Freight in the City Expo 2015 took place on Tuesday 27 October at Alexandra Palace, London.
The one-day free-to-attend exhibition showcased the latest vehicles, technology and equipment that enable urban deliveries to be made quietly, cleanly and safely.
A series of seminars ran throughout the day highlighting developments in sustainable urban deliveries:
- The Clean Seminar Theatre focused on air quality, emissions, reducing congestion, alternative fuels; consolidation centres; and shared-user networks
- The Quiet Seminar Theatre focused on retiming deliveries, quiet equipment, real-life case studies of out-of-hours deliveries; getting the buy-in from local authorities; driver training and the PIEK scheme.
- The Safe Seminar Theatre focused on cycle safety initiatives, the Safer Lorry Scheme, Clocs, vulnerable road user training for commercial vehicle drivers, and current initiatives and campaigns.
