Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

DENBY TRANSPORT is preparing to trial its 25.25m Eco-Link in the Netherlands next month and says it is willing to help fellow operators in similar trials.

MD Peter Denby says that it already has two drivers trained to drive the Eco-Link in Holland, but is waiting for the appropriate traffic flows to start the trials.

“We are pretty much all set to go,” Denby says. “Holland is not one of our core countries though, if it was France or Belgium it would be a dif ferent story.” His father Dick Denby says that any haulier looking to conduct a similar trial in the Netherlands can approach the company for guidance with “a) how to get the driver through the test” and “b) how to get the lorry through the test”.

Meanwhile, turnover rose 16% at Denby Transport in the 12 months ended 30 April, as the haulier fin ished the year with revenue of £8.2m (2011: £7m). Pre-tax profit was also up, to £526,923 from £390,989.

Peter adds: “Obviously, we are pleased with the results. We have had a good year.”
