2 Virtual Loading Bays are now live in the London Borough of Camden
6th September 2024 / Posted by Katherine FairfaxCross River Partnership (CRP) is excited to announce that 2 Virtual Loading Bays are now live in the London Borough of Camden. The 2 Virtual Loading Bays are located on Morwell Street and Kentish Town Road and will be available to book, free of charge, until the end of 2024.
Virtual Loading Bays are dedicated spaces at the kerbside that can be pre-booked by participating operators to load and unload goods using the Grid Kerb booking platform. VLBs aim to make deliveries more efficient, sustainable and improve congestion and air quality in the local area.
The Virtual Loading Bays form part of CRP’s Defra-funded Kerbside Management Trial and are being delivered in partnership between London Borough of Camden, Grid Smarter Cities and Cross River Partnership.
The trial uses Grid’s Virtual Loading Bay technology to dynamically manage the kerbside and aims to improve congestion and air quality in the local area.

The Kerbside Management Trial is part of Smarter Greener Logistics (SGL) a Defra-funded project led by Westminster City Council in collaboration with 25 project partners. The project aims to minimise the impact of freight on noise, air quality, traffic and pavement space in London by making improvements across 14 London boroughs and two London Business Improvement Districts (BIDs).
