Challenge / Goal
NOTE: This best practice was sourced by the ENTRANCE consortium from publicly-available information.
With the strong growth of e-commerce, the number of transport movements will continue to increase in our own towns and cities too. However, the current logistics system does not yet have sustainable and efficient solutions ready. Everyone has at times wondered why three delivery vehicles are delivering simultaneously on the same street, for instance. TRI-VIZOR came up with a solution for this challenge for the municipality of Antwerp, Belgium.
Solution
It consolidates all freight transport in a city to optimise transport for logistics, thus increasing efficiency and reducing emissions. CULT is opting for what it calls “Green Deal Delivery”, with deliveries at fixed times, completely emission-free, with green transport such as cargo bikes and electric vans and with couriers who can work in socio-economically responsible working conditions. It aims to actively contribute to the significant mobility and environmental challenges that towns and cities face today.
