Experiment in Vienna. Traveling like a curry. And what about Prague?
The inhabitants of Vdn ordered around 96 million balconies per year, and the number of orders increased due to the pandemic. The popular transport company Wiener Linien asked itself whether it would be possible to take passengers on public transport, in particular trams, as couriers. It is a good idea to expand the existing everyday connection associated with the average number of passengers, to the daily Metro media representative of the Foreign Office of the city of Vienna Martin Landa.
Mail application
According to Landa, an innovative case would be quite simple. Passengers and single-person couriers could in the future use an application that would analyze their regular public transit journeys. Consequently, the individual would recommend packages that you need to transport exactly along these routes. lon boxes at the stops could be easily opened and closed with the help of QR kd, add Landa.
Let’s see
Denk Metro turned to the communication of the Prague transport company Daniel abka with the question of whether a similar project could be launched in the conditions of the domestic metropolis. abkv attitude is a bag still very insidious.
For the time being, we are unable to assess the project in such a way that we are qualified to know how the pros or cons, the strong and the weaknesses, the pitfalls and the risks and threats. The other colleagues from Vdn will have a feasibility study for the case, explains Metro abk. However, we are in regular contact with colleagues from a major transport company, and they will have a feasibility study ready, and we will know about its results, adds abk. According to the daily Metro, it is not yet considered or put by similar transport companies in the Czech Republic.
It will work?
I have a master of Vdn piznv that he will not answer many questions yet. Before implementing an innovative idea, the Austrian metropolis, for example, has to evaluate the specific location of the box over the maximum size of shipments and the constraints on peak times and the assisted system. Don’t talk about the mobile app itself.
Two, we will not test this project in a large pilot operation, we want to know from our passengers whether and under what conditions they would be willing to travel on the road at all. After all, they are the first passengers to be at the center of this climate protection project, said Wiener Linien director Alexandra Reinagl.
Cyclodepa
As for the crack of the master, the number of courier wagons in the center of Prague is trying to make a profit space for trucks. In November last year, the first city cyclodepo was opened in Florence for the delivery of shipments around the city center on expensive e-bikes. Dal works a few weeks to Smchov. The cyclodep delivery company mainly uses the so-called last mile routes to the customer. The companies are also researching the possibility of using expensive bicycles in other Czech cities. In addition, the depot in Florence was one of the best European projects in the Eurocities Awards 2021. In a number of smart cities, on the other hand, Prague has recently collapsed.
