Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps he is taking to improve roadside facilities for HGV drivers.
The Government recognises the need to ensure hauliers have access to appropriate services and facilities.
This week, the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced we will be investing £32.5 million in roadside facilities for HGV drivers on the road.
The Department will continue to engage with key stakeholders to encourage the development of more safe, secure, and high-quality lorry parking to improve driver welfare.
