Total freight mileage is 29.1 billion vehicle kmsProportion of urban miles is 16%Urban fuel consumption for a rigid vehicle might average 10.8 mpg compared to overall average of 11.2 mpgThe total proportion of urban CO2emissions out of all freight miles driven is 19%
Government Helping the Freight Industry to Help Itself
AimsMainly to encourage Road Freight Operators to reduce their emissions of CO2
Road Hauliers are not easily inspired to make behavioural change with ‘Environmental Messages’ alone
Freight Best Practice has reduced CO2 emissions from the freight industry by 240,000 tonnes over the last two years
Fleets which utilise the Freight Best Practice programme save on average £20,500 per year
Industry savings directly attributable to the use of Freight Best Practice programme material total £83 million 2005 - 2007
