Abstract
The surge in online purchases coupled with rapid home delivery has exerted a detrimental impact on cities. Municipal authorities are now endeavouring to implement measures to mitigate the externalities stemming from this activity. Some cities suggest steering clear of peak hours for last-mile delivery, while others restrict loading and unloading operations on streets to specific time slots. This study evaluates the alteration in transportation costs for logistics companies, as well as shifts in congestion and exhaust emissions resulting from the prohibition of delivery vehicles during designated time frames. The methodology outlined herein is employed for the case study of Barcelona.
