Cities Climate Action Summit 2024 – meet the exhibitor: AppyWay

Why did you choose to get involved with the Cities Climate Action Summit this year?

AppyWay chose to get involved with the Cities Climate Action Summit this year to leverage its expertise in kerbside management as a mechanism for unlocking sustainable kerbside and contribute to the global dialogue on climate action. By participating, AppyWay aims to showcase how the latest intelligent kerbside management solutions can help cities and drivers optimise operations and transition to net zero. AppyWay is looking forward to engaging with city leaders, policymakers, and other stakeholders at the summit, sharing our expertise, learning from others, and fostering collaborations that drive meaningful climate action.

What will you be showing/bringing/demonstrating at this year’s Summit?

At this year’s Summit, AppyWay will be demonstrating Traffic Suite, Europe’s leading intelligent kerbside management platform, and our kerbside data offering that helps the fleets and drivers of today optimise journeys. 

Traffic Suite, our flagship product, revolutionises the way traffic orders are managed, the UK’s regulatory mechanism for making kerbside changes. The award-winning Traffic Suite offers a comprehensive, user-friendly solution. With Traffic Suite, the transition from manual, text-based processes to automated, highly accurate digital map-based management is seamless and 75 per cent faster than other processes.

AppyWay’s data solutions keep people, goods, and cities flowing. A full ecosystem of comprehensive kerbside data APIs, payment solutions and integrations improves access and drives efficiencies for local enterprises, customers, deliveries, and fleets alike.

What are you hoping to learn from this year’s Summit?

We look forward to understanding the successful strategies and policies other cities have implemented to manage their kerbsides and reduce emissions. We want to explore new technologies and approaches that could enhance our platform and benefit our city partners. We’re keen to hear about the challenges and needs of cities, planners, and residents and to identify potential partnerships and collaborative opportunities with other organisations and municipalities committed to climate action.

What bold steps should cities make to accelerate climate action and what successful examples have you seen?

Implement digital kerbside management. Cities need to adopt dynamic and data-driven kerbside management systems to optimise the use of kerb space, reduce congestion, and promote sustainable modes of transportation. 

We’ve seen this in action in London. In Southwark, the council is digitally managing its kerbside via AppyWay’s Traffic Suite to reach its cycle hangar installation goals. Digital kerbside management has enabled the council to slash the time it takes to amend and implement static order cycle hangar schemes from five weeks to two and to double its initial goal of installing 200 in the last two years. It is now aiming to install 200 over the next 12 months. 

Another London council leading the way is Lambeth. The London Borough of Lambeth is using digital kerbside management to implement, monitor, and report on sustainable kerbside against its kerbside strategy. With an ambitious target of 25 per cent sustainable kerbside by 2030, Lambeth is using AppyWay’s Traffic Suite to futureproof its processes and make the kerbside changes needed to meet its target.
