The Freight in the City Expo is back this autumn after a successful inaugural event in 2015 that saw more than 650 attendees head to London to learn more about sustainable urban deliveries.

The free-to-attend event, Freight in the City Expo 2016, will be held on 2 November at London’s Alexandra Palace.

Two exhibition halls will showcase the latest equipment, while a complementary seminar programme will provide guidance on the best ways for cities to promote sustainable freight movements.

Key themes for this year’s seminar programme include a look at London mayor Sadiq Khan’s focus on improving air quality in the capital and what implications this will have on commercial vehicle use.

It will also look at methods for reducing city centre congestion, such as consolidation and retiming deliveries; improving vulnerable road user safety; and a look at the latest advancements in alternative fuels and drivelines.
