Institute of Transportation Studies, Working Paper Series from Institute of Transportation Studies, UC Davis

Abstract: The use of cargo bikes for last-mile deliveries has seen renewed interest, as more sustainable modes are needed to meet the carbon reduction strategies. Furthermore, cargo-bikes contain possibly the greatest co-benefits of any emission reduction strategies for the freight sector. With the goal of informing state, regional, and local government efforts for transforming local goods movement, researchers at the University of California, Davis synthesized the literature on cargo bikes for goods movement with a specific focus on the challenges facing California. Key findings from the research are summarized in this brief.
