T&K Gallagher Ltd has recently taken delivery of 10 new 61-plate Iveco Daily Vans, which have been kitted out specifically for the repair and maintenance works on the United Utilities/Enterprise Network Alliance contract.
The new arrivals came fully branded in the United Utilities and Enterprise branding ready to go! Robert Loughnane (Network Alliance Manager) said “these vehicles are a big commitment to the contract. The branding and the way the vans look will work towards fully meeting the expectations of both the Alliance and also our customers who the teams are in contact with on a daily basis. The vehicles look professional and the feedback from the teams has already been very positive!”
The new vehicles boast a 3.0litre Euro 4 engine and offer significantly more payload and torque than the previous vehicles. They are also speed limited to 56mph! Inside the vehicles the body has been kitted out with steel racking to store all fittings off the floor to ensure that water hygiene is maintained and there is a separate storage area for fuels. In the rear of the vehicle there is a suspended floor to allow pipework, tools and equipment to be stored. The vehicles offer significantly more space in the back of the vehicle for the storage of signing, lighting and guarding.
Robin Walker (T&K Gallagher Ltd Operations Manager) said “we are really pleased with these vehicles – they have been fully specified by ourselves and they provide our teams with the vehicle they need to do their jobs properly. The extra space will mean that they can be loaded up to do their jobs more efficiently and we hope to see an improvement in production as a result”.
The vehicles offer additional safety features as well, including safety steps, fixed beacons and additional illumination at the rear of the vehicle for use on site in hours of darkness. These additional features are added as a commitment to compliance in our business. Tom Gallagher (T&K Gallagher Ltd Managing Director) said “as a business we are completely focused on offering our clients a first class professional service and the arrival of these new vehicles means that our teams are even better equipped to do their jobs. We are very proud that we are able to represent our clients in vehicles that look the part and enable us to offer a more effective and efficient service”.
