Micro Logistics Hub Updates
29th January 2024 / Posted by Guillaume StrebelleCRP have exciting insights to share regarding our two micro logistics hub trials in Pimlico and Wandsworth:
- Since the Pimlico micro logistics hub trial began nine months ago – the trial recently ended on 31st December 2023 – 4,186 kg of CO2 emissions have been saved. Let’s translate this into a more tangible example, thanks to the CRP Clean Air Tool. This is equivalent to the CO2 emissions from 85 football pitch-sized forest fires. If you’re not convinced yet, here’s another notable achievement: 15,141 g of NOx emissions have been reduced so far. This is equivalent to the NOx emissions of what 459 people emit in one day!
- The micro logistics hub in Wandsworth is four months old and is demonstrating impressive results. Last month, 6,000 flower deliveries were sorted at the hub, and 257 miles were travelled by cargo bikes! We will be sharing insights for January soon.
CRP is currently working with Islington Council and Decarbon Logistics Solutions to identify suitable locations for a future micro logistics hub trial. Consequently, another micro logistics hub trial should be implemented in the coming months, so stay tuned to CRP’s regular updates on our website, social media channels, or newsletter.
