New restrictions are in place

Officials will be monitoring two Nottinghamshire roads which HGVs have been travelling down rather than using the Gedling Access Road . Despite the introduction of a weight limit on Arnold Lane and Shearing Hill in Gedling, the area's MP says residents in the area have reported concerns about the number of HGVs using the routes.

Tom Randall, the Conservative MP for Gedling, posted on Monday about the concerns raised by some residents in regards to Arnold Lane and Shearing Hill. In particular, he said many had mentioned HGVs serving the British Car Auctions site at the Victoria Business Park in Netherfield.It's understood that complaints had been made about HGVs from several companies using the two Gedling routes but in regards to the BCA lorries, Mr Randall shared an update he had received from the company.

"These new restrictions are being entered onto our system, so going forward if one of our drivers goes through the restriction we will be informed so the driver can be advised on their error. Hopefully this will prevent any of BCA trucks entering the restriction in the future."
