Longer semi-trailers: FTA negotiates additional two weeks for industry to provide evidence of benefits

FTA has negotiated an extension of two weeks for members to provide evidence of efficiency benefits linked to longer semi-trailers to consultants MDS Transmodal. MDS has been appointed by the Department for Transport (DfT) to gather evidence from industry to inform an assessment of the benefits of extending longer semi-trailers by up to two metres. So far the level of response has been relatively weak. The extension is intended to give members more time to put operational data together.

The survey form can be downloaded here.

Completed forms should be sent to Mike Hatfield at MDS Transmodal: mike.hatfield@mdst.co.uk.
