![Country flag flag](/themes/custom/interreg/images/flags/fr.png)
About this good practice
The municipality of Lille has signed a partnership with La Poste, the larger mail and parcel operator providing universal delivery, to collaborate
Resources needed
2 persons from the city have regular meetings with regional and national representatives of La Poste to check the progress on different topics and projects.
Evidence of success
The partnership has enabled to solve situations quickly and to get quick feedback on specific issues such as the consequences of the generalisation of paid parking for logistics stakeholders. It has also permitted to elaborate co-designed diagnostic on the conditions of using cargo bikes in the city's public space.
Potential for learning or transfer
Having regular meetings with major delivery stakeholders is highly beneficial to get quick feedback on issues that might encounter delivery operators to find solutions quickly. It is also important to get information on the strategies and initiatives being considered by delivery companies to adapt policies either to help these initiatives to materialise, if considered beneficials, or to regulate in order to prevent negative effects on other aspects of city life.
