Curbside Pickup and Delivery Operations and Arterial Traffic Impacts

摘要

The report presents an analysis of curbside pickups and deliveries (PUD) of freight in urban areas. Portions of six cities--San Francisco, Boston, St. Paul, Oklahoma City, Dallas, Phoenix--were studied as part of this effort. Data was collected on the characteristics of the PUD trip, the parking of the vehicle, the type and size of the generator and the impact that double parking has on arterial traffic performance.
