Require local authorities in England to permit delivery drivers to use bus lanes

Closed 48 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the Government to require local authorities in England to allow delivery drivers, using vehicles that clearly show the company they are driving for, to use bus lanes, so they can get places quicker and people get deliveries more quickly.
I think delivery drivers in company logo vehicles should be allowed to use bus lanes to get to drops quicker due to the amount of work they have on. Often drivers are stacked in traffic and people then sometimes don't get their delivers in time because drivers run out of hours.
