A city’s transport and distribution system requires the effective organization of urban freight deliveries that take into consideration the economic, ecological, and social impact. Implementation of the concept of green logistics necessitates the use of environmentally friendly and energy-efficient modes of transport, which consider the existing infrastructure and the possibility of its development. The aim of this work was to facilitate the transfer to rail transport, using the existing tramway infrastructure, those shipments which previously entered the city center by road. The paper proposes a simulation model for small consignments delivered by freight trams in the city of Poznań, Poland. Operational planning is carried out in conditions of uncertainty and risk. The uncertainty is due to the stochastic nature of the demand for products. The risk is characterized by the probability that, due to technological and technical limitations, a given customer will not be fully served from the distribution center. The authors provide a decision support tool for evaluating the possible locations of tram depots and for route planning. The assignment of the routes, with the criterion of minimizing the costs for the carrier, and with a limitation on tram operating time, is based on the use of genetic algorithms, which makes it possible to obtain a solution that is close to optimal, within a reasonable time period. As a result of a series of simulation experiments and statistical data processing, the distribution laws and expected average values of the technological parameters were determined for the functioning of the city transport and distribution system under conditions of uncertainty and risk.

“…In cities, the key issue is to ensure freight deliveries both to shops, service points and, thanks to the development of e-commerce, to individuals. This requires setting up distribution centers and warehouses, and then delivering shipments, many of which are transported in small batches to end users [15,16].…”

“…The results of smart logistics technologies [15] can be used in the organization of multimodal cargo delivery and supply chain risk management but these technologies are not used in practice of small retail chains within the country. In [16,17], methods for estimating the cost of servicing consumers when transporting small perishable goods in urban areas are proposed. Also, the parameters of the choice of rational brand and carrying capacity of the truck depending on the number of delivery points in conditions of constant change of requirements are considered in work [18].…”

The object of research is the system of organization of transportation of perishable goods. The study subject is the technological process of transportation of perishable goods by small shipments. The problem solved was a multicriteria optimization of the technological process of delivery of perishable goods by small shipments. The results are the built simulation model for the distribution of small consignments of perishable goods and the optimization according to the criterion of minimizing delivery time while limiting the rational use of available vehicles. To construct a simulation model, discrete-event and agent-based principles were used. The model built combines the solution to the transport problem and the traveling salesman problem simultaneously with taking into account the stochastic duration of technological operations. When forming the distribution route, the model algorithm takes into account the minimum allowable batch size to the i-th destination, which allows each time to build a new unique route of the vehicle. Unlike existing ones, the model constructed allows taking into account the peculiarities of the distribution network, the minimum consignment of cargo, and dynamically changing the route in accordance with the available cargo. Each time the cargo mass arrives at the logistics terminal, the condition of a sufficient quantity of goods intended for delivery to points of sale is checked. If the quantity of cargo sufficient for shipment is equal to the capacity of the car body, a new information message is generated on the availability of goods ready for shipment. Scope and conditions of practical use of the obtained results include transport companies, retail chains, distribution logistics
