CycleLogistics estimates that what percentage of goods transported in cities could be shifted to bicycles and cargo bikes, which would significantly reduce emissions and congestion?
CycleLogistics, a European initiative, estimates that 51% of urban goods transport could shift to bicycles and cargo bikes. This transition reduces emissions (e.g., from diesel vans) and alleviates traffic congestion, offering a practical green logistics solution. The CIPS L3M6 module references this figure to illustrate how alternative transport modes can lower the environmental impact of last-mile delivery in cities, a key concern in LO2. For example, cargo bikes emit zero tailpipe emissions, making them ideal for dense urban areas, supporting sustainability goals.
