Correos moves 400T in its third consecutive year as the official logistics operator of La Vuelta

The Vuelta reaches its decisive stages. There are already many kilometers left behind in the legs of the runners… and also in the entire caravan that accompanies this cycling event: team cars, mobile finishing infrastructure such as the podium, press room (375 m inflatable tent^twowhich is installed in the high mountains), signature control, anti-doping, kitchen truck…

Precisely of the displacement of all these mobile infrastructures is in charge Post for the third consecutive year. The official logistics operator of La Vuelta reached an agreement with Unipublic, the organizing company of the cycling event, to be responsible for transporting all the material in this 77th edition.

It represents a real logistical challenge, since more than 400 tons of material are being moved so that it can be played without any incident in the 42 venues (21 starts and 21 finishes). Also, in this edition, with the peculiarity that up to three stages have been held outside the Spanish geography: in the Netherlands. It is the fourth time in history that this has happened and the second since the country of tulips.

Correos makes available to Unipublic 30 tractor units and 19 platforms who are traveling 3,280 kilometers loaded with the necessary material to hold the race.

Correos’ commitment to La Vuelta is not limited to logistics, it is also the main collaborator of the race sponsoring the team classification. And who leads this ranking? It is done by the team that has the shortest time by adding the three best individual of each of its cyclists.

In this way, the best squad goes up to the signature control podium daily to collect their award before starting and, in addition, each one of its members wears a red bib with the Correos logo every day. This way they can be distinguished as the best formation within the platoon!

Finally, Correos is also present in the lap park of each stage. In a logistics operator’s tent there is a quiz with two roulette wheels and questions about Correos products with the aim of generating greater knowledge of the products, services and actions it carries out.
