Urban transport cargo is paramount within the urbanization process, which requires a way to transport their goods and merchandise. However, this displacement in a general sense, contributes significantly to problems of congestion, pollution, noise, among others. This paper aims to assess the impact of using a vehicle on Urban Freight traffic operation in an urban area, making use of a microsimulation tool traffic through the development and comparison of proposed scenarios, based on the central area the city of Fortaleza. The initial model used calibrated parameters of a study on road environment and three alternative scenarios were created that allowed the analysis of the impacts of VUC in the study area. The simulation results indicate that the adoption of a VUC not show performance gains in traffic, however, shows improvement when combined with prohibition of parking on public roads.
