Transport service - City logistics - Guideline for the definition of limited access to city centers

This document describes possible restrictions for access to cities with city centres and shopping areas and other closed areas and provides guidelines for elements thereof with the aim as an interface between freight transport companies and local authorities to make transport planning and operations more efficient, to prevent bottlenecks in the area, and to protect the city environment.
This document is a code of good practice and can be applied when efficient transport and protection of the environment presupposes restrictions.

Transportdienstleistungen - City-Logistik - Leitfaden zur Bestimmung des begrenzten Zugangs zu Innenstädten

Diese Europäische Norm beschreibt mögliche Zugangsbeschränkungen für Großstädte mit Stadtzentren und Einkaufszonen sowie weiteren geschlossenen Bereichen und liefert Hinweise zur Orientierung über deren Bestandteile als Schnittstelle zwischen Frachttransportunternehmen und örtlichen Behörden, um Verkehrsplanung und Beförderungsprozesse zum Vermeiden von Engpässen in dem jeweiligen Gebiet und für den Schutz der Umwelt der Großstadt wirksamer zu gestalten.
Diese Europäische Norm ist eine Regel für gute Praxis und kann angewendet werden, sobald ein effizientes Transportwesen und ein wirksamer Umweltschutz derartige Beschränkungen voraussetzen.

Introduction
At the CEN Workshop on Intermodal and Interoperable Transport Standardisation on Freight Transport 1999-
12-13/14 it was emphasised that the different kinds of limitations in different cities and countries were
hampering transport planning resulting in problems for road transport companies when organising efficient
freight transport in Europe.
Local authorities make local proposals and the information is available locally and regionally.
The workshop recommended that BT organise a European meeting on the subject: City Logistics. The task
was delegated to TC 320 in the spring 2000 and a Task Group 3 was set up.
The CEN Workshop on Intermodal and Interoperable Transport in Europe: Part 2: Passenger Transport -
2001-11-28/29 made Recommendation 1 (2001-11-29): Recognising a number of problems within sustainable
transport and congestions in cities; to facilitate access to cities; and in order to optimise investment in the
transport system, the workshop recommended to start standardisation on basic requirements for the
characteristics of the vehicle and their use to align road charging systems with the on going road-pricing
activities in CEN/TC 278.
The background for this recommendation is that inhabitants and authorities in many countries are concerned
by pollution from heavy traffic in town centers and especially in larger cities. Another reason is that the
vehicles are taking over more space in the streets. Several authorities have already implemented restrictions
for the access to city centers or are planning to do so.
Such restrictions have four types of stakeholders:
 Industry/Trade;
 Transport companies;
 Private individuals;
 Authorities.
As several companies – local or foreign - interact in such systems of restriction, it is important that all
stakeholders are able to understand and interact within the local systems. The success of an open European
market of transport is dependent on the limitation of restrictions to a certain framework with the same
terminology and perform
