Hi Vis Jackets

Descriptions

Roads Policing Unit require a better standard of hi visibility and fully waterproof coat to ensure officers remain safe when attending collision scenes, which are often in rural locations and can be in all weathers. Most of the work is in rural areas, and officers can expect to be out in inclement weather for 5 hours as a minimum (as demonstrated during the last cold spell of weather).Gloucester Police source an EN471 Hi Vis compliant jacket from Arktis Endurance textiles for use by their road traffic officers. This waterproof jacket has been designed by the supplier for roads policing, is fully waterproof and provides extra protection to the head/ neck during the extremities of adverse weather. This garment is also fully compliant with hi-visibility regulations, particularly on major routes that require the maximum compliance from a hi – visibility jacket. This jacket is also of a harder wearing material, which will then be more cost efficient when the need arises for replacement.
