ULEZ…
Pavement parking.
HGV levy payment.
I’m confident this is covered in greater depth somewhere other than the link I’ve posted.
I wonder what would happen if UK haulage all turned round and told them to shove their levy where the sun don’t shine.
The UK HGV levy is incorporated into the VED, so the reintroduction of the levy only applies to foreign vehicles
The environmental NGO’s are calling for higher levy fees for freight transport. The Green Alliance, Transport and Environment, Transport Action Network and Possible are together calling for the Government to go further in embedding the polluter pays principle into UK freight operations.
They suggest a change from the currant day based levy to distant based charges. commercialfleet.org/news/tr … s-ambition

No you are wrong.
,.I think it is very kind of the Government to give this concession to the haulage industry to help them out and help them ease the driver shortage. Good on them I say.
joking btw it’s all pr ■■■■■■■■ but no doubt many will swallow it.

Rob you forgot the kind relaxation of driving hours as well which help with the drivers shortage and let’s lot forget the cabotage relaxations which have helped backload rates no end

Yep there are no limits on the generosity of the Govt toward us.
Pavement paring ban appears to be only in Scotland?

Pavement parking.
I was under the impression HGVs were already banned from parking on pavements. Wasn’t there a thread about it/something related recently where someone said it’s due to weight and underground services?

Yeah I did a few months ago. I know why people do it to allow more highway room, but sadly it causes long term damage.
