Welcome to the London Lorry Control Scheme

We provide information for truck drivers, hauliers, logistics and transport managers.


The Lorry Control Scheme takes the form of controls on the movement of any heavy goods vehicles over 18 tonnes maximum gross weight at night and at weekends.

The restrictions are in place on the use of heavy goods vehicles to help minimise noise pollution in residential areas during unsocial hours through restricted use of these roads.
