As part of London-based non-profit organisation Cross River Partnership’s (CRP’s) Clean Air Village 3 and 4 programmes, the Northbank BID is offering a free cargo bike courier service to enable businesses to carry out zero-emission deliveries.
Any business that delivers within five miles of the Northbank BID can sign up for the service, which is available Monday to Friday from 9am to 7pm and Saturday to Sunday from 9am to 5pm.
Bookings must be arranged 24 hours in advance and any goods being delivered need to be less than 120kg to fit into the cargo bike.
The cargo bike service, which is provided by Ecofleet, was showcased as part of Westminster City Council’s Clean Air Day activities in June.
Councillor Heather Acton said: “We are making it easier for residents and visitors to choose sustainable transport options, taking action to improve the air that we all breathe, and working together to achieve our carbon neutral ambitions.”
