City of York Council has joined forces with Unipart Rail to become the first local authority in the UK to trial a new fuel additive, DiesoLiFT, which is set to save the council up to £50,000 a year and significantly reduce toxic emissions from the council’s vehicles.
The ground-breaking scheme is being trialled on a range of vehicle types across its fleet, at no incremental cost to the council, which on average uses around 800,000 litres of diesel per annum.
Unipart Rail has selected the council for its pilot scheme which it anticipates will be rolled out across the country with other commercial vehicle operators.
