Saba is convinced it will be able to assist in management of more sustainable Last Mile Deliveries (LMD). It proposes two lines of action to achieve this: the creation of micro-hubs for distribution of local goods, and mass deployment of lockers for collection and delivery of e-commerce products.

The car park as
an ally of the sustainable
last mile
The car parks must act as small micro-distribution hubs from which parcels are delivered on foot or using electric personal mobility vehicles. The authorities need to face up to a situation that is getting worse by the day, with the growth in e-commerce, by taking advantage of existing city infrastructures, such as car parks. Their location in dense areas, along with their 24 hour/365 day opening gives them a relevant role in tackling the pollution and congestion caused.
