Lord Lansley – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Transport

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Lansley on 2016-02-03.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government when they intend to make permanent the restriction on HGVs overtaking between Junctions 9 and 10 of the M11, following the trial.

Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

There are currently no restrictions on HGVs overtaking between Junctions 9 and 10 of the M11 and there are no plans to introduce restrictions. A permanent overtaking restriction on the uphill sections of the M11 between Junctions 8 and 9 is planned to be implemented in late 2016/17 subject to the completion of statutory processes and the availability of funding.
