One of the essential factors for a functional and hassle free construction project is well planned and organized logistics. At urban construction sites that are characterized by limited space and constant challenges given by the conditions of the location, it becomes even more relevant to plan meticulously. It is a fact that the construction business has its flaws when it comes to manage the different types of wastes that are within, and constantly working with logistics is the only way to effectively use the resources, both economically and in terms of time. This paper will from this background enlighten the logistical problems that emerge because of the conditions in the city, identify the most critical, and observe how they are taken care of. From our observations we noticed that lack of space and a poor communication between operators in and around the project, often is the common denominator when problems surface and are especially important to manage in inner-city projects. The issues seem to be connected to a very complex logistic network, where it’s hard to coordinate the operators further down in line. This also differs a lot depending on the size of the project, and the smaller sites often have less logistic awareness.
