• A plan to build a major truckstop on the Al near Dishforth in North Yorkshire is being opposed by a property developer.
Truckhaven has submitted plans for a 375-space truckstop near the A1/A168. But rival firm Strait Properties is pressing for a service station with room for 159 cars, 86 trucks and 15 coaches to the west of the Al.
The Freight Transport Association supports the idea of a site dedicated to truck drivers. "Parking spaces need to be specially designed for lorry drivers — if lorries and private cars are mixed there will be conflict," warns Fred Anderton, FTA assistant regional secretary for the North-East.
