The Urban Freight Lab has developed an Urban Goods Delivery Toolkit, designed as a one-stop-shop for cities and transportation researchers across the U.S. to improve functionality in the Final 50 Feet segment, reducing both load/unload parking space productivity and failed first delivery attempts.
“The toolkit gives any City access to methods we’ve developed in the Urban Freight Lab. While we know many Cities are already benefiting from the reports and publications on our website, the toolkit format makes it a little easier to find these tools and to start using them,” said Anne Goodchild, founding director of the Supply Chain Transportation & Logistics Center.
Part of the Lab’s Final 50 Feet suite of research projects, the Toolkit builds and improves on the prior data-collection methods enabling other cities to replicate the work done in Seattle.
