Munich
Focus: Integrated passenger and freight transport (city logistics) mobility hubs.
Goal: To place depot stations and cargo bicycles near public transport stops and bike-sharing stations in order to effectively utilize the potential for intermodal exchanges.
Method:
-
UPS will provide a portable depot station for parcel delivery which will be tested in different areas within Munich (including TUM main campus), and cargo bicycles can be rented to transport parcels.
-
These stations will be placed in the proximity of public transport stops and bike-sharing stations.
-
Rentable cargo bicycles will be placed near the portable depot station in order to facilitate last-mile parcel delivery between the portable depot and final delivery destinations.
-
The value added of a personal “mobility consultant” will be examined targeting elderly and digitally limited skilled population groups.
