The information laid out in the tables below shows both Construction and Use (C&U) and Authorised Weight (AW) rules. Bogie Weights - AW (Authorised Weights).However, you cannot comply with a combination of the two regulations. The Authorised Weight Regulations run in parallel with C&U Regs, operators may choose to comply with either set of regulations. On 1 January 1999 directive 96/53 regarding weight limits was made law as part of the Road Vehicles (Authorised Weight) Regulations 1998 and was not included within the Construction and Use Regulations as a further amendment.
Directive 96/53 superseded the earlier directive and applied the weights standards to domestic transport. Directive 85/3 set common weights and dimensions standards for vehicles used in International transport.

The maximum permissible weights and dimensions of goods vehicles in the UK have traditionally been set out in the Road Vehicles ( Construction and Use) Regulations 1986.
