The latest Quarterly Transport Activity Survey from the Freight Transport Association (FTA) reveals that congestion on UK roads is at the worst it has been for over 10 years. The results from the survey of over 100 logistics operators are seen as an indication of the impact of the increase in domestic road freight activity levels, and further demonstrate the rate of decline in the reliability of the UK motorway network.
The survey showed a 55% deterioration in the reliability of the UK road network, taking it to the lowest level since 2002, due to the increase in traffic levels in the run up to Christmas.
