Final 50 Feet of the Urban Goods Delivery System: Pilot Test of an Innovative Improvement Strategy
项目名称: Final 50 Feet of the Urban Goods Delivery System: Pilot Test of an Innovative Improvement Strategy
摘要: The purpose of the research project is to pilot test a promising strategy to reduce the number of failed first delivery attempts in urban buildings. The test will take place in the Seattle Municipal Tower. It will serve as a case study for transportation and urban planning professionals seeking to reduce truck trips to urban buildings. SCTL Identified two promising strategies for the pilot test: (1) Locker system: smaller to medium sized deliveries can be placed into a locker which will be temporarily installed during the pilot test; and (2) Grouped-tenant-floor-drop-off-points for medium sized items if locker is too small or full (4-6 floor groups to be set up by SDOT and City Light). People will come and pick up the goods at the designated drop off points. Flyers with information of drop-off-points will be given to the carriers. SCTL will evaluate the ability of the standardized second step pilot test to reduce the number of failed first delivery attempts by: (1) Collecting original data to document the number of failed first delivery attempts before and after the pilot test; and (2) Comparing them to the pilot test goals.
