Effects of Land Use Policies on Local Conditions for Truck Deliveries
This chapter discusses the tools that a municipality can use to achieve the desired land use and built environment. The discussion narrowly focuses on the tools and their effects that are relevant to urban freight since some of those tools, such as nontraditional zoning and tax‐increment finance (TIF) districts, have been studied extensively by planning scholars for their broad and complex effects and implications. It is followed by a section on the research framework that elucidates the research hypothesis, and the data and analysis methods employed for this study. The chapter presents the interpretations and discussions of the results of the analysis. While zoning serves multiple purposes such as separating incompatible land uses, preserving consistent aesthetics and promoting public safety, it affects freight transportation mainly in two ways: regulating the use and intensity of land and defining the standards for built environment including parking and loading area requirements, and the provision of curb‐side loading zones.
