People-Centric Mobility & Logistics Hubs
MoLo hubs, an EU-funded transnational innovation project (2023-2026), aims to tackle challenges related to urban mobility and logistics. It focuses on the development, implementation and assessment of logistics services at mobility hubs to reduce urban traffic. The pilot cities within MoLo hubs are: Aalborg, Amsterdam, Boras, Hamburg, Mechelen. During our session we will share the challenges and goals of the project, dive into the Amsterdam pilot (servicelogistics hub) and share knowledge about the relation between mobility/logistics hubs, socio-economic and environmental values, urban design and spatial planning.
