Green construction logistics – a multi-actor challenge

Construction transport have a severe environmental impact. To address the problems requires that complexity of construction, including many different actors and their goals, is captured. The purpose this article to propose new conceptual model for construction logistics systems, with aim advancing transition more environmentally friendly transport. was developed based on theoretical frameworks, also improved practitioner's workshops. five interconnected layers activities: urban land use; construction; supply chain; transport; infrastructure three subsystems. indicates what in subsystems act how can influence performance systems by decisions. In relation similar multi-layer models, need embrace municipal actors. For example, traffic planning may offer available improve fill rates energy efficiency, but rate direct result suppliers decisions, which indirectly affected main contractor's schedule. particular, modal split influenced range decisions actors, complicating selection mode. • A introduced, related system. links key parameters decrease impact provide policy implication systems.
