Palletforce has incorporated Olympic data into its Alliance IT system to provide its 100 UK depots with the latest Games information this summer.
Network members now have information about the 109 Olympic Games Lanes on the Olympic Route Network, as well as delivery restrictions affecting venues.
Dean Hughes, IT director for Palletforce, says: “During the games there will be road layout alterations, diversions, parking and loading restrictions, special Games Lanes and extra security measures all of which will impact on the transport network.”
“Out IT developments will help us adapt delivery schedules effectively, avoid the daytime restrictions and ensure our customers continue to receive the quality service they expect.”
It comes as Transport for London releases a free Olympic Freight Planner to help operators navigate the disruption London 2012 will bring this summer.
