study
• More parking does not necessarily mean greater commercial success.
• Shopkeepers consistently overestimate the share of their customers
coming by car, by up to 400%. In cities, the share of those accessing
urban centres on foot or by public transport is much greater.
• Car drivers spend more on a single trip; walkers and bus users spend
more over a week or a month. In 2011, in London walkers spent £147
more per month than those travelling by car. Compared with 2004, spending
by public transport users and walkers has risen; spending by car users and
cyclists has decreased.
10. Cars and Commerce
London Congestion Charge
• C 20% reduction in downtown car traffic but,
• Car mode share about 15%, so
• Only about 3% of trips affected and
• More and better buses.
• London
is
doing
just
fine
11. Are Cars needed at all?
Some trips “need” cars and, for some trips, cars make financial
sense:
• Residents who want/need cars (note the slow growth of car clubs etc.)
• The disabled and those with restricted mobility
• High occupancy vehicles (economic sense for car users but 1 bus equals
3.5 cars in congestion terms)
• Multi-destination trips
• People carrying goods
• Trips made outside transit operating hours
• Trips made outside transit coverage or to places not linked by transit
12. Tourism
Tourists are “strangers” to the city who
• Do not know the way to their destination
• Do not know where to park
• Do not know how long they will be
• Need to be able to easily “dump” the car
So car use can be challenging
Car using tourists are better served by Park and Ride; the tourist
is intercepted at the edge of the city. The city centre is access by
fast bus or trains with fares that are less than city centre parking
costs.
