The Rising Tide of River Freight: CRP Featured in Logistics Manager Magazine

26th March 2025 / Posted by Katie Smith

CRP is proud to share its recent feature in Logistics Manager Magazine, which highlights our dedication to diversifying and re-organising how freight is currently distributed in the UK.  

With 80% of parcels distributed annually reliant on road freight, looking to use the river as a freight resource can support to ease congestion and improve air quality.  

Read the feature in full here.

As part of the Defra-funded Smarter Greener Logistics programme, CRP have been working on Pier Information Sheets designed to highlight the potential of key piers along the River Thames to support river freight.  

We look forward to sharing these over the coming months!
