This accessibility statement applies to https://test.roadhaulagesurveys.dft.gov.uk/.

This website is run by The Statistics, Road & Freight Team from The Department for Transport. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means you should be able to:

  • navigate most of the website using just a keyboard
  • navigate most of the website using speech recognition software

We’ve also made the website text as simple as possible to understand.

AbilityNet has advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability.
