Learning Objectives...
Logistical infrastructure is the backbone of logistics systems. Apart from the transport infrastructure, the suprastructure including the logistics locations and real estate as well as the telecommunication infrastructure are becoming increasingly important for logistics. It is the aim of this chapter to illustrate the logistical functions of the various infrastructural facilities. To this end, the numerous complexities and interdependencies of the individual infrastructures will be identified and amalgamated into the logistical infrastructure.
