Thematic focus: freight logistics in small and medium sized cities. Approaches, solutions and success factors

2. EXPLORATION OF THE
CITY-LOGISTIC
POSSIBILITIES
IN URBANISATION AREA
OF KAPOSVÁR

3. OUR CITY’S CITY-LOGISTICAL BASIC PROBLEMS:
15-20 year old worn-out truck fleet
Uncoordinated truck- and good distribution
traffic
Only the multinational companies have
relatively independent transport-distribution
strategy, but these are not harmonized
with each other
As many products, groups of products,
manufacturers, as many freight trips
necessary
EVERYBODY CAN CARRY
ANYTHING FOR EVERYBODY!?

4. Founding of the conception
Derivation of the city-logistic targets

The latest trends of good transport-

urbanisation area

5. Urbanization Area of Kaposvár

6. Detailes:
the changes of the structure have to be
analyzed
In factory size, workplace, place of living
and in commerce
In consumption of the manufacturers and
the population
In technologies

7. The best alternative has to be chosen:
A.) Transport alliance? (based on the cooperative
collaboration of the stakeholders)
B.) Cooperative planning of the city freight transport? (based
on modern surveying methods)
C.) Establishing of city-logistic centre? (brown-field
investments)
D.) Virtual logistic centre? (as public utility)

10. THE EXPECTABLE POZITIVE IMPACTS ARE
DEMONSTRABLE(+)
to the inhabitants of the city
to the operators
to the users
In sum, the improvement of the logistic services and the
supply increases the economic potential of the region
and attracts more investors!

11. The role of the „owner of the city” in the improvement of
the city logistic system:
In a wider sense logistic is a cost-effective art hove to
move persons, goods, vehicles and information!
Whose the city to whom belomgs
the problem of economicalness too!
The drafted concepts of developments affect in more
relation the impact areas of the city logistics:
city traffic, area planning/area utilisation, environment,
economicalness.

12. NOWDAYS THE CITY-LOGISTICS
MEANS URBAN LOGISTICS,
WHICH EXTENDS TO:
the support of the optimal operation of the surroundings,
the tasks coming from the commerce,
moreover investigates the connections and impacts between persons,
information and organisations,
taking into account the predictions and trends, gives a possibility to
answer the future challenges of the city development.

20. CONCLUSION
To rebuild the economic competitiveness of
the region is possible only through the product
quality connected to a higher skill of service
quality
In this surplus of the service quality —
containing the modern warehousing,
packaging, using of parcel-making devices, the
modern transport methods and information-
flows, the tracing of the way of the goods, the
warehousing close to the market, home-
delivery etc. — the economic potential of the
area / region is reflecting.

21. SUMMARY
SUMMARY
FOLLOWING THE „GATEWAY” CONCEPT THE
„TELEHOUSES” AS SMALL-REGIONAL LOGISTIC
CENTRES CAN MANAGE THE COLLECTION- AND
DISTRIBUTION OF GOODS WITHIN THE SUPPLING
ZONE OF THE CLK.
SO THE INTRODUCED CITY/URBAN LOGISTIC
SOLUTIONS POSSIBLY CAN SERVE
THE ECONOMIC RISE OF THE
SMALL REGIONS AND SACK-SETTLEMENTS TOO!
