CITY LOGISTICS: INFLUENCE OF OVERSIZED ROAD TRANSPORT ON URBAN DEVELOPMENT
Journal Title: Scientific Journals of Silesian University of Technology. Series Transport - Year 2017, Vol 97, Issue 97
Abstract
This paper describes the influence of road transport on urbanization and the transport of oversized loads. There is an increasing interest in oversized transport and urban development. In this developmental context, it is necessary to transport heavy construction machinery, infrastructure elements, pipes for gas pipelines and waterworks, or even rails to create roads for rail transport. For this purpose, the transport of loads exceeding standard parameters (16.50 m in length, 2.55 m in width, 4.00 m in height and 40 Mg in mass) is used. Oversized traffic has many obstacles on the roads, such as low bridges and viaducts, narrow roads, poor technical condition of roads, road works and low-permeability roundabouts.
