POLICE ESCORTS
Every police force in the United Kingdom will have a different policy towards the necessity for a proper police escort. Such escorts will require at least two days notification prior to the date of movement, which does not include weekends or bank holidays. WWL ALS will liaise between the different police authorities and arrange a schedule of police escorts, designed to complement your loads.

STATUTORY MOVEMENT ORDERS
Loads exceeding 5.00 metres in width will require a VR1 movement order issued by the Highways Agency (formerly the Department of Transport in London).
