“…This situation resulted in significantly increasing the movement of goods, which also increased carriers' travel times and traffic congestion, among other externalities [3,4]. UFT is responsible for numerous negative impacts, such as noise, safety, obstructions for pedestrians, damaging and invading urban infrastructure, loss of time and energy, emission of greenhouse gases, and congestion [5,6]. Still, despite the UFT's importance to economic development [7,8], the growing volume of transported goods negatively impacts the urban environment and the quality of life [2,9].…”
