Why we chose to get FORS Bronze accreditation
There were a few reasons for us gaining this FORS Bronze accreditation. Firstly we wanted to show that we are a professional haulage operator which adheres to high standards, plus we wanted to show our commitment to safe working procedures by following best practice and finally this accreditation makes us fully compliant to deliver our plant hire for HS2 sites and within Central London and within large city zones.
The Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) accreditation improves:
- Improve road safety
- Maintain best practice from our drivers
- Enhance fuel efficiency
- Reduce fuel emissions
