[en] Our study addresses the challenge of reducing both operational costs
and the environmental impact of delivering letters and parcels in urban
areas. We focus on selecting the right vehicle from electric vans, thermic
engine vans, and cargo bikes, while also designing an effective delivery
system. This system incorporates optimally located micro-depots that
allow cargo bikes to reload parcels and take over deliveries for subsequent
trips using a multi-trip delivery approach.
