Travelling through Portsmouth with vans over 3500kg

Probably another oppy stoopid question, but, our is just under 3,000kg, how will it affect us going to the P&O ferry terminal?
 
Bit i mis is what difference does it make if its a 3.5 or over, most use the same engine, its a big con.
It makes the same difference as when I hit seventy I couldn't drive my 3.7T Hymer, a paper exercise to down-plate to 3.5T and I can drive the same vehicle, the same engine, same pollutants but I can also now drive through this zone

AFAIK there is no longer a P&O terminal at Portsmouth. Ferries to the continent are operated by BF.

I believe thereis a "safe" route otherwise HGVs would have serious problems with imports and exports.

However, the IOW ferry terminal is inside the LEZ: that is what causes problems.

Hope sat nabs have an avoid lez route option , soon
Many years ago TT sent me a questionnaire asking me to comment on their latest software plans, which I thought were rubbish (so long ago I can't remember what they were). I suggested that they concentrate efforts on marking LEZs, even if just with a green border to alert drivers to potential problems. Algorithms to account for different engine sizes, weights, age of vehicle, in different countries etc could be rather complex. So far nothing has happened.
