We would also like to thank Greg Slater, Elizabeth Fonseca and Oliver Lord at the Environmental Defense Fund Europe for their research contribution to this report. In addition, we would like to thank all our anonymous interviewees for generously giving their time. We particularly thank Nadine CollinsSmith (Head of Thames Vision Delivery, Port of London Authority), Joe Dack (Transportation Logistics Project Manager, HDR), Thomas Parker (Senior On-Road Policy Manager, Amazon UK), Ian Wainwright (Independent Consultant, Future City Logistics) and Martin Wedderburn (Director, Wedderburn Transport Planning) for their advice and comments on the report.

Our thanks also go to our colleagues at Centre for London for making this report happen – especially Jeeshan Choudhury, Rumela Kundu, Ines Oliveira, Denean Rowe and Jon Tabbush for their help conducting fieldwork. Nevertheless, the views expressed in this report are solely those of the authors, and all errors and omissions remain our own. Finally, this project would not have been possible without the generous support of our Principal Sponsor, Prologis UK; our Major Sponsor, Grid Smarter Cities; our Funder, Impact on Urban Health; and our Supporting Sponsor, the London Borough of Southwark.
