Freight Transport Association, Gerry Osborne-Bartrarn, is demanding that much more Government money should be spent on research into spray suppression on motorways. "Industry has spent and is continuing to spend vast quantities of money on fitting spray suppression devices to vehicles," said OsborneBartram. "They are expensive, vulnerable and at best of limited efficiency. For years the Department of Transport has been experimenting with permeable road surfaces which cut spray for all vehicles. Success here is important to road safety. Why is this work taking so long?"
