The timings, temporary road closures and parking restrictions that will be in place during the Olympic and Paralympic Games have been revealed.
With road events in London scheduled to take place on seven of the 16 days of the Olympic Games and one day of the Paralympic Games, fleet operators will need to plan ahead to ensure service levels are maintained.
It comes as Transport for London (TfL) starts contacting residents and businesses along the road cycling, triathlon, marathon and race walking events routes.
TfL is also working with MT publisher Road Transport Media to bring fleet operators the Summer Freight Planning Conference at Wembley Stadium on 22 March. Places for this must attend one-day event that will offer practical advice on delivering during the Games are filling up fast.
Further information on the Games themselves - London and nationally - can be found at the getaheadofthegames website. There are also maps of each of the road event routes available on the TfL website.
