TWO THOUSAND employees are helping companies across South Yorkshire to lower fuel costs, improve road safety and reduce the environmental impact of fleet vehicles after taking part in our government-backed business driving scheme.

Eco-Business Driving offers free expert advice, training, and Health and Safety legislation guidance, and recently celebrated a key milestone as the 2,000th driver, from Rotherham-based Roy Hatfield Limited completed the programme. Sean Brammah, Supervisor from Roy Hatfield Limited, said: -It's an honour to be the 2,000th member to complete the training. I've always considered myself to be a safe driver but the initiative has opened my eyes on how to improve safety, plan ahead as well as reduce my fuel consumption. -We take a proactive approach to the Health and Safety of our workforce and by taking part in the Eco-Business Driving scheme our company has benefitted by reducing costs, and our staff have become more economically aware and safer drivers. Eco-Business Driving forms part of South Yorkshire's Local Sustainable Transport Fund initiative, and is delivered locally by Inmotion!, together with Sheffield City Council's Road Safety Team and eDriving Solutions Ltd.
