PositiveImpact If successful, the Green Freight Corridor Initiative would significantly reduce congestion from heavy goods vehicles on the A1 motorway, resulting in decreased air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. By promoting electric heavy-duty trucks, this initiative would directly contribute to Switzerland's climate goals and foster a more sustainable freight transport system, creating a long-term asset of cleaner air and improved urban mobility for future generations.

NegativeImpact The initiative may fail to achieve its ambitious goals if the necessary infrastructure for electric heavy-duty trucks (such as charging stations) is not adequately developed. Additionally, if not enough freight operators adopt electric vehicles or the transition takes longer than expected, the initiative may result in continued congestion and pollution, compromising future generations' quality of life and leading to potential reliance on fossil fuels.
