An environmental weight limit will not be imposed on A or B classified roads, but residents may request a weight restriction for their road and this will be fully assessed in accordance with the council approved method.

The assessment process considers:

• The number of HGV's actually using the road
• The 5 year personal injury accident statistics
• The physical characteristics of the road
• Frontage usage of the road
• Pedestrian usage

To report abuse of any imposed weight restrictions please contact West Midlands Police.
