How the model works

About 2,500 sample points stand in for Port Avery's 149,000 households, spread by district. Each is served from its quickest open hub.

The 20 minutes run from order to door: 4 minutes to pick and pack, then the ride and the handover.
Riders cover 15 km/h on bikes, 17 on e-cargo bikes and 24 in vans at midday; 14, 16 and 11 at evening rush. Road distance is 1.3 times the straight line (1.45 for vans).
The river only crosses at Harbour Bridge and East Bridge. At evening rush, vans lose 5 minutes queuing at a bridge.
Couriers cost £15.20 an hour on bikes, £18.40 on e-cargo bikes and £27.50 in vans, carrying 1, 1.6 and 2.4 orders a trip.
Volume is 2,400 orders a day, 72,000 a month. Average delivery covers every household, in reach or not.
