You asked
Follow-up from TfL Ref: 2092-2223. Thank you for your quick reply to my FoI request.
I know that loading bays on the TLRN are generally accessible to the public under set rules – eg visits do not exceed 20 minutes. My FoI request seeks exceptions.
Please confirm you are saying: there are no bays on the TLRN designated only for use by local (nearby) businesses on an ongoing basis?
