In today's urban landscapes, most megacities deal with challenges related to monitoring access management and designating spaces in city centres for loading or unloading goods. A pivotal objective for logistic companies is to ensure on-time and in-full delivery (OTIF), which directly correlates with enhanced customer satisfaction and increased profitability (Smith, H, 2019). 

This thesis endeavors to enhance urban livability by diminishing parking search durations, bettering traffic conditions and safety, lowering emissions from parking searches, and optimally utilizing available road space. The document prominently features chapters on the state-of-the-art and best practices, particularly spotlighting emerging technologies set to revolutionize monitoring and access management of road vehicles in freight transport, especially within megacity cores. 

A combination of quantitative and qualitative research methodologies is employed, aiming to obtain comprehensive insights for each research question. This approach ensures the derivation of the most efficacious solutions to the problems outlined. The thesis initially delves into these innovative technologies, then transitions to examining global projects that leverage such advancements. The ultimate point of these combined research outcomes sheds light on the pressing issues faced in two case studies: Stockholm and Curitiba, revealing optimal strategies for each research challenge.
