Volo-X Joins Together for Safer Roads to Advance Global Fleet Safety with Sustainable, Safety-Focused, Logistics Solutions
Paul Boardman, Volo-X Founder and Chairman, Joins TSR’s Board
Will Launch a New ‘Quad of the Future’ Initiative
New York, NY (February 6, 2025) — Together for Safer Roads (TSR), a leading non-governmental organization dedicated to advancing road safety through cross-sector collaboration and technological innovation, proudly announces the addition of Volo-X as its newest member and welcomes Volo-X Founder and Chairman, Paul Boardman, to its Board of Directors.
“We are thrilled to welcome Volo-X to our coalition of fleet industry leaders and innovators, and to also welcome their Founder and Chairman, Paul Boardman, to Together for Safer Roads’ board of directors.” said Peter Goldwasser, TSR’s Executive Director. “Under Paul’s leadership, Volo-X is delivering solutions to resolve key logistical challenges in urban centers that are focused on safety, environmental sustainability and affordability.”
“Volo-X further expands the wide scope of TSR’s influence in the global effort for safer roads, and we are proud to welcome them as a new member,” added Andres Peñate, Together for Safer Roads Board Chair and Global VP Corporate Affairs at Anheuser-Busch InBev.
“It‘s exciting to have the opportunity to collaborate with the Together for Safer Roads community, as a member organization and on TSR’s board, to ensure more efficient, safer solutions for fleet operators and the communities they serve,” said Volo-X’s Chairman and Founder Paul Boardman. “As a global boutique technology company, we serve as a ‘bridge to the future’ for sustainable logistics, a perfect complement to TSR’s work on the future of fleet safety.”
The intersection of last-mile delivery efficiency and road safety is an area of concern that TSR continues to address. Building off its successful Truck of the Future Initiative, TSR will be working with its members on exploring how to best expand the definition of a 21st century “delivery truck,” looking at the impact of utilizing the Volo-Coaster’s Electric Transport (Quad) in the context of supporting new types of safe, flexible and ultimately scalable last-mile delivery modalities in urban environments.
Peter Goldwasser explained, “There is no question that a safer, more efficient city is dependent on both improving existing systems and innovating new ones designed for the challenges of an urban environment and last-mile delivery. This is where Volo-X’s ‘Quad of the Future’ comes in.”
“Many of the delivery techniques used today in E-commerce’s last mile are largely the same as they were 100 years ago. Our work with TSR on Quad of the Future has tremendous potential to enhance the safety and sustainability of our cities, enable the success of companies large and small that drive our economy forward, and advance urban delivery options at scale,” Paul Boardman concluded.
The Quad of the Future Initiative will be announced with more detail later in 2025.
