Resumen

This paper discusses the assessment of the potential impacts of a number of city logistics measures proposed for the Metropolitan Area of the Mexico City Valley: off-hour delivery programs; policies and agreements to increase cargo consolidation and decrease empty trips; and the implementation of preferential truck routes. The analyses consider the impacts on travel distances, travel times, accidents, emissions and health impacts. In doing so, the authors discuss the proposed measures, the assumptions used to estimate the impacts, and the information required. Different scenarios are evaluated for the various measures.
