Resumen

Urban logistics is an integral part of the proper functioning of a city. It generates employment, serves and supports industrial and commercial activities that are daily taking place in modern urban centres, considered to be important levers of development and prosperity for a region. In recent years, interest in sustainable freight distribution procedures has been increasing among Local Authorities. Sustainable mobility, planning and development of relative management systems involves multiple stakeholders who -through collective effort- need to design, organize and implement actions and measures to support them. This paper presents specific policy measures regarding the enhancement of urban logistics procedures in small-medium sized cities, evaluated through a multi-criteria analysis in the framework of the elaboration of a Sustainable Urban Logistics Plan (SULP) for the city of Serres in Greece.
