Urban space is under pressure to accommodate needs from business and residents to meet increased demand for freight transport. Fast growing urban logistics, fueled by booming of e-commerce has challenged the conventional approach of managing urban space.

To enable a more dynamic and integrated approach to plan and manage urban space, new tools, models and collection have been developed and tested to help cities reallocate street space to meet current and future challenges. This needs to be embedded and understood within a wider context – reaching out to align with cities’ vision and taking into account changes in lifestyle changes and consumers’ behaviors.
