Safety Vehicle Hire & Lease has taken delivery of six new Safestop90 equipped rigids for its traffic management vehicle fleet. The new additions are 4 MAN and 2 DAF 18 tonners.
The ‘Impact Protection Vehicles’ feature crash-cushions, or ‘attenuators’,and light arrow matrix boards and bodywork supplied by King Highway Products. Traffic cones and sign-boards are carried on the trucks which are used for lane closure operations on the UK motorway network and the trucks provide safety protection to roadworks operators.
Safety Vehicles General Manager, James Richmond, says "For us Safestop was a natural choice being the market leader - our through life costs are important as a rental fleet and the King package has proved to provide excellent through life value".
Safety Vehicle Hire & Lease Ltd. is a leading supplier to the traffic management industry. The company operates its vehicle fleet out of two locations, serving the A14 and Southwards from a Market Harborough site, and serving the M1 and the North from Ellistown just off junction22 of the M1.
