Abstract
City logistics is a difficult topic for public decision makers who often lack relevant information and knowledge to make their decisions. Among all available solutions, Urban Consolidation Centre is an appreciated one. Indeed, it is supposed to reduce pollution, trucks’ congestion and to improve the livelihood of city centre. Nevertheless, it is far from obvious that UCC are efficient and viable. The aim of this study is to provide answers to two questions: can an UCC be viable? Does the shape of a city affect the profitability of an UCC? We present a preliminary work based on a comparison between three morphologies to give some clues.
