More names achieve Van Excellence accreditation

Civil engineering businesses Morrison Utilities and Amey have successfully achieved accreditation under the FTA's Van Excellence scheme.
They join 25 other operators which have successfully demonstrated that their fleet management and compliance systems can meet the standards of the Code of Van Excellence, the voluntary code of practice for van fleet operators. Vehicle and fleet management service provider LeasePlan has also joined Van Excellence, as a recognised partner of the scheme. Partners promote the Code of Van Excellence amongst their customers and encourage its standards to be adopted and followed throughout the light commercial vehicle sector. Mark Cartwright, the Freight Transport Association's head of vans and light commercial vehicles says: "These major developments signal continued strong support and interest in the goals and mission of Van Excellence as a way of promoting high standards of operation in the van sector. "The challenging operating conditions in the utilities sector have not deterred nor prevented Morrison Utilities and Amey from achieving the standards of operators in other sectors."
