🚛🚛🚛 Operation Brock is back
One of the least popular elements of nodeal prep last time around.
This wasn't so much "shelved" last time as dismantled overnight due to being very unpopular and apparently leading to accidents

I'm somewhat confused by this.
Some form of traffic management will be needed whether we have a deal or not. Disruptions may occur even if we get a last-minute deal.

GVMS, the new traffic management app was supposed to sort that out - only the trucks with permission would be heading towards the port. Via the system, the authorities would have some level of control over the incoming traffic.

Then we were told it's likely that GVMS won't be ready for 01/21 although it will definitely be ready for the Irish Sea border (🤷♀️).
So, as a result, there will be a different system - a phone app - that perform a similar task

So, will we be using any of these systems to monitor traffic or are we now clear that this won't work? If only goods that have been pre-approved move towards the border why do we need Brock again?

Given the number of complaints last time around it's promising that the gov is trying to consult users/industry however to me it just raises more questions regarding the border operating model.
