DECARBOMILE project meeting

Next DECARBOMILE project meeting will take place 20-22 April 2026 in Istanbul, Turkey.

The project aims to develop interoperable and multimodal vehicles for last mile delivery in urban contexts. it gathers 31 partners from 10 different countries. Multimodal and electric vehicles present a strong potential for greening transportation in cities, especially in terms of optimised delivery service, improved air quality and reduced congestion. DECARBOMILE works on logistics vehicles optimisation, especially regarding cargo-bikes and testing their combinations with transportation modes alternative to the road and conventional trucks (river, rail).

The solutions developed in DECARBOMILE will demonstrate the full potential of decarbonised last mile logistics in four living labs (in Logrono – Spain, Nantes -France, Hamburg – Germany and Istanbul – Turkey) and 4 satellites (Tallinn – Estonia, Getafe – Spain, Ghent – Belgium and Sarajevo – Bosnia and Herzegovina) will be involved at a smaller scale to test and study the solution in their own local contexts. To be successful in its implementation, DECARBOMILE will rely on developed methodologies to implement the new solutions and delivery methods in collaboration with all relevant local stakeholders, based on their needs and behaviours.
The UBC has taken part in the regulation benchmarking regarding urban distribution of goods in the cities and is a partner in this project.
