Assesment of the potential of cargo bikes and electrification for last-mile parcel delivery by means of simulation of urban freight flows
Abstract Background The paper presents a simulation model for freight. In the paper, this model is applied to understand the impacts of electric vans and cargo bikes for the last-mile delivery of parcels. Cargo bikes are electrically assisted vehicles that distribute parcels from micro depots locate...
