The main problem arising in the process of analysing the functioning of the transport and distribution of goods in urban areas is the lack of data on their implementation, in particular with regard to the classification of vehicles, their routes, changes in demand for transport, etc. The paper introduces the methodology and results of analysis of the goods distribution within the city centre of Szczecin in the area covering the significant number of companies, retail and service entities, entities of the HoReCa sector, schools, universities, and public administration. Major objective of the study was to analyse the influence of deliveries on city environment. It should be emphasized that due to the polycentric structure of Szczecin it was difficult to identify its city centre. This example could be good reference for the analysis realized in other cities, especially taking to the account their similarity to Szczecin.
