Freight Consolidation for Norwich                     

Norwich is a historic city with many listed buildings and conservation areas and at the same time is a thriving regional commercial and retail centre. The Norwich Freight Consolidation Centre aims to reduce the number of vehicles delivering into the city and is one of a number of measures forming part of the CIVITAS initiative for cleaner and better transport in cities, which is co-financed by the European Union. 

Benefits to business in Norwich:                                    

• Helping to reduce congestion
• Improving air quality
• Allowing more frequent deliveries
• Offering more convenient delivery times
• The potential to reduce stockholding in store
• The potential to increase retail space
• The option for out of hours delivery (early and late)
• Making the city even more attractive to business, residents, visitors and shoppers

Benefits to people in Norwich:

• Deliveries in "clean" low emission vehicles to improve air quality
• Consolidation means fewer vehicles delivering into the city centre which in turn gives:
  • A reduction in vehicle movements

  • A reduction in noise pollution
  • Reduced wear and tear on the city roads
