Commissioner Flynn discusses freight mobility and cargo bikes
Flynn says DOT encourages commercial cargo bicycles for last-mile deliveries, which replace trucks and improve safety and sustainability.
We've also been taking meaningful steps towards our mission to provide the safe, equitable, and sustainable movement of goods and people citywide through our freight mobility and sustainable delivery work.
We continue to encourage companies to use commercial cargo bicycles to make local and last mile deliveries across the city and with
in recent years authorized the use of e-cargo bikes along with key safety standards.
Cargo bikes have a direct benefit on safety and sustainability as each bike replaces a truck or van that would otherwise deliver those goods to the final customer.
