Key Research Highlights:
Freight trips are modelled as a joint package consisting of outsourcing and insourcing decisions
First-of-a-kind Multivariate modelling framework is used to account for error correlations between freight trips
Substitutive relationship found between insourced and outsourced trips using same truck type
Models reveal the exogenous effects of busines size, age, fleet ownership and industry sector
Study findings highlight the drawbacks in the current approach of modelling overall freight trips

Journal Details: Research in Transportation Business & Management (IF: 4.29) | Research Area: Transportation Economics |Key Research Highlights:
Research identifies large urban freight traffic generators (LTGs) using a decision-tree approach.
Examines the linkage between LTGs and freight travel characteristics.
Models predict an establishment to be defined as either LTG or Non-LTG.
Significant implications towards sustainable city logistics initiatives such as off-hour deliveries.
