Use Cases.
Street
Cleaning
Street cleaning is essential for maintaining the cleanliness and aesthetics of urban areas. Fernhay’s eQuad is perfectly suited for this task, especially in pedestrian zones and narrow streets where larger vehicles struggle to operate. The eQuad’s quiet electric motor and compact design allow it to clean without disrupting the daily life of residents, all while reducing emissions and contributing to a greener city environment.
Traffic Sign Maintenance
Maintaining traffic signs is crucial for ensuring road safety and proper traffic flow. The eQuad enables maintenance teams to easily access hard-to-reach areas, such as tight corners and narrow streets, where traditional vehicles might not fit. With secure compartments for tools and equipment, the eQuad makes traffic sign maintenance more efficient and less intrusive to daily traffic.
Parks
Upkeeping
Parks are vital green spaces within cities, requiring regular upkeep to remain clean and inviting. The eQuad’s eco-friendly operation is ideal for parks maintenance, as it minimisas noise and air pollution, ensuring that these spaces remain pleasant for residents and wildlife alike. Its agility allows it to navigate through park paths, delivering tools and materials needed for maintenance tasks without causing damage to the environment.
Event
Support
Councils frequently host and support public events, requiring efficient and discreet logistics. The eQuad excels in event support, providing a nimble and quiet solution for transporting equipment, setting up venues, and managing waste during events. Its ability to access pedestrian areas and operate silently makes it a valuable asset for any public gathering, ensuring that events run smoothly without disturbing attendees.

Implementation.
Implementing Fernhay’s eQuad into council operations is straightforward and brings immediate benefits to urban management. Here’s how one city council has integrated eQuads into their daily tasks:
A city council integrates Fernhay eQuads into their street cleaning and maintenance fleet, focusing on pedestrian areas and narrow streets. The council recognised the need to reduce noise and pollution in these sensitive areas and chose the eQuad for its eco-friendly and compact design.
Consultation and Customisation
The council worked with Fernhay to customise the eQuads with compartments specifically designed for street cleaning tools, traffic sign maintenance equipment, and park upkeep supplies. This customisation ensures that the eQuads are fully equipped to handle a variety of tasks efficiently.
Integration with Existing Systems
The eQuads were seamlessly integrated into the council’s existing maintenance fleet. They were deployed in areas where traditional vehicles faced challenges, such as narrow streets and busy pedestrian zones. Fernhay provided training for the council’s maintenance teams to ensure they could fully utilise the eQuad’s capabilities.
Deployment and Support
Once deployed, the eQuads quickly demonstrated their value by reducing the noise and pollution associated with urban maintenance. The council noted an improvement in operational efficiency and a positive response from residents who appreciated the quieter, cleaner approach to street cleaning and park upkeep. Fernhay continues to support the council by ensuring the eQuads remain in optimal condition and providing updates on best practices.
Continuous Improvement
The council regularly evaluates the performance of the eQuads and makes adjustments to maintenance routes and schedules as needed. This continuous improvement process ensures that the eQuads continue to meet the evolving needs of the city, enhancing overall urban management and sustainability.
