An LHV, a longer heavier goods vehicle - longer and heavier than the regular ones -, can only use the secondary road network when the local road authority has granted permission to do so. To support the road authorities, CROW Information and Technology Platform for Infrastructure, Traffic, Transport and Public space is preparing a publication containing the criteria which road sections and intersections must meet before permission can be granted. During the preparation several road safety questions came up. CROW turned to SWOV for the answers, and they are given in this report.
