Publisher's Synopsis
Perfect for professional drivers to easily use whilst on the road and when planning routes, this large format A3 road atlas has a clear 3 miles to 1 inch scale. Network Rail's #wiseupsizeup campaign with information on how to prevent bridge strikes. Content: Fully updated for 2024, the atlas includes truck and freight ferry routes and 23 port plans and clear route planner map, quick reference distance chart and an explanatory list of restricted motorway junctions. Additionally there is a 12-page section of London street mapping with height, width and weight restrictions clearly marked, as well as large scale district maps of London, Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester and Tyne & Wear. Information of particular importance to truck drivers is emphasised on the mapping which includes over 3,600 bridge heights, with the most frequently struck rail bridges highlighted. Roads less than 4 metres wide are distinguished, as well as road tunnels, toll roads, service areas, steep gradients, level crossings and low emission zones. A special feature, in conjunction with Network Rail's campaign, provides useful information on prevention of bridge strikes - an essential read for all truck drivers and other professionals in the haulage industry.
