Influence of Intelligent Transportation Systems on Reduction of the Environmental Negative Impact of Urban Freight Transport Based on Szczecin Example

The need for telematics solutions to support goods transport and distribution in cities is mainly due to the complexity of the processes taking place in urban transport systems and the importance of the optimisation of transport operations via ensuring adequate availability of linear and point infrastructure, while reducing the adverse impacts of the transport system on the environment. This paper is focused on an example solution implemented in Szczecin. The basis of this solution is the utilization of mobile devices to support traffic management system. An analysis of the influence of system on the reducing the negative impacts of urban freight transport on the city environment is presented.
