â€oeUrban Logistics Spaces†(ELU) presented here can answer that question. These are facilities intended to reconfigure flows across towns by introducing break of load points. The purpose of this guide is to support institutions and professionals seeking to implement such a facility by providingthem with an analysis method, an estimate of the resources to be committed, a method for action and benchmarks.
The research and experimental action that has enabled this guide is part of a persistent national effort, particularly within the framework of the national â€oeGoods in town†programme, to improve knowledge and know-how in a field which has been neglected for too long.
