Lecture description

New scope for urban supply: less congestion, more efficiency, less noise

While daytime traffic comes to a standstill, low-noise night-time logistics deliver to their customers – when the city is still asleep. This is made possible by the use of alternative drive systems and quiet equipment for loading and unloading processes. In this session, you will learn how retail and logistics companies are working with researchers and policymakers to develop new ways of supplying goods in a way that is compatible with urban life and economically viable during off-peak and night-time hours.

Look forward to practical insights from Fraunhofer IML, the German Trade Association, Transgourmet and DB Schenker:

Why quiet logistics is key to liveable cities

How alternative drive systems and technical solutions facilitate permits for night-time deliveries

What advantages are gained by tapping into off-peak times – for companies, cities and residents
