| Working from home means more demand for work related supplies. Not everyone is an unproductive worker using just a phone and a laptop or desktop computer, as many are productive and use consumables to make their living. Thus deliveries which were not required when working in a fixed location are now needed everywhere. Lorries only deliver heavy goods and LTNs are seriously impeding deliveries to such districts adding huge costs to the recipient. It does make a lot of things unviable when in competition with other businesses elsewhere. Ultimately that will cost jobs and render too many local businesses unviable. But delivery companies are also affected by LTNs. They are taking much longer and with increased mileages and fuel use. Electric vehicles are only efficient on routes that are as practicable as possible too much running mileage make the deliveries more costly and reduces the capacity by range. So to keep to promised delivery times for customers up to 3 delivery vehicles have to be used where there was just one. Otherwise business is lost. So now smaller vans are now servicing larger vans. But with self employed zero hours workers who can only make money by meeting targets and exceeding them. That means speeding, and more vehicles movements in LTNs than there were before. Disguard residents movements and the figures are way up already. And stop start is the most polluting form of combustion engined use. And yes pavements and kerbs are getting damaged but notably by Council vehicles too large for the streets they are deployed in. |
