🌍 It’s World Sustainable Transport Day 🌱🚊 Transport touches every part of our daily lives, every minute of every day. 🚶♀️🚲🚌 To show the importance of safe, affordable, and accessible transport, the 🌐 UN General Assembly declared 26 November 'World Sustainable Transport Day'. 📅 As we celebrate this day for the second time, let’s make sure that we put public transport at the heart of this global day! ❤️🚌🌍 António Guterres, United Nations Secretary-General: “The road to a better future depends on cleaner and greener transportation systems. We can steer our societies towards a cleaner and more sustainable path for people and planet.” ♻️🌏 🚨 Over half of the world’s population doesn’t have access to adequate sustainable transport systems. Even though, according to the UN, a car-free life can reduce a person’s annual carbon footprint by up to 3.6 tons. 🌿💨 🚶♂️🚴 Doubling the modal share of public transport and active mobility can achieve a 50% reduction in transport emissions. 🌟🌱 #SustainableTransport | #PublicTransport | #TransportDay2024

Research focused on cargo throughput in urban & regional environments. "Feeder Logistics"

Adding cargo-parcel "Feeder" services (rail & road), can generate fixed revenues & contribute to massive positive multiplier effects for communities, regions, & nations, 24/7. Required: (a) refurbished, &/or new, cargo rail wagons & double-deck buses, linked to upstream DCs for optimal B2B replenishment, D2C/B2C/postal/recycle. (b) The Common Denominator: Standardized "Feeder RO-RO" carts with (IoT/AI) options, including non-motorized "reefer" carts, for ease of handling, linking all locations & vehicles, 24/7. Postal systems have "Feeder RO-RO" carts. Example; Varamis Rail, UK., VGF Flex Cargo Trams, Frankfurt, DE. Others.....
