  • increased number of routes in operation
  • assistants hired to support DPD drivers with on-foot parcel deliveries
  • early AM as well as late PM deliveries to be scheduled
  • increased number of customer service / hotline staff
  • coordination of events to carried out by DPD Olympic Specialist
  • daily updates for London
