I will answer the Chairman's question first. The motorways chosen were the ones where there appeared to be the most diversion. For example, there is little diversion on the M50. The Westlink bridge is in my constituency, but huge numbers of trucks do not appear to avoid it. We tried to pick the motorways truckers divert from.
