Development of Regional Clusters and Joint Action Plan for Urban Logisticskeywords :City logistics, research driven cluster, co-operation, join action plan, internationalization, infomobility, electric vehicles, environmental impactThe Dorothy Project is targeted to develop the potential of innovation and research in the four Regions (Tuscany (Italy),Valencia (Spain), Lisbon and Tagus ( Portugal) and Oltenia ( Romania) composing the Consortium in the field of Urban Logistics, which represent the specific application topic of the proposal, and is one of the main focus of attention of the Flagship Initiative.This proposal addresses the topic of the call identified as “Development of technologies and services relevant for the implementation of a 'resource efficient Europe'”. The theme of Urban Logistics represents an important aspect of the efficient use of resources in Europe. In fact, being the overall supply chain for the movement of goods one of the political priorities of the European agenda, the problem of the “last mile”, directly related in its majority to urban logistics, is one of the most relevant of the overall supply organization. The economic dimension of the distribution of goods in the urban environment is huge and could reach about 40% of the total cost of transportation ( like in Valencia region). The urban logistics sector cannot be considered particularly advanced from the technological and organisational point of view, so that research and technological innovation can play a significant role in the improvement of the competitiveness of this sector.

Europe

Network of medium sized cities sharing the opportunities and challenges derived from the presence of existing or planned transportation hub of regional relevance. The aim is to support cities in re-defining their territorial, infrastructural and transport systems, planning functions and activities to satisfy the territorial needs and strengthen new linkages with different EU regions as a base of competiveness and innovation transfer. Main issues to be addressed: How city can become competitive in the framework of EU cities and in this context of economic crisis? To exploit the HUB being at the same time an engine for a sustainable urban and territorial development of the surrounding areas at local regional and EU level?
