Abstract

Construction is required to create more attractive, sustainable and economically viable urban areas. However, transportation of construction related goods and personnel potentially cause negative impacts. A lack of early and accurate information on how the construction site and goods will be organized can lead to disputes and disruptions that harm the construction work and the surrounding community. This paper presents a method for the evaluation of alternative construction logistics measures in a multi-actor participatory setting. The method (MAMCA-software) has been demonstrated in a role-playing setting with 20 students at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences.
