The software integrates various modes of transport, including cargo bikes and taxis for the last mile. The train is also included.<\/p>\n<p>(Lucerne) The number of hours spent in traffic jams on the Swiss road network has significantly increased again in the past year. This means that the costs of express deliveries made by road are rising. Courier vehicles stuck in traffic deliver urgently needed goods late to the recipient and consume more fuel. Delivery delays for urgently needed shipments in the B2B sector are not welcome, as subsequent processes are tightly scheduled.<\/p>\n<p>Michael Hauenstein, Head of Marketing &amp; Sales at swissconnect, says: &#8220;Wouldn&#8217;t it be nice if there were a courier service that bypasses traffic jams and delivers not only quickly but also ecologically? With our unique logistics software, we have achieved just that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Traffic Jams Lead to Delivery Delays<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Anyone traveling on Swiss roads today risks getting stuck in a traffic jam more than ever and arriving later than planned at their destination. This applies not only to private individuals but also to courier drivers transporting express shipments. The Federal Roads Office (ASTRA) has published relevant figures in the report &#8220;Traffic Development and Traffic Flow 2019.&#8221; In 2019, 27.8 billion vehicle kilometers were traveled on Swiss roads &#8211; about 100 million more than the previous year. Additionally, more than 30,230 hours of traffic jams were recorded, representing an increase of over 10% compared to the previous year. The most common cause (89%) of traffic jams is not accidents or construction sites, but rather the &#8220;overloading of the road network.&#8221; Experts therefore estimate that the Swiss national road network is increasingly reaching its capacity limits.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Rising Costs for Express Deliveries on the Road<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Express deliveries in the B2B sector, such as laboratory samples, spare parts, medications, and important documents, must be delivered as quickly as possible. The recipient is already waiting for the courier with the urgent shipment, as subsequent processes are already planned and tightly scheduled. &#8220;For example, the patient is waiting for the results of their tissue sample, which should be analyzed immediately upon arrival at the laboratory,&#8221; explains Hauenstein.<\/p>\n<p>Delays due to traffic jams result in rising costs in several respects. The courier driver needs more time and fuel for the same route. Meanwhile, well-trained personnel and expensive analysis equipment in the laboratory are waiting for the delayed arrival of the courier driver. The economic damage caused by lost time is significant. A vehicle in a traffic jam emits more fuel and thus a larger amount of the harmful greenhouse gas CO<sub>2<\/sub>. This severely harms the environment and our health.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Courier Service swissconnect Bypasses Traffic Jams<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Express deliveries in the B2B sector must be handled quickly, punctually, and ecologically. Michael Hauenstein is proud of swissconnect&#8217;s solution: &#8220;The unique logistics software from swissconnect cleverly combines different modes of transport to bypass traffic jams and deliver faster. Professional bicycle couriers are deployed within the largest 23 Swiss cities to pick up and deliver urgent shipments by bike or cargo bike. Between the cities, the train is used, and in remote areas, taxis take over the last mile.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Renowned companies from various industries rely on swissconnect&#8217;s over 20 years of experience to deliver their express shipments past traffic jams to their destinations.<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.astra.admin.ch\/astra\/de\/home\/themen\/nationalstrassen\/verkehrsfluss-stauaufkommen\/verkehrsfluss-nationalstrassen.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Traffic Development and Traffic Flow 2019<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>Photo: \u00a9 Adobe Stock<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swissconnect.ch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.swissconnect.ch<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The express service provider swissconnect cleverly bypasses traffic jams on Swiss roads with intelligent logistics software.
