You can recognise our escort vehicles by their distinctive yellow and green markings, red and blue flashing lights and warning signs. Our Transport Safety officers were distinctive hi-viz clothing and hand-held signalling torches.
Escort vehicles will be directing traffic ahead of, and behind the convoy. Transport Safety officers will sometimes need to leave their vehicles. This may be to help with the convoy or to give instruction to other drivers. This could include passing the convoy where it is safe to so do. Please be patient and respectful when following their instructions. It is an offence to disobey a direction of a Transport Safety officer.
