The City as a Terminal: The Urban Context of Logistics and Freight Transport
ISBN: 9780754609131 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The on-time delivery of goods is regarded as a primary factor of the urban economy and is being monitored by businesses and government alike. However, much analysis of freight transportation and the flow of goods into, out of and within urban areas focuses on functional, business-related approaches. This book examines the interrelationship between logistics development on one hand and urban development and geographical issues, such as land use and location, on the other. Avoiding certain one-dimensional views on 'logistics impacts on the city', it discloses the complex interaction of the...

Cities, Regions and Flows
ISBN: 9781138109902 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Urban regions have come under increasing pressure to adapt to the imperatives of mobility, including greater freedom of travel, rising trade volumes and global economic networks. Whereas urbanization was once characterized by the concentration of services and facilities, urban areas now have to ensure the exchange of goods, services and information in a much more complex, interrelated, highly competitive, and spatially dispersed environment. As a consequence, cities are challenged to ensure the functionality of infrastructure while mitigating negative environmental and social impacts. ...

Mobility Patterns and Urban Structure
ISBN: 9781472412973 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Despite extensive efforts to understand the overall effect of urban structure on the current patterns of urban mobility, we are still far from a consensual perspective on this complex matter. To help build agreement on the factors influencing travel behaviour, this book discusses the influence of alternative urban structures on sustainable mobility. Bringing together two existing and complementary methods to study the relationship between urban structure and mobility, the authors compare two case studies with distinct urban structures and travel behaviour (Copenhagen and Oporto). Of...

Intermodal Freight Terminals: A Life Cycle Governance Framework
ISBN: 9781472463487 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Much work has been done on port governance yet little has addressed intermodal terminal governance, despite the clear similarities. This book fills that gap by establishing a governance framework for situating analysis of intermodal terminals throughout their life cycle. A version of the product life cycle theory is amended with governance theory to produce a framework covering each stage of the terminala s life cycle, from the initial planning to the many decisions taken regarding the public/private split in funding mechanisms, ownership, selecting an operator, specifying KPIs to the...
