How is Freight Viewed?
Why we need a fresh approach
•We have tried everything else
•Freight is a commercial contract with operator
and customer
•Governments approach is to add a new
regulation
•Regulation & compliance can increase costs
•Awarding freight contracts on cost alone can
increases risk of non-compliance, negating
benefit of regulation

Delivery & Servicing Plans
Key Aims of a DSP / CLP
• Deliveries reduced, rescheduled or
consolidated, costs are lower
•Cut congestion / environmental impact
• Identify legal loading / unloading plans
• Encourage ‘green’ procurement
• Influence building design to minimise
construction related trips
• Improve safety compliance
Research to understand what's wrong
• Conflict between loading, servicing
and other road users
• Regent St 26,700 vehicles 1 in 5
are goods vehicles
• 1 in 5 are associated with Regent
Street
• 4 in 10 go to offices, only 1 in 5 go
to retail
• Most are 7am - 4 pm
• 7 in 10 are van the rest trucks

• Policy 12 (Chapter 4)
The Mayor, through TfL, and working with the DfT, Network
Rail, train operating companies, London boroughs and other
stakeholders including business and the freight industry, will
seek to improve the distribution of freight through the
provision of better access to/from Strategic Industrial
Locations, delivery and servicing plans, and other efficiency
measures across London.
Proposal 117 (Chapter 5 part 6)
The Mayor, through TfL, and working with the London
boroughs, and other stakeholders in the public and private
sectors, will improve the efficiency and effectiveness of
freight operations through the promotion of ‘delivery and
servicing plans’, ‘construction logistics plans’, the Freight
Operator Recognition Scheme, Freight Quality Partnerships
and other efficiency measures across London.
