City-Logistik – Entwicklung eines Konzepts für die Stadt Querfurt

Abstract

This paper deals with the development of an overall city logistics concept for the city of Querfurt in southern Saxony-Anhalt. The following research question is answered: “How can the implementation of a city logistics concept in the city of Querfurt make a positive contribution to reducing the CO2 emissions of the entire transport sector?” In order to answer the research question, examples of international and German city logistics concepts were first analyzed and evaluated qualitatively with the help of a literature research. Subsequently, various measures were selected from these concepts and transferred to the city of Querfurt. The main part of the work was the identification of optimal locations for micro depots throughout the city. The implementation of city logistics concepts thus makes a positive contribution to reducing the CO2 emissions of the entire transport sector. Based on the results of this research, an investment in a city logistics concept is also recommended in small and medium-sized cities.
