On 6th September 2024, over 50 delegates from the City of Oslo, local and international businesses, and city officials from Stockholm, Gothenburg and Munich attended the Urban Logistics for Ambitious Climate Cities event at Oslo City Hall. The event was hosted the City of Oslo, MOVE21, ETP-ALICE and C40 Cities.
During the event, two insightful panel discussions brought together experts from government and the private sector to explore key issues related to integrating land use and urban logistics, and ways in which we can advance zero-emission and efficient urban logistics.
“Urban logistics is the last piece of the puzzle that hasn’t had enough attention. We are creating a Green Mobility Plan that will include urban logistics – now is the time to invite the private sector to join the discussion and feed in advice.” – Marit Kristine Vea, Oslo Vice Mayor for Environment and Transport.
The roundtable event provided a space for public and private sector attendees to speak openly on challenges to, and opportunities for, zero emission and efficient freight logistics across the Norwegian capital. The forum aimed to strengthen public-private collaborations, build momentum toward an aligned vision for effective urban logistics, and advance concrete next steps for policy action. Throughout the day, delegates had the opportunity to share their thoughts on pressing urban logistics topics in constructive roundtable discussions.
