C-LIEGE push and pull measures database
The C-LIEGE project has defined a suitable set of actions/measures for an efficient and energy saving organization of goods transport and delivery in urban areas. A complete database including 45 push and pull freight transport demand-oriented measures has been elaborated making the most of state of the art integration and good practices elicitation of local, regional and European urban freight transport initiatives.
A "push" measure is one that is imposed on operators with a view to influencing delivery or operational practices. A "pull" measure is designed to encourage more sustainable and energy-efficient freight traffic. "push-and-pull" measures involve a combination of the two, aimed at providing incentives for good practice whilst simultaneously using fiscal or technical tools to deter practices we wish to discourage.
