Keen to be green with regional charging machines

Gloucestershire Constabulary has joined a number of forces across the South West by allowing colleagues to use electric vehicle charging points at a number of police buildings.

The agreement sees officers from Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Avon and Somerset, Dorset, and Devon and Cornwall able to use any police-owned electric car charging point in the region without charge, when travelling on police duty.

Officers and staff travelling to neighbouring counties for court cases, meetings and training can legitimately use one of the Force’s electric vehicles, rather than a car which runs on diesel or petrol helping to save forces money in fuel costs and reducing carbon footprints.
