Haulage Exchange Members Welcome Government Plan to Display Fuel Price Signs on Motorway Service Areas

The UK government’s recent plans to have fuel prices displayed in plain view on signs along motorway service areas are met positively by hauliers and other related organisations. Many sectors, including those business entities that regularly exchange haulage loads through such organisations as Haulage Exchange, welcome the plan as it is believed to not only improve the management of fuel prices, but may also drive the prices down. At the centre of the plan is the UK Prime Minister’s belief that transparency in this area—achieved by always informing the public of the latest fuel prices near points of sale—may actually give motorists better deals.
