The results indicate the following: (1) Restrictions on truck movements on certain streets results in increased carrier costs for urban operations. (2) Restrictions on truck movements during certain hours results in slightly lower carrier costs. (3) Restricting the use of line haul vehicles in the central business district results in major increases in carrier costs due to additional terminal handling of freight. (4) Restrictions on terminal locations result in significantly increased carrier costs due to increased running times, when the distances are increased between terminal location on one hand, and on the other, delivery zone and access highway. (5) Restrictions requiring consolidated terminal operations result in measurable savings to the carriers due to more efficient utilization of terminal physical plant, equipment, and manpower. (6) Consolidated pickup and delivery operations result in significantly increased costs for TL shipments and decreased costs for LTL shipments. (7) Restrictions on loading and unloading at the delivery and pickup stops result in increased carrier costs due to increased freight handling time. (Author)
