Energy Saving Trust info on cargobikes for businesses These days, almost anything can be delivered to your doorstep. With more delivery vehicles on the road, traffic congestion increases and can negatively impact air quality. Bicycles and eCargo bikes, are a great alternative to using petrol and diesel transportation, and are becoming a popular choice for businesses across the UK. eCargo bikes have a lower upfront cost compared to cars and vans and have lower running costs as charging them with electricity is cheaper than petrol and diesel. eCargo bikes also take up less road-space than conventional vehicles, and can take shorter, faster routes by using cycle and bus lanes, being wheeled through pedestrianised areas, or moving through standstill traffic. More Energy Saving Trust info... Why choose an ecargo bike? eCargo bikes are an efficient method for transporting cargo and making last mile deliveries. There are numerous advantages to making the switch, including lower upfront costs, reduced traffic congestion, a healthier workforce and cleaner air. Insurance, maintenance and repair costs also all come up significantly cheaper, too. Watch our video to learn more. Cargobike logistics report by ECF Cargo bikes on the rise: Reimagining city logistics 19 Apr 2021 ECF’s new article series shines the spotlight on the cargo bike, a rising star in the sustainable transition of our cities, by taking a closer look at what roles cargo bikes play in Brussels and Lisbon, two major European cities. The diversity of cargo bikes is truly astonishing. Whether for business or private purposes, cargo bikes take many different shapes and forms. Besides the cyclist, they can carry goods and people of up to 250 kg and can even be coupled with a trailer for extra capacity. Without a doubt, cargo bikes show great potential to increasingly shift away from motorised vehicles. In Europe, it is estimated that 50% of all motorised trips that involve the transport of goods in cities could be shifted to cargo bikes and bicycles. Private trips represent the biggest potential with two-thirds of all motorised trips being convertible to cargo bikes, an estimation that foreshadows a bright future for cargo bikes and families. There are great opportunities for businesses, too. Nowadays, the retail, food and logistics sectors are filling cities with vans and small trucks, resulting in highly congested roads, traffic noise and poor air quality being the daily routine for city dwellers. The pandemic has further exacerbated the acceleration of e-commerce, which keeps delivery volumes on a constantly rising slope. Pressure on urban freight logistics will increase as a great part of in-store shopping trips gradually shifts to commercial deliveries.
