Abstract:

Research background and purpose: Contemporary cities are facing increasing economic, social, and environmental challenges caused by rapid urbanization and the concentration of populations in urban areas. These dynamics intensify freight transport, leading to traffic congestion, air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, and traffic accidents. Therefore, cities must seek sustainable solutions to improve freight flows and reduce negative externalities. ; The aim of this study is to establish the basis for a Sustainable Urban Logistics Plan (SULP) for Częstochowa. The primary objective is to define the purpose and scope of sustainable urban logistics while addressing key economic, social, and environmental goals. The study aligns with legal frameworks and aims to support the development of energy-efficient and environmentally friendly logistics systems. ; Design/methodology/approach: The research methodology includes a strategic review of regulations, scenario development, and identification of urban mobility priorities. The study involves analyzing the current state of logistics in Częstochowa, evaluating the integration of various transport modes, and proposing intelligent and sustainable logistics solutions. The concept also includes a promotion plan to raise awareness and encourage stakeholder engagement, as well as a proposed business model and implementation strategy. ; Findings: Key findings indicate that sustainable urban logistics requires a comprehensive, systemic approach based on data analysis, intermodal integration, policy alignment, and collaboration among stakeholders. The research underlines the importance of long-term vision and coordinated actions in developing effective logistics solutions. ; Value added and limitations: The added value of this study lies in its structured approach to creating a tailored SULP for Częstochowa. While the current work is conceptual, it forms a solid foundation for further detailed research and empirical studies necessary for the full implementation of a sustainable logistics strategy in the city.
