URBAN GOODS MOVEMENT DEMONSTRATION PROJECT DESIGN STUDY. APPENDIX D. CONGESTION ANALYSIS. APPENDIX E. ENERGY ANALYSIS. APPENDIX F. AIR POLLUTION ANALYSIS. APPENDIX G. NOISE ANALYSIS

The report contains four technical appendices developed as part of Phase I and Phase II of the Urban Goods Movement Demonstration Project Design. In the first task phases of the study, the primary objectives were to define qualitatively and quantitatively the contribution and impact of goods movement in urbanized areas to: traffic congestion, energy consumption, air pollution, noise pollution, inefficient land use, and cost of urban goods movement. From the analysis, problems associated with urban goods movement and their fundamental causes were identified and plausible solution to the problems were generated. Primary attention was focused on solutions which could be demonstrated and implemented in a 5-year timeframe and would require modest capital investment.
