• Bedwas is expanding its range of security vehicle bodywork designed for police and prison applications, with the launch of three new bodies at the National Police Vehicle Fleet Managers Conference in Devizes next month.
The new Challenger 14 prison van has been designed for transporting up to 14 prisoners with a minimal number of staff. The vehicle has 14 secure cells, and is designed to carry two crew, all within the vehicle's plated weight of 7,490kg. Bedwas has mounted Challenger 14 on Leyland Dal's Road runner chassis cab.
Cooperation between Bedwas and Scotland Yard has led to the development of the second new Bedwas design, the modular PSU vehicle. A modular interior design provides the Police with a choice of rapid intervention vehicles in one truck.
The PSU system is suitable for 2,5 to 4.5 tonnes panel vans.
The third new body for police and prison applications is an individual prison cell module, designed to be fitted into any panel or box van.
