well as the subject states a rate reduction to all topblock owner drivers which will be phased in august and september,a total reduction of 5.0% ,a rate reduction of 5.1% for “outside hauliers” is already in force.on the “up-side”,we have been advised by tarmac that we will now be able to source our own backloads…this will no doubt have many strings attached 
My sympathies, I expect it will come to the quarry boys too sooner rather than later I would imagine.
Mind you 5.1% of not a lot is even less!
