Popis: | European cities endeavor to meet the challenges of the European Union transport policy related to urban logistics through working out and implementing different concepts of more city friendly freight distribution. It is especially significant as far as enormous cultural heritage of some European cities is concerned. The protection of unique and invaluable historical city centers against the negative impacts of car traffic is necessary. The implementation of those activities is supported by various European funds. The CIVITAS Initiative is one of them. In the framework of this initiative, several European cities have implemented projects related to the urban logistics. The first part of the article presented Krakow experiences in the process of preparation and implementation of the support conception to urban logistics in the historical center of the city. In the second part of the article a description of few European experiences relating to the implementation of projects contributing to the protection of historical areas and positive impact on their inhabitants is presented. |
