A Transit System That Grows…
People want to get places quickly. In most cases, you can only find transit that goes far and fast in the largest of cities, with enough people to create demand. Good transit costs money and we need to find ways to pay for it.
Package Transit, by adding demand throughout the day, brings in badly needed income to provide vital transit services.
A Carbon Negative Delivery System
The ever-increasing demand for fast delivery brings ever-increasing toxic truck emissions, mostly to dense urban areas - where it does the most damage. Tulips Package Transit, utilizing buses and zero carbon last mile vehicles, changes that.
Package Transit transforms transit systems, leading to higher quality and expanded service. Providing greater frequency can drastically reduce the long wait at bus stops. This is a path, not just to fewer trucks, but fewer cars, too - a carbon negative system.
Building More Bike Routes
It is basic Economics 101: wherever you see demand, supply follows. Containers holding massive numbers of packages, using transit loading stations and buses moving on their normal routes. No extra trucks or drivers are needed.
With Package Transit, user fees from the service can be allocated to expand transit, to build new and better bike paths and routes - world-class ways to move people and packages.
Building New Infrastructure…
and maintaining what we already have
Take a look at the many delivery trucks in your neighborhood, especially the ones with four tires in the back to hold the extra weight. They are gradually wearing down our streets. We’re not only paying due to the diesel exhaust and the extra congestion—we are also paying for this kind of wear and tear.
Finding ways to reduce the high volume of trucks helps maintain our streets.
Health Benefits from
Transit Delivery
Tulips Package Transit reduces toxic diesel exhaust that can cause serious health conditions like asthma and respiratory illnesses and can worsen heart and lung disease, especially in children and the elderly.
Adding more bike routes provides opportunities to get exercise…and fresh air.
