Trial end to embargo

In the UK the Staffordshire Police force has confirmed that will be removing embargo times on all Staffordshire’s roads for Category A cranes. This will initially be done for a three month trial period, starting on the first of November 2024.

Public complaints, incidents and traffic disruption will be monitored throughout the period. If there are no notable negative effects during the trial, Staffordshire Police will look to remove embargo times permanently for all Category A cranes.

An email to the abnormal loads site at Staffordshire police [email protected] will receive an automated acknowledgement email, with details of the trial period.

The move follows a similar, but more restricted trial in Gwent which should have ended last week See Embargo trial suspension
