This study investigates the progress of six pilot projects launched in 2016 and, based on a review of prior research, derives the key factors necessary to stimulate construction activities. Core influencing factors were identified through Focus Group Interviews (FGI) with experts in the planning and construction of urban logistics infrastructure. Subsequently, a survey was administered to thirty experts—comprising ten project developers, ten public officials, and ten engineering professionals—and an empirical analysis was conducted using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP).
The findings of the AHP analysis indicate that business feasibility factors (0.583) are regarded by experts as more critical than licensing and approval factors (0.417) for the promotion of urban high-tech logistics complexes. Moreover, all expert groups consistently perceived logistics facilities as a primary determinant in facilitating the activation of such complexes. The present study contributes by identifying existing challenges in the development of urban high-tech logistics complexes and by providing foundational data to support the smooth implementation of projects through an assessment of factor prioritization across stakeholder groups.
