ATS Euromaster and Michelin have been appointed by Redditch Borough Council as the supplier of tyres and associated services under a four-year framework agreement.

The contract covers the local authority’s mixed fleet of 150 vehicles, which ranges from vans and agricultural equipment to refuse collection vehicles and road sweepers, as part of a pan-government tyre sourcing initiative established in 2007 via the Office of Government Commerce (OGC).

Junior Braithwaite, Redditch Borough Council’s fleet manager, said: “Our fleet requires a complete range of specialist commercial vehicle and agricultural tyres which we can now purchase and have fitted whilst benefiting from the combined buying power of the OGC.”
