Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

HEAVY GOODS traffic is set to grow even faster over the next 30 years than the Government had reckoned only four years ago.

According to the latest national road traffic forecasts, the overall growth in lorry traffic is now expected to be up to five per cent higher in 2015 than the 1980 forecast had estimated, although this will depend on the rate of growth in the economy.

However, the rate of increase in bigger lorries — of four or more axles — is expected to be lower than previously thought, while instead of a decline in smaller lorries traffic is expected possibly to increase.
