4.6 Lorry Controls
•
4.6.1 Approval of local routes to be used by
construction lorries will be sought in accordance
with the requirements of any Act and associated
procedures resulting from the Act ( refer to
Schedule 7 of the Act).
•
4.6.2 As far as reasonably practicable, there will
be no parking of lorries on the highway in the

Transport Planning and Management
Deliveries to worksites restricted to ‘shoulder hours’ each side of core
working hours. This restricts vehicle movements therefore to 07:00hrs to
19:00hrs weekdays and 07:00hrs to 14:00hrs on Saturdays;
Transportation, storage and removal of excavated material by conveyor,
barge and rail wherever practical;
Regular traffic liaison with highway authorities, Police, bus operators and
emergency services;
Application of the materials management hierarchy:
Road Transport Specific
No engines running whilst awaiting loading or off loading;
Specified and approved lorry routes, holding areas and route signage;
A means of monitoring lorry use and those routes prohibited from use;
Wheel washing;
Correct loading and sheeting of vehicles;
A control system for the despatch of vehicles carrying excavated
materials, demolition materials and other waste materials;
Crossrail insignia on vehicles;
Exhaust silencers;
Noise control features on reversing alarms;
Low emission vehicles;
Ultra low sulphur fuels.;
Vehicles free from oil/ fuel leaks.
Undertakings & Assurances
Example General
Commitment 577 – Construction Traffic & Cycles
•
The Nominated Undertaker will provide site

Commitment 0187– Schools - lorry routeing Tower
Hamlets
•
The Promoter undertakes that, where a proposed
Crossrail lorry route passes a school that is not
currently subject to heavy goods traffic, he will
restrict the hours during which Crossrail
construction traffic will operate and/or introduce
appropriate traffic management measures to be
agreed with the Council. These measures to
include a 30 minute prohibition of Crossrail
construction traffic when school pupils are arriving
at school and a 30 minute prohibition when pupils
are leaving. The exact hours will be agreed on a
case by case basis with each school. The
Promoter will work with the Council to develop a
strategy for lorry routes that takes into account the
nearby sensitive uses. The Promoter will consult
on the day to day management of lorry holding
sites.

Sustainable Transport
• Contractors must produce a Sustainable Transport
Plan, prioritising the use of rail & water (where
practicable)
• Contractors must comply with Crossrail’s sustainability
measures
• Minimise part loads, maximise consolidation
• Support the principles of the London Freight Plan

Lorry Route Signage
Vehicle Identification
Contractor must ensure that all
hauliers are given and display the
agreed Crossrail identifying sign in
the cabs of all their vehicles.
Traffic Co-ordination Centre (TCC)
• To co-ordinate Crossrail traffic across central London
contracts
• To manage deliveries via the Vehicle Movement
Booking System (VMBS)
• Communication with external parties such as Police,
TfL, local authorities etc, to obtain information on
factors which could affect vehicle movements
Traffic Co-ordination
Vehicle Movement Booking System
• Centralised system used by Contractors and
the TCC
• Used to book future vehicle movements for
each worksite
• Identify individual vehicles and track
compliance with required vehicle standards;
• Monitor and report actual vehicle movements

the threat of terrorism in London
• Enable Crossrail to demonstrate best practice in construction
road safety
LDT - Scope – Entire Supply Chain
Frequent Drivers
> 5 round trips to a Crossrail
Worksite In a 12 month period
Infrequent Drivers
< 5 round trips to a Crossrail
Worksite In a 12 month period
Driver Induction Training
