Optimization of a two-echelon city distribution network with cargo bikes

Beschreibung

In our project we focus on sustainable inner-city goods delivery. We study a distribution problem on two levels, where goods are delivered from the company depot in the outskirts of a city to customers and to satellites. From satellites goods are transshipped to cargo bikes which deliver to customers located in the city center. Hence, we have two types of customers, those receiving a delivery on the first level and those receiving a delivery by cargo bikes on the second level, where synchronization between vans and cargo bikes is needed.
