Rethink last-mile delivery: three dynamic exchanges, countless fresh ideas.
Cities across Europe are grappling with rising congestion, emissions, and the inefficiencies of car-dependent mobility and delivery systems. The SuCoLo project is pioneering a solution: sustainable cargo bike delivery and cargo bike sharing tailored to each city’s unique needs.
We invite urban policy authorities, logistics providers, courier services, e-commerce sites and platforms, as well as researchers and innovators to our European Learning Circle – a virtual series of three interactive workshops that will spotlight outputs and lessons learned from real-world pilot projects in Leipzig, Merano, and Salzburg. Additionally, hear the perspective of how a Swedish municipality is tackling sustainable mobility and logistics.
