FORS has produced a free-to-download FORS Professional Anti-Idling and Congestion-Cutting toolkit for members.

The toolkit includes a separate driver guide, posters and a toolbox talk, offering practical advice to help FORS operators reduce engine idling and minimise congestion.

The manager toolkit, which is aimed at HGV, van and PCV operators, provides advice on procuring different types of technology and developing campaigns, as well as introducing an anti-idling and congestion-cutting policy and briefings for drivers.

The driver guide addresses some common misconceptions through a series of myth busters, and offers useful top tips on vehicle fitness, routing and planning, reducing idling, and fuel saving.

John Hix, FORS director, said, “We are always looking to give FORS members the guidance and support they need to get the most from their fleet.

“With many operators looking at ways of reducing their fleet’s emissions and saving on fuel costs, the FORS Professional Anti-Idling and Congestion-Cutting toolkit will prove a valuable resource”.
