travel in April.

year-on-year.

Heavy goods vehicle traffic is benefiting from the improved economic
environment, an upturn that was confirmed in the first half when traffic
increased by 5.8% year-on-year.

Nonetheless, HGV traffic still trailed by 12% compared with levels in the first
half of 2008.
