CAMPAIGN Against the Lorry Menace wants hauliers to pay £30 a day to bring heavy lorries into London, and has told Armitage that it wants road tax to be increased.
It suggests that lorries should have their road tax raised by between £3000 and £5000 per year, as it claims that they are being subsidised through rates and general taxation.
CALM wants Britain to reject higher weight limits, and proposes six monthly vehicle inspections together with town and city-wide night bans on vehicles over 16 tons gvw.
