Sumario:Urban freight deliveries should be analyzed by focusing on the three sustainability axes: economic, social and environmental. Within the scope of sustainable urban development, it is important to develop an urban freight system that is sustainable and efficient, which is extremely complex due to the enormous variety of freight deliveries co-existing in a city and to the multiple stakeholder groups involved in the problem, which often results in the appearance of conflict areas. This paper describes all that complexity and provides details on the main responses that may be given at the urban framework, both from the industry and from the local authority, always taking into account that the regulations imposed to achieve sustainability in urban freight deliveries might not result as expected.
