Resumo: Objetivou-se com este estudo, identificar, mediante uma revisão bibliográfica sistemática, os desafios enfrentados pelo transporte urbano de carga e as boas práticas que podem ser adotadas, visando os aspectos socioambientais. Identificaram-se também os agentes de implantação das boas práticas (poder público ou iniciativa privada). Como contribuição, apontam-se a elaboração de um procedimento de revisão bibliográfica sistemática, que foi estabelecido, exclusivamente, para este estudo e a identificação de 26 boas práticas capazes de apoiar a solução de 16 desafios do TUC. O poder público, a iniciativa privada e ambos os agentes podem solucionar 31%, 44% e 25% dos desafios, respectivamente, atuando por meio de 27%, 65% e 8% das práticas. Verificou-se que 81% das boas práticas podem contribuir positivamente, em relação aos aspectos econômicos. A pesquisa limitou-se a uma revisão bibliográfica. Recomenda-se que trabalhos futuros considerem uma pesquisa de campo para verificar se tais desafios e boas práticas identificados fazem parte da realidade das cidades.Palavras-chave: revisão bibliográfica sistemática, transporte urbano de carga.Abstract: This purpose of this paper is to identify, through a systematic literature review, the challenges faced in urban freight transportation and best practices that could be implemented in the field, considering social and environmental aspects. The research also identifies the actors (in public and private sectors) which could be responsible for implementing such practices. Moreover, the paper proposes a procedure for conducting systematic literature reviews, established exclusively for this study. The conclusions identify 26 best practices capable of supporting the solution of 16 challenges. Results indicate that 31% of these challenges could be solved by public actors, 44% by the private sector and 25% of them by both agents, working, respectively, in 27%, 65% and 8% of the practices. Besides, it was identified that 81% of the best practices can contribute positively, considering economic aspects. The research was limited to scientific papers. Therefore, it is recommended that future studies consider a field survey to confirm that the challenges and good practices identified are part of the reality of cities.Keywords: systematic literature review, urban freight transport. INTRODUÇÃONo mundo, o transporte urbano de carga (TUC) tem importante papel no desenvolvimento das cidades e, em países em desenvolvimento, essa tendência é ainda mais evidente pela concentração de grande massa populacional em áreas urbanas, o que promove uma demanda por transporte ainda maior nessas regiões (Allen et al., 2008).Comparado ao transporte urbano de passageiro, o TUC tem um impacto significativo em relação aos aspectos sociais, ambientais e econômicos, sobretudo com relação aos congestionamentos, a poluição atmosférica, a emissão de dióxido de carbono (CO2), além de custos e segurança (Behendes et al., 2008 e Mckinnon, 2010.Nesse contexto, o desafio da sociedade consiste em fomentar a ent...

“…By introducing an EZ it is hoped that air quality improves and this will reduce the health problems and fatalities associated with poor air quality. Given this health hazard, the European Union, and many countries around the world, have set air quality targets to be met, and Low Emission Zones are being implemented (Allen & Wild, 2008;Browne et al, 2012;Dotter, 2015).…”

These actions will improve air quality and cut road traffic, which will thus reduce respiratory diseases and the number of traffic accidents, which will have indirect effects on the city's economy (Southworth, 2003;Lindholm, 2012;Quak, 2015)).…”

European cities are facing enormous challenges in accessibility and livability terms due to several European directives, which are compulsory in the mid/long term, traffic congestion levels are still increasing, and air pollution and noise disturbs citizens' lives. This work presents the study carried out in a Mediterranean city to define an Environmental Zone with traffic restrictions for vehicles in the historical centre of the city of Cartagena (Spain) by exploring different urban logistics measures to tackle main problems caused by freight deliveries and pickups in the city centre. These solutions aimed to enhance the efficiency of vehicles, and to reduce both traffic congestion the environmental impacts caused by freight delivery in the city in order to improve urban sustainability.

“…In recent years, in order to meet the new challenges for improving city sustainability and liveability, several city logistics solutions have been proposed and implemented around the world (Browne et al [8], Russo and Comi [44], Taniguchi and Thompson [47]). In this context, local administrators mainly 76 A. Comi, A. Nuzzolo managed operational actions in order to reduce interferences with other vehicles and inhabitants (e.g.…”

Summary. This paper explores the new research challenges for forecasting urban goods demand by rail. In fact, the growing interest to find urban logistics solutions for improving city sustainability and liveability, mainly due to the reduction of urban road accessibility and environmental constraints, has pushed to explore solutions alternative to the road. Multimodal urban logistics, based on the use of railway, seem an interesting alternative solution, but it remained mainly at conceptual level. Few studies have explored the factors, that push actors to find competitive such a system with respect to the road, and modelling framework for forecasting the relative demand. Therefore, paper reviews the current literature, investigates the factors involved in choosing such a mode, and finally, recalls a recent modelling framework and hence proposes some advancements that allow to point out the rail transport alternative. MODELOWANIE PROGNOZOWANIA TRANSPORTU DÓBR W MIASTACH Z WYKORZYSTANIEM KOLEIStreszczenie. Artykuł analizuje nowe wyzwania badawcze związane z prognozowaniem transportu dóbr w miastach z wykorzystaniem kolei. Rosnące zainteresowanie znalezieniem logistycznych rozwiązań miejskich, które miałyby poprawić zrównoważony rozwój miasta oraz zwiększyć jakość życia mieszkańców, spowodowane jest zmniejszeniem dostępności do dróg miejskich oraz ograniczeniami środowiskowymi. Wspomniane aspekty wymogły rozpoczęcie badań nad innymi rozwiązaniami niż wykorzystanie dróg. Multimodalne rozwiązania logistyki miejskiej, oparte na wykorzystaniu kolei, wydają się być interesującym rozwiązaniem alternatywnym, jednak pozostają głównie tylko na poziomie koncepcji. W badaniach analizowano czynniki, które skłaniały do odnalezienia konkurencyjnego dla drogi systemu i ramy modelowania dla prognozowania rzeczywistego popytu. W artykule zaprezentowano ocenę bieżącej literatury, badanie czynników wpływających na wybór kolei oraz przypomniano niedawne ramy modelowania. W pracy zaproponowano również nowe rozwiązania, które pozwalają na wskazanie transportu kolejowego jako alternatywy do transportu drogowego.
