When it comes to express transport, summer is no time to relax. At CIBLEX, it’s a time when our transport plan reinvents itself and adapts to meet new logistical needs, particularly in tourist areas: ‘This seemingly quieter period actually requires just as much, if not more, attention!’ says Enrico Vilar, Network Director.
Shifting flows: With the arrival of the holidays, volumes are concentrated in the south-west, south-east, west and coastal areas. These areas are becoming the nerve centres of our summer business.
Targeted adjustments: To keep pace with this shift in traffic flows, we are adapting our routes:
✔️Modification timetables
✔️Adaptation vehicle types (HGVs, SRs, LVs)
✔️Réorganisation night routes and our rounds
Mobilising our teams: Our transport plan teams remain fully mobilised to manage replacements for drivers on holiday, roadworks and the frequent motorway closures at this time of year. Increased vigilance is required to guarantee service reliability.
Objective: to maintain optimum efficiency of the network through agile logistics serving the busiest regions with the same quality of service.
