Cargo bikes are transport means with specific operating demands. Factors that may not be important to other transport means may be critical to the use of cargo bikes. The use of cargo bikes for the last mile delivery is therefore not universally applicable. Cargo bikes are currently operated in many cities with diverse geomorphologic, weather, and urbanistic conditions. Also, the infrastructure and its quality may vary. The article analyzes how local conditions can affect the operation of cargo bikes for last mile delivery. In response to this analysis, the conditions in selected cities in the Czech Republic are evaluated and compared.
