Logroño represents in DECARBOMILE the Southern European context, with its 150.211 inhabitants, which correspond to 80% of the population living around 1km from the city centre.As main transport and access routes there are two roads that connect with the main industrial areas of the municipality, located about 3 km from the centre. The distribution of goods in Logroño is based on retail distribution, which uses the most urban roads in the municipality, and on wholesale distribution, which uses the main access roads to the industrial areas of the municipality. In the heart of Logroño there is a historic centre that constitutes an important tourist and commercial focus. It concentrates a large number of shops, tapas bars and restaurants, and is also crossed by the Camino de Santiago, which means that pedestrians are constantly on the streets. This district has access control systems for cars and lorries, reinforced by traffic cameras, and with access restrictions during specific times of the day.
Use case(s) description
Three use cases are planned in the Logroño Living Lab, aiming at improving the living conditions in the city and in particular to alleviate the crowded streets of the historical centre. These pilots focus on boosting new delivery services based on cycle logistics, creating opportunities for local entrepreneurs to engage in sustainable urban logistics, while promoting shopping in local commerce.

Use Case 1 – Intermodal Nano Hub An intermodal nano hub has been set up in a public parking area close to the restricted pedestrian zone of Logroño’s city centre. The hub supports the shift from vans and trucks to cargo bikes for last-mile deliveries, helping reduce congestion and emissions. Cargo bikes provided by the municipal mobility platform are available for local shops and merchants to test this service free of charge. The initiative also aims to encourage additional logistics operators to join and adopt more sustainable urban delivery models in the future.
