Parcel Locker Network Design in Barcelona
摘要
The rising externalities associated with e-commerce distribution, driven by emerging trends such as rapid delivery, prompt to explore solutions aimed at mitigating this impact. One potential strategy involves consumers retrieving their parcels from collection points or lockers. This paper analyses a first approach for a locker network in Barcelona, considering consumer preferences for using such infrastructure. The number of lockers in the designed network depends on the capacity of each locker and its distance from the demand.
