DPD’s latest UK depot, in Bicester, Oxfordshire, has been opened by double Olympic and nine times world champion track cyclist Victoria Pendleton. The facility is claimed to be DPD’s most environmentally sustainable yet. The company has also launched the depot’s green travel plan, which includes 10 DPD-branded bicycles that will be available for staff to use when traveling to and from the depot. The travel plan aims to reduce local congestion and the number of single-occupancy car journeys.

The 60,000ft2 hub at the town’s Symmetry Park is DPD’s first ‘net zero carbon in construction’ building, as regulated by the UK Green Building Council (UKGBC). The firm will relocate its existing staff from the current DPD operation in Bicester. Once fully operational, the distribution center could create up to 250 new jobs.
