7 Days to Go: DVS Phase 2 to Start in London on 28 October; With only one week until enforcement of the next phase of the Mayor of London\u2019s Direct Vision Standard begins, two groups which represent the majority of those operating road vehicles which will be affected \u2013 Logistics UK and the RHA (Road Haulage Association) \u2013 have issued an urgent reminder to businesses to check whether their vehicles require a permit in order to continue operating in the capital.<\/p>\n
From 28 October, those operating HGVs over 12 tonnes in London will need to demonstrate their vehicles have a three star safety rating, as specified by Transport for London, or fit the Progressive Safe System (PSS).\u00a0 Failure to meet either criteria will mean businesses risk receiving a \u00a3550 penalty charge notice and be unable to continue operating in the capital.<\/p>\n
If installation works for the PSS cannot be undertaken until after enforcement begins, operators can apply for more time to allow work to be booked, but this must be scheduled before the enforcement period begins on 28\u00a0 October 2024.\u00a0 No applications will be considered after 23.59 on 27 October.\u00a0 Full information about the scheme, including details of the technical specifications of the new standards, can be found on the\u00a0dedicated TfL website<\/a>. This page also contains contact information for operators to speak directly with the DVS enforcement team.\u00a0To apply for the DVS grace period (after 28\u00a0 October 2024 and before 4 May 2025) in cases where works are due to take place after enforcement begins please use the\u00a0DVS enquiry form<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201c<\/strong>With 216,000 vehicles in scope of the new DVS phase two regulations, operators need to ensure their vehicles are compliant ahead of the 28 October deadline,\u201d the organisations said. \u201cTFL has been clear from the outset that there will be leeway on the deadline for implementation, so it is up to operators to ensure they have installation works scheduled and, if necessary, have applied for the grace period in plenty of time, to ensure the sector can continue to deliver for London, its businesses and its consumers.\u201d<\/p>\n Transport & Logistics<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Driving The Industry Forward<\/span><\/p>\n\n The post 7 Days to Go: DVS Phase 2 to Start in London on 28 October<\/a> appeared first on Transport & Logistics Magazine<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 7 Days to Go: DVS Phase 2 to Start in London on 28 October; With only one week until enforcement of the next phase of the Mayor of London\u2019s Direct Vision Standard begins, two groups which represent the majority of those operating road vehicles which will be affected \u2013 Logistics UK and the RHA (Road Haulage Association) \u2013 have issued…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":1439,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[60],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8502","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-camcab"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/camcab.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8502"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/camcab.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/camcab.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/camcab.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8502"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/camcab.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8502\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/camcab.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1439"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/camcab.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8502"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/camcab.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8502"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/camcab.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8502"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
