Summary:

Delhi is preparing to implement its 'Logistics and Warehousing Policy 2025' to improve freight operations, decrease congestion, and cut pollution. The initiative aims to create logistical hubs, green freight routes, and technology-based solutions. Warehouses will be moved to the city's outskirts, with goods aggregated in Urban Consolidation and Logistics Distribution Centres (UCLDCs). Electric and compressed natural gas vehicles will be pushed for last-mile delivery. These techniques are intended to reduce motor emissions and enhance air quality in crowded zones.

The Delhi Logistics and Warehousing Policy 2025 specifies 16 major action items, including 24/7 logistics park operations through Model Shops Act modifications and a digital delivery management system. It offers commercial parking zones with loading bays under a public-private partnership approach to address truck parking shortages and modernise freight management. The proposal includes subsidies such as land leasing reductions, cold chain enhancements, and green energy incentives. It was developed by the Department of Industries in accordance with the National Logistics Policy to alleviate congestion and pollution.
