8. The Order on the maximum width, length, height, weight and axle load of vehicles sets the framework for vehicle dimensions and implements Council Directive 96/53/EC of 25 July 1996 establishing for certain road vehicles circulating within the EU the maximum authorised dimensions in national and international traffic and the maximum authorised weight in international traffic.

The draft order aims to ease a number of conditions covered by the order.

The draft order allows a maximum height for buses, lorries, tractors and motor equipment and their trailers of 4.20 m. Furthermore, the maximum permissible laden weight for vehicle combinations with seven or more axles is increased from 56 tonnes to 58 tonnes.

The police and military are also included in the provision on driving rescue boats. In addition, driving with an exceptionally wide snow plough is permitted on motorways.

9. The draft order eases a number of requirements concerning vehicle dimensions, which aims to expand the possible combinations of vehicle combinations for use in road transport. In addition, a number of minor amendments are made with the intention of allowing wide vehicles performing specific functions.
