dc.description.abstract	Various strategies worldwide have been introduced to cut emissions and pollutants in freight distribution, such as a low emission strategy mainly supported by low carbon fuel standards, shifting road freight to rail, and a zero-emission strategy to change from diesel to either battery-electric trucks or hydrogen fuel cell electric trucks. This paper assesses emission, local air pollution and cost implications of a range of initiatives available, comparing and recommending actions that government and truck operators may take in the near term to longer term.	en
