City of Borås

Borås is the largest e-trade city in Sweden and the Nordic countries. Strong growth regarding population and industry puts demand on proactive close cooperation. The City is heavily dependent on logistic competence and development connected to national and international networks. Key areas are high capacity transports, resource minimizing, electrification, digitalisation and urban logistics, all with close cooperation between municipality, industry and public.

Key Challenge

Borås is growing dynamically and putting pressure on new districts, busy city centres and increasing commercial traffic. This requires efficient and sustainable solutions for both distribution and return traffic.

Possible Solutions

• Borås wants to exploit the transnational learning from MoLo Hubs to test different use cases of logistics services at mobility hubs based on findings of the other pilot areas.
  
   
• This is to be realised through pilots with special attention to city design and spatial planning when it comes to blue prints for future city and district development.
  
   
• The aim is to create specific solutions that can be replicated in new urban development areas, fitting to the specific user needs there.
