Great news for the Thames Estuary as we secure further funding for two innovative projects rethinking logistics in the UK. The Riverside Urban Logistics Environment (RULE) project takes another step forward with £20,000 secured to develop floating consolidation hubs along the Thames. These hubs, paired with e-cargo bikes, will create cleaner, more efficient logistics solutions, moving freight onto the river to ease congestion and cut emissions. We couldn't have secure this without our partners, Thames Freeport , Uber Boat by Thames Clippers, and Delivery Mates. We’ve also partnered with BioBright LTD and Port of Tyne to secure £20,000 for a project using cutting edge technology in real-time monitoring and algae-based systems to demonstrate how freight logistics can be further decarbonised. Together, these projects showcase how collaboration and innovation are driving cleaner, more sustainable logistics solutions for the Thames Estuary and beyond. #ThamesEstuary #SustainableLogistics #FairGrowth #Innovation #NetZero Pictured: RULE Report Authors - Rupert Wood MRICS, Rebecca Gibson, Gyula Törzsök and BioBright LTD monitoring system technology.

Geopost at ChangeNOW Today our Sustainability, Associate Director Caryn-Ann Allen took the floor to discuss decarbonising freight transport. She started off with our Net Zero ambition for 2040, which has been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative and how this objective is shifting our focus onto actions that will allow us to reach this goal. From a last mile delivery perspective, Caryn-Ann explained how we’ve already put in place 9,000 low-emission vehicles and aim to have a 100% alternative fleet by 2035. Beyond city centres, she also brought up how we’re diversifying our line haul fleet to electric trucks and making our voice louder with Climate Group / EV100+ to the market and policy makers. A main challenge we face for the line haul rollout is the charging infrastructure. Along with diminishing emissions, Caryn-Ann brought up the importance of innovation, highlighting our carbon budget that drives together financial and non-financial synergies. Our carbon budget allows us to track and assess our progress. We also initiated our carbon calculator that allows our clients to access data on the carbon footprint of their parcels as they move through our network. The session welcomed a large turnout and proved interesting and informative for all.
