Third International Joint Transfer Exercise Workshop
BRUSSELS, BelgiumCity Plans
The SUCCESS project targets the construction industry as one of the largest consumers of urban freight transport. A more innovative approach to construction logistics and supply chain management could help reduce negative impacts and increase productivity and transport efficiency in the sector. SUCCESS is financed by the H2020 programme and part of the CIVITAS Urban Freight Cluster.
The take up of the SUCCESS’ solutions on a wider European level will be guaranteed through the project’s Enlarged Transfer Programme (ETP). Three workshops in different European areas will address 12 selected non-partner cities affected by a sensible growth in the construction sector as well as their local stakeholders implicated in the construction supply chain.
The third International Joint Transfer Exercise Workshop will take place on 14 and 15 November 2017 in Brussels and will be jointly organised with the UrbanWise project.
The workshop will give the occasion to each participating city to present the current situation of construction logistics in their territory, gain knowledge of the SUCCESS solutions, discuss with other local stakeholders about the impact of construction logistics on their urban area and learn from the experiences of other EU cities.

Travel and accommodation costs for the workshop will be covered by the SUCCESS project.
The commitment expected from a city will mainly consist in:
- Extending the invitation to relevant local stakeholders of the construction supply chain
- Presenting the state of the art of the local context in terms of city logistics measures that could have impacts on the construction sector
Cities will benefit from the support of the SUCCESS partners to analyse their specific contexts in order to prepare the workshop.
