Barcelona is recognised as a European leader city for a number of
logistics innovations including multi-use lanes (developed within the MIRACLES project) and quiet night-time deliveries (MIRACLES and SILENCE
projects). It was one of the 3 trial sites of the FIDEUS project, where
a new low-emissions truck was tested in day and night scenarios. It was
also the first Spanish city to trail a microplataform with electric
vans and bicycles used to realise ‘last-mile deliveries’. Its parking
management strategy, granted with the 2006 OSMOSE award for innovative
Demand Management strategy, has contributed to improve indicators for
traffic circulation and illegal parking by goods vehicles.
