Abstract

Urban freight transportation is considered one of the activities that has the greatest impact on urban areas in terms of sustainability and livability, therefore, new trends are emerging to reduce its impacts. However, there is a lack of methodologies to evaluate and validate the implementation of these trends. In this context, the proposed methodology presents the implementation of three KPIs attending the triple bottom line approach, which look at impacts from the social, environmental, and economic perspectives. This methodology is tested on a case study and the results conclude that the implementation of new trends in UFT can reduce its impact in urban areas.
