The goal of the Van Best Practice programme is to enhance the operating efficiency within the van industry, through the implementation of best practice guidelines on van details, van operation, and efficient van driving procedures. It is hoped that the programme will play a big part in lowering CO2 emissions from vans, and in lowering the amount of automobile accidents that involve vans.
The Best Van Practice programme will be implemented using a variety of channels that include a high profile release, trade and consumer events, and specially aimed crusades and endorsements. There will also be a Van Best Practice website overseen by AEA, as well as research by AEA to help better understand the van sector.
AEA was given the contract after they completed a pilot study to discover the main factors that affect the operation of a van fleet on our highways. The Best Van Practice programme is scheduled to be put into effect over a span of 3 years, is valued at £1.8m, and will be funded by the Department of Transport.
AEA also has a number of driver training plans under the Safe And Fuel Efficient Driving programme; the Van Best Practice will extend the reach of the Safe And Fuel Efficiency Driving programme but will not contain formal training.
