It's not LCCs standards that they need to conform to but the industry standard which LCC has supported as well as TfL. It'a programme called CLOCS http://www.clocs.org.uk/workstream-one/
All vehicle companies working for crossrail (Like Gordon's) should be part of this scheme

thx for posting @skydancer,
was yet to know about CLOCS (Construction Logistics and Cyclist Safety),
Between 2008 and 2013, 55 per cent of cyclist fatalities in London
involved a heavy goods vehicle. A disproportionate number of these
were construction vehicles. In 2012 Transport for London commissioned
an independent review of the construction sector’s transport
activities to understand the causes of these collisions and how they
might be prevented.The resulting ‘Construction Logistics and Cyclist Safety' (CLOCS)
report was published in February 2013 by Transport Research
Laboratory. The report found that:Blind spots on construction vehicles could be larger than general
haulage vehicles Road safety was not considered in same way as health
and safety on-site There was little understanding of the impact of
construction activity on road safety There was no common standard for
the industry to work to in order to manage work related road safety In
response, the construction logistics industry demonstrated its
commitment to change and identified actions under three work streams
to improve road safety. CLOCS brings together the construction
logistics industry to revolutionise the management of work related
road risk and embed a road safety culture across the industry as the
UK's population and economy grows.

encouraging,
as long as this equipment meets with the LCC standards ..
