Modern logistics about transportation and deployment of vehicles continues to be a significant theme today. As an inevitable trend of urban transportation system, APTS (Advanced Public Transportation Systems) a new and an effective way to solve modern logistics problem. The characteristics of APTS with scale, time and distance benefits are able to meet the demand of modern logistics management. In this paper, the application of APTS to logistics management is analyzed from four aspects, real-time traffic information supply, vehicle monitor, driving safety, and supply chain combination. Then, the concept of a new system framework to combine APTS and logistics is proposed. At last several policies that target the synergetic development of public transportation and logistics are put forward, which involves the junction of the transportation facilities and logistics nodes the establishment of public information platform, and formation of rational benefit distribution.
