regulatory infringements
AIR QUALITY • 24% road transport CO2 emissions in London in 2013 • 33% of road transport NOx emissions in London in 2013 • 27% of road transport PM10 emissions in London in 2013
CONGESTION • Long term reallocation of road space • If unchecked – 60% increase by 2031 • Routes and kerb-space

Final thoughts
23
Why? • Cycling fatalities • Levels of congestion mean focus on essential traffic • Industry engagement • 10 years of practice How is change being delivered • Mayor pushing for changes to freight • TfL has staff who understand, and can ‘talk the talk’ • TfL is planning longer term strategy for freight, and for future land use • Increasing focus on role of procurement
London now ‘gets’ freight
24
• While the Mayor and TfL ‘get’ freight, do they also ‘get’ supply chains?
• With a focus on procurement, can we think about the customer paying for impact of their delivery? Road pricing?
• London is changing
o Uncertainty with Brexit
o Global city
• Customer demand changing – on demand
• Technology
• TfL changing; organisational restructure
But...
