Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to make more rest stop facilities, such as toilets and wash facilities, available for lorry drivers on the principal UK transport routes.
Lorry drivers play a vital role in keeping Britain moving, and the Government understands the need to ensure adequate facilities are available to them .
We have already amended planning guidelines to encourage futher development of facilities and are exploring options for what more could be done.
