Going the last mile.

Posted by on

UPS is going the last mile with pedal power and electric assist deliveries. This cuts pollution and delivery van traffic during peak hours. For cities with bike lanes traffic is shifted off the street. Restaurant deliveries and bike carriers have enjoyed the advantages of nimble shifting from street to sidewalk as needed. Drivers can ride right up to the door with your packages.
