Why Freight in the City?
What’s DRIVING the increases?As we have moved out of recession a variety of economic trends have come together to increase the level of commercial traffic in our city centres.Large scale commercial and residential infrastructure projects have increased traffic while expanding leisure and retail complexes require more frequent deliveries.
Finding the SOLUTION to the problemIn response, local authorities, businesses and local residents are focusing on keeping the environment cleaner, safer and quieter. Road transport companies and their suppliers of products and services have a key role to play in finding solutions.
Focusing on the issuesRoad Transport Media’s Freight in the City initiative draws together all the key audiences to debate the issues and identify the solutions.
Freight in the City –The right initiative from RTM
Road Transport Media (RTM) has been covering and championing the issues editorially as debate and new issues have grown around the topic of urban logistics.We have organised two successful events:
Quiet Cities
