Smart city Infrastructure for Sustainable Urban Logistics

The necessity for smart city infrastructure to enable sustainable urban logistics has been brought to light by the global trend of urbanization and the rising demand for cost-effective and environmentally friendly logistics solutions. The main elements, enabling technologies, and implementation difficulties related to creating smart city infrastructure for urban logistics are allthoroughly reviewed in this study. Cities are finding it more difficult to manage the logistics of providing products and services to citizens and companies in a sustainable and effective way as urban populations continue to rise. Conventional urban logistics models are frequently in effective because they depend on disjointed systems and exacerbate problems like air pollution, traffic jams, and greenhouse gas emissions. On the other hand, new chances to improve urbanlogistics and make it more sustainable are presented by the rise of smart city technologies. This study looks at how more sustainable urban logistics can be made possible by smart city infrastructure. Intelligent transportation systems, automated delivery systems, real-time data analytics, and integrated multimodal networks are important parts. Cities may increase vehicle usage, streamline delivery routes, and transition to green reforms of transportation like electric cars by utilizing these technologies. Overall, this research shows how smart city infrastructuremay play a key role in facilitating sustainable urban logistics, enabling cities to minimize the negative effects of goods movement while simultaneously meeting the changing needs of businesses and citizens. Creating integrated, data-driven logistics systems will be crucial to creating more livable, sustainable urban environments as cities continue to grow.
