The UK LGV Driver Supply Crisis
LGV Driver Shortage to worsen over the next 18 months
In our Driver Require Ltd report on “The Impact of COVID-19 - A Roadmap for Recovery in the UK Haulage Sector”, released in early July, we made the bold statement that we expect there will no longer be an LGV driver shortage in the UK; at least not until we are fully out of the post-COVID-19 recession, which could be more than 3 years away. We now realise that the LGV driver shortage will remain unresolved and is likely to worsen, at least in the short term.
We believe that the combination of factors will cause demand to continue to exceed supply and that the current perceived LGV driver shortage will continue through to the end of 2020, getting more pronounced through the Christmas peak period.
