Context of  ELU  programme
Reminder aims of ELU a more efficient logistic
org. Massification,less v.km.
During the late 1990s, the UDC was considered as
the best solution for decreasing the urban goods
transport vehicles flows
Many experiments were carried out in different
European Cities
Many UDC projects have not been carried out, or
have been postponed after a thorough feasibility
study.
More than 20 UDC projects have been mentioned in
French PDU, since the 1996 Clean Air Act
Two experiments have been successful Monaco UDC
starting in 1989 and La Rochelle UDC in 2001
Recently, less expensive and more appropriated
solutions

2000  ELU  programme
Aims To help for setting up Urban Logistics
spaces appropriated to the operator's needs.
To explain technical means to create a
urban logistic zone
Method 1. Census of actors needs
surveys to logisticians, carriers,
shippers, large volume distribution, and
many others managers 2. Census of technicians
and local authorities needs according
to their space using problems 3.
Dialogue meetings
Results a methodological guide to help public
and private decision- makers in realising
the adapted solutions

 Urban Logistics Zone 
The methodology for the realisation/evaluation of
the project
1. Strategic objectives
2. Diagnosis of existing
3. Principal of actions
5. Follow up and evaluation
Functionnal, economical, environnemental
4. Operationnal setting up

 Urban Logistics Zone 
The brakes for the carrying out

• political
• priority for passengers on the railways lines
• conflict about space using (green)

• economical
• The urban land price ( choice ULZ/housing,
  tertiary activities..)
• The capital spending for rehabilitate
  neglected terminal Railways connection
• The cost for linking the suburbs adjacent to
  Paris railways network
• The cost for new logistics re organisation for
  the firms

management

community/Ministry of Transport
? aims environmental in La Rochelle
?UDC concerns the historical centre in La Rochelle
?Regulation few strict, weak control

La Rochelle 2006 UDC
How to succeed for the long term ?
Financial terms End of the UE programme in
2004, Only Town community subsidies
Technical terms In addition to the 6 little
electric Kangoo, one 3.5 T.electric van permits
the transport of pallets No reduction of
exemptions (regulation), lack of controls
Economic terms New additional services
proposed No extension of the perimeter, no
increase of nb of parcels
New organisation
14
La Rochelle 2006 UDC
How to evaluate the experiment 5 year after the
setting up ?
A lack of previous observation before the
starting, (no market research with economic
forecasting for the operator)
A lack of continuous observation
A lack of comparable data with other experiments
T.km, vehicle.km nb of parcels (La Rochelle), nb
of stops (ELP Bordeaux), nb deliveries (UGM
surveys) costs global cost, subsidies,
external costs ?
Taking into account the global logistics
organisation and the profitability for the UDC

Conclusion The keys for the success ?
1. Consignity respects the procedure advocated
in the ELU programme (5 steps)
2. A large market, a viability assured
3. An evaluation of the current organisation,
4. PPP
5. A running committee
