As an increasing number of people are shopping online, it is paramount to promote and encourage the use of sustainable goods delivery and local pick-up options on webshops. The SuCoLo project will explore the alignment of needs, opportunities and interactions of relevant (freight) bicycle delivery actors, citizens and digital service providers to develop behaviour change techniques to nudge online consumers to choose net-zero methods of delivery. Using living lab methods and establishing an engaged advisory board, the project will design and test these novel tools and build new local pick-up hubs in Salzburg, Meran and Leipzig. Expected outcomes include tools, such as a behaviour change guidebook,a new simulation model for location planning of bicycle micro hubs and cargo bike-sharing to promote inclusive and neighbourhood-centred delivery/collection in our cities.
