PositiveImpact By shifting heavy freight transport to electric vehicles and establishing dedicated green freight lanes, the initiative could significantly reduce transportation-related air pollutants over time. This would lead to improved air quality, resulting in long-term health benefits for future generations. Moreover, promoting electric vehicles paves the way for further advancements in sustainable transport technologies, creating a greener transport ecosystem.

NegativeImpact However, the initiative may overlook the urgent need for comprehensive congestion management solutions that also address passenger vehicle traffic. This single-minded focus on freight may lead to continued urban congestion and air pollution from other vehicle types, limiting the overall effectiveness of emissions reductions. Furthermore, reliance on electric truck adoption could be hindered by high costs, inadequate charging infrastructure, or lack of regulatory support, potentially delaying expected impacts.
