Clean Cities campaign pic of London cargobikes Clean Cities campaign seeks policies for zero-emission freight including e-cargobikes royal mail trialled ecargobikes in Edinburgh details of the inquiry.. Future of FReight Scotland’s freight system is polluting, inefficient, and overlooked — we must explore better ways of moving goods that better support Scotland’s economy, public health, and the climate. How do we move goods better? A discussion in Parliament Freight keeps Scotland moving. Whether it’s supermarket shelves being stocked, construction materials delivered to site, or parcels arriving at our doors. But the way we move goods today is taking a toll: on our roads, on our towns and cities, and on the people who live in them. Last-mile deliveries, mostly by vans and light trucks covering short distances, are increasingly clogging urban areas, adding to congestion and pollution. Meanwhile, cross-border freight by heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) remains dominant, but there’s a huge untapped opportunity to shift much of this freight onto rail. With a typical freight train carrying the equivalent of 76 HGVs, rail freight can significantly reduce road traffic, lower emissions, and cut road damage. Within Scotland, over 50 million tonnes of freight travel more than 100km – mostly by road – but rail currently captures only a small fraction of this market. For international freight, there are clear opportunities to further reduce truck traffic by shifting more international goods to sea and rail rather than road or air. The Scottish Parliament’s Cross-Party Group on Sustainable Transport is leading a new inquiry series, Future of Freight, to explore how to build a smarter, cleaner, and more efficient freight system for Scotland’s economy, environment, and communities. The latest news and events on the CPG’s work programme will be added below. Find out more about the CPG’s work here.

@letsgocargo.bsky.social
A subsidy for #ebikes, #ecargobikes as well as winter tires would have a much larger impact on urban mobility and GHG emissions reduction due to their lower initial cost compared to EV's and less resources needed to build them.

And they fit so well in our congested cities! 🚲👍

True. Just nationalize bikelanes, give away 400K ebikes/ecargobikes a year at $1B a year. Will do more to shift carbrain mentality and pollution while also increasing business. Studies are consistent in showing areas with bikelanes experience higher sales and foot traffic compared to those without

A promotional graphic for a new ELEVATE blog post. The text at the top reads: 'New ELEVATE blog! Does a ride with an e-cargo bike count as physical activity?' Below this, there is a photograph of two people standing outside a modern brick building with glass doors, holding e-cargo bikes. They are both smiling, and the bikes are equipped with cargo racks and bags. To the right of the image, additional text states: 'ELEVATE research project supervises ITS MSc Dissertation, 4 min read.' At the bottom, a hyperlink is provided: 'https://blogs.brighton.ac.uk/elevate/blog/' The background is black, with white text and megaphone icons on either side of the title
