BESTUFS II CA is a follow-up initiative of the thematic network BESTUFS and aims to maintain and expand an open European network between urban freight transport experts, user groups/associations, ongoing projects, the relevant European Commission Directorates and representatives of national, regional and local transport administrations and transport operators in order to identify, describe and disseminate best practices, success criteria and bottlenecks with respect to City Logistics. Overall, BESTUFS II will further identify the problems and the requirements of the cities as well as of all private actors involved in urban freight and will maintain the environment for establishing policy as well as research recommendations. The most relevant and helpful findings promoted in BESTUFS II in form of guides for actors in medium sized cities together with national seminars organised in 22 countries will undoubtedly be suitable for many actors and many cities within Europe.
Furthermore, BESTUFS II will describe the urban context and the role urban freight transport plays in a city. A group of experts will quantify freight transport related processes and measures compared to other transport modes as well as compared to different sustainability objectives. Finally, common data models and applied practical modelling tools are addressed in more detail by European Experts that will consider this topic at roundtables and prepare suggestions for a European harmonisation and roadmap.
BESTUFS II has a geographic coverage of 22 countries: Ireland, Spain, Italy, Sweden, Finland, Slovenia, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Romania, Denmark, Poland, Belgium, Ireland, Austria, Estonia, France, Great Britain, Czech Republic, Hungary, Switzerland, Netherlands and Germany. It will contribute to the improvement of the quality of life in urban areas by analysing and developing environmental-friendly and town planning compatible strategies that reduce the goods transport intensity of economic growth.
