The brief

In line with Government ULEV and the HM Coastguard (HMCG) Business Plan vehicle greening requirements the purchase of these vehicles is the continuation to satisfy this requirement.

MCA is replacing Operational vehicles utilised across HMCG to support Maritime and Coastal Operations and these vehicles are required to operate in a variety of environments and in all weather.

Coastguard and Maritime Officers are regularly required to switch between carrying personnel and equipment.

It has been identified that we need to improve the capability of vehicles used for this task.
