Telematics Tools as the Support for Unloading Bays Utilization

Journal Title: Archives of Transport System Telematics - Year 2018, Vol 11, Issue 4

Abstract

Unloading bays are one of the most popular and simple to implement measures in city logistics systems. Th e main strength of this measure is that it eff ectively reduces congestion eff ect due to that loading or unloading operations are realize in special area and not infl uence directly on traffi c fl ow. However, the most important problem in utilization of unloading bays is their inappropriate use (as a normal parking space, not only for delivery vehicles during the delivering process) and the confl icts between users in the case of few deliveries at the same time and with utilization of the same unloading bay. Th e way to solve these problems is implementation of the telematics tools. Th e paper is focused on examples of utilization of mobile devices and sensors as the support for the unloading bays booking and use.
