London’s DVS – help us to get the clarity needed from TfL

We continue to make representations to Transport for London on the challenges operators have getting compliant with the new Progressive Safe System(PSS) which will be launched on 28 October 2024. HGVs of more than 12-tonne gross weight will be required to fit new safety equipment to operate in the capital.

However, following industry feedback that kit meeting the new requirement is giving

incorrect warnings, we have asked TfL to clarify elements of the PSS specifications.

Getting clarity from TfL for you

We'd like to thank members for giving feedback on the issues you have encountered so

far through the industry survey we promoted jointly with Logistics UK and AICES and the

webinar we held on 20February. This has helped us articulate the challenges you face

to TfL.

To assist our on-going conversations with TfL, we would be grateful for further specific

feedback such as:

• where, when and how problems such as false alarming have occurred;
• where you feel aspects of the specifications require clarity;
• questions you would like to ask TfL directly to help resolve issues.

Please email us at this address: [email protected] with this feedback.

Pease can you also indicate whether you are willing to speak directly to TfL about the issues you are facing.

We're moving quickly so would ask you to respond by 6pm on Friday 19 April.

Many thanks.
