On the 3rd of October, the City of Maribor and the University of Maribor co-organised the 1st Freight Quality Partnership (FQP) meeting, whose framework was initially established within SULPITER project. The meeting served to present the data gathered through the questionnaires regarding the delivery of parcels in the pedestrian zone of Maribor which was performed during the summer 2024.
Participants from business associations, transport and logistic operators, and regional development agency emphasized the importance of comfortable delivery in the city centre where they perform their business.
During the meeting several delivery solutions were illustrated, including micro-urban consolidation centre, parcel locker network, delivery zones equipped with zero emission vehicles, etc, which gathered a lot of interest.
Participants agreed to continue their cooperation and discussions will continue in future meetings, presumably in January 2025.
