Update to 12-month action plan for lorry driver facilities

13 April 2026

In June 2025, Transport Focus published our 12-month, cross industry action plan aimed at driving improvements in the quality, availability and security of lorry driver facilities across England.

Building on the issues identified through our research and industry roundtable this plan sought to turn shared ambition into tangible progress.

Today (13 April 2026), we have published an update to the action plan to monitor the progress that has been made and to identify further opportunities for joint working, and ensure the next phase of activity continues to deliver meaningful improvements for lorry drivers.

The update also sets out where continued commitment and coordination will be required to sustain progress and achieve the outcomes drivers have consistently told us they need.

At the end of the 12 month period each lead organisation will be asked to provide a clear and detailed breakdown of the tangible outcomes achieved so far, the barriers they are working to overcome, and the timelines for completing any remaining actions. We look forward to sharing updates from each lead as this work progresses.

The updates below cover the period June 2025 to February 2026.
