OPERATORS should be aware that the new regulations for the use of longer semi-trailers (LST) come into play on 29 February, says the RHA.
“We have long advocated for firms to be able use LSTs on UK roads and we are pleased that trials have been successful.
However, now that the trials are ending, operators have raised concerns over the requirements to provide a route plan and risk assessment for LST routes, driving up costs and making them less efficient.”
