	Cambridgeshire Waste Awareness Vehicle (Oct, 2009)
	Cambridgeshire county council waste awareness section tendered for a copy of their existing Vehicle built by Keillor Coachbuilders in early 2008. We won this contract and progressed the build program by collecting the existing schools library base vehicle from the customer in the south of England and transporting it up to our facility in Arbroath, Scotland. Internally the vehicle was stripped of all its existing furniture and all the external windows were closed off and made good. A complete new aluminium framework was constructed then constructed to house seating, display boards and overhead lockers required internally. The interior then had a coat of dark blue paint to the customer’s specification prior to internal fit out. Fibre optic lights were one of the featured items within the roof void along with LED down lighters and large display boards along each side. The vehicle had to have a complete external respray to the corporate colours and to match their existing vehicle and Keillor worked closely with the client to achieve the desired affect.

	This vehicle has been built to a very detailed design brief prepared by Essex County Council. The internal modular system of design allows complete flexibility. With a multi battery pack and solar roof panels topping up the power supply, the vehicle can operate for long periods without recharging back at base. Many recycled materials have been used in the construction of this vehicle, which are well displayed with feature lighting throughout.
		These photographs show glass panelled display boards and seat units. These can be removed and work stations fitted to provide a learning centre.
	Using the display boards fitted with prepared projects in combination with the overhead projector, an information centre is created giving a visual presentation. The public entrance, with it's wheelchair access and fully adjustable step heights, gives access to all members of the public. The rear door feature with fully automatic external staircase provides a walk through facility for weekend shows and special events.

		Aberdeen Waste Awareness Vehicle This super mobile for Aberdeenshire Council is spearheading the waste awareness and recycling campaign in the North East of Scotland. Based on a Volvo B12B single deck chassis with the Plaxton body shell having a gross vehicle weight of 18 tonnes. We have recreated the Plaxton Paragon body shape with an increased overall vehicle height of 4.5m. The main feature of extending side pods and internal rising floor gives a vehicle of almost double the internal floor area. The design team at Keillor's have been able to achieve this using hydraulic pistons powered from electric hydraulic power packs with setup time of under three minutes. The internal design incorporates ten hidden IT workstations built into sliding pod units with LAN and racking computer system at front of the coach. A large plasma display is provided for presentations and promotional work. This vehicle will be used in a number of different ways and as a lecture theatre that can host up to one hundred people. The external livery has been much admired and was prepared by our graphics team working with Aberdeenshire Council.
