We're looking forward to Urbanism Next's 2024 Europe Conference, where we'll be looking at Zero-Emission Zones and the Intersection of Land-Use, Accessibility, and New Logistics Technologies in a session lead by Erik Regterschot (Royal HaskoningDHV), Gert Jan Prummel (Gemeente Den Haag), Jeska de Ruiter (Royal HaskoningDHV), Melissa Bruntlett (Royal HaskoningDHV), and Paul Buijs (University of Groningen)!

The growth of zero-emission (ZE) zones for city logistics requires understanding how they can sustainably reshape public space. Evaluating ZE-zone impacts on daily access and land-use organisation is vital. How might they limit access for logistics and essential services or impact mobility for residents with diverse needs?

This interactive session examines practical implications of ZE-zones from various perspectives; city and national government ambitions, academic research on logistics sector innovations, and experiential research on human impact. Participants in this session will learn to evaluate land-use and the impact of ZE-zones, and discuss sustainable development of equitable urban space.

If you're interested in joining us, the workshop will be held on Wednesday, October 9th at the Maritim Hotel, Amsterdam. Early bird registration is only until September 1st, so snag your discounted tickets today!
