    Government on the right road to cutting emissions with longer lorries, say Aycliffe haulage leaders

    The boss of a Newton Aycliffe haulage company, which successfully trialled the use of longer lorries, has welcomed the government’s decision to allow them to become standard on the UK’s roads.

    Matthew Stiller, managing director of Aycliffe-based Stiller Warehousing and Distribution, says the move will benefit both business and the environment with fewer journeys now needed to transport the same amount of goods.

    And Stiller has already committed to the changing landscape with more than a dozen of the long lorries already on the road and more to come.
