Abstract
The article is devoted to the influence of the creation of an urban consolidation centre on the accumulation of trucks in different scenarios of organizing the input and output of external freight traffic.
The article is based on the fact that each customer (recipient and sender) acts as a generator, which makes a certain contribution to the total amount of freight traffic. The work evaluates the change in the specific contribution of each customer and the total number of deliveries when the centre is located in the area under consideration, when the external freight traffic is served by road or rail. Calculations showed that in the first case, the technology will not cause improvements in the area due to the concentration of logistics activities, and in the second case, the consolidation centre can be efficient.
The article formulates the key principle: if the effect of consolidation of goods during the last-mile delivery of the exceeds the effect of freight vehicles concentration near the city consolidation centre, then the project is effective in an area where customers do not coordinate deliveries in any other way.
