SUBJECT;
TSM MEASURE: FLEXIBLE TRUCK DELIVERY
SPECIFIC RE EST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AMID JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Refer to the Transportation Committee
the idea of communicating with stores and other businesses about
flexible truck delivery hours to help reduce the need for truck
traffic during peak commute hours.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: It was brought to my attention by
beverage company representatives that stores on their delivery routes
often have restrictive delivery schedules (usually around 9 a.m. to 11,
a.m. ) This makes it necessary for the company' s trucks to be on the
road during the peak commute hours to make delivery times. Also, if
delivery trucks get held up in traffic and don' t get to their
destination on time--they are sent back full and must duplicate the
trip on another day.
As a TSM measure, the county could communicate with the
various stores and businesses that requirement shipments of beverages
(or other products) to allow flexible delivery time throughout the day
so the companies with the slow-moving trucks that have, for instance,
regularly impeded traffic in East County on Highway 4 would have
greater ability to deliver during the off-peak hours.
