Ready, Set, Go HOW will this affect the PALLET-TRACK NETWORK 21
What can Customers do? Reduce - pre-order and stock up before the games Re-time - out-of-hours deliveries, change opening times Re-route - deliver to another location / office Revise mode - collect from local depot by request Communication with your customers is key to facilitate changes in operations REDUCE RE-TIME RE-ROUTE Arrange out of hours deliveries, when the roads will be quieter Postpone non-essentials deliveries until after the Games Review postcode data and re-route deliveries where available Consolidate multiple orders into a single delivery to reduce journeys. 22
KEY MESSAGING Deliveries, collections and servicing BUSINESS Operator/supplier What is your current activity? What is the effect of the Games on your locataion(s)?

Code of Practice for Out-of-hours delivery Developed in partnership with the FTA, NAS, Boroughs and London Councils Out-of-hours QUIETER delivery A best practice guide for quieter deliveries that operators can adopt, providing practical advice and guidance Trials undertaken at a range of locations and business types across London, including: - Hotel - Supermarket and convenience store No noise complaints were received at any trial site However, many business addresses will not open at night time.
