Downside of this strategy is now you have another variable delivery cost that will be passed onto all consumers in the area.

If the person receiving the delivery has to bear the delivery cost, instead of transferring it onto bikers, drivers, bus riders in the form of obstructed streets, I would call that an upside.
That sounds like a plus. The cost of using the infrastructure should be passed on to the end users.
