20 p.; fig.; tab. The report gives results of computer assessment, in Kingston upon Hull. Four different gross weight limits and eight different control areas have been considered. Hull lacks the environmentally insensitive roads necessary for such controls to be effective. As a resul, the controls would not appreciably reduce the total exposure of people to goods vehicle nuisance; their main effect would be to transfer nuisance from one area to another. Of the 'no entry except for access' control considered, only those on a local control area away from the town centre gave small environmental gains at low cost, but the diverted traffic might cause a traffic congestion problem at a point on the main route by passing the control area. 'No entry' controls, without the exception for access, would, at best, produce marginal environmental improvments, and, for similar environmental benefits, would be more expensive than 'no entry except for access' controls. This confirms a similar conclusion of the earlier Swindon study FREIGHT TRANSPORT 625.7(047.31) Perpustakaan Direktorat Bina Teknik Jalan dan Jembatan Direktorat Jenderal Bina Marga - Kementerian Pekerjaan Umum (NPP: 3273244A00000001) 625.7(047.31) Bar h 0000001558 My Library 625.7(047.31) Bar h 0000008041 My Library 625.7(047.31) Bar h 1539 machine generated
