Blackpool benefits from electric vehicle

The vehicle replaces an older model that Blackpool Council previously had for a number of years and complements the fleet of five Bradshaw supplied vehicles. The electric vehicle is said to allow easy access to areas more difficult to get to, and reduce the requirement of refuse collection vehicles and associated driving licenses for employees. 

The pedestrian controlled PFB1500, with a payload of 1,500kg and a tow load of 2,000kg, has a steel mesh cage body with half drop down hinged sides, double rear doors and removable aluminium floor tray. Various options and chassis lengths are available.  

Blackpool Council deliver around 150 services to approximately 142,000 Blackpool residents every single day and continue to work towards some big projects that will improve Blackpool.
