ITS can contribute to urban freight efficiency in three key ways: 1) A pilot project measured and quantified the energy savings from eco-driving support, adaptive speed controls, and dynamic delivery bay management among other measures. 2) Successful pan-European deployment requires cooperation between stakeholders using an open reference platform for cooperative applications and services. 3) Future development aims to develop cooperative systems using vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication to help drivers, fleet managers, and road operators manage traffic and operations more efficiently through tools like eco-driving assistance, freight logistics planning, and adaptive traffic control systems.
