Abstract:
Freight pipelines represent a novel approach to urban distribution, with the potential to remove a significant proportion of delivery and servicing traffic from the roads. This study aims to establish the cost-benefit of such a system, including sustainability impacts, though estimation of the likely uses and uptake of a proposed freight pipeline system in a typical English town centre.
Uncontrolled Keywords:
Freight pipeline, urban delivery
