Drivers complete Safe Urban Driver course

FORS fleet operator recognition schemeAll of our drivers have recently completed the FORS Safe Urban Driving Course. This involves drivers swapping places with Cyclists for 3 hours to give them a better understanding of the problems that cyclists have with HGV’s. This hopefully reduces the chances of incidents involving cyclists and HGV’s. Luckily a number of our staff are already regular cyclists. This is also an important part of planned progression to FORS Silver.

New operating centre offers many benefits

Due to the Burden Transport trucks parked at new operating centreexpansion of our vehicle fleet, we have recently relocated to a new operating centre. Located ideally on the side of the A31 at St Leonards, which is Dorset’s main truck road for going either north or east. The site which has security cameras, is fully fenced and has 24hrs security. It also offers us the option of expanding to customers needs.
