The Port Authority of the Balearic Islands (APB) has upgraded part of the Port Police fleet with the incorporation of ten new vehicles, replacing ten others that have been withdrawn from service. This initiative was carried out with a total investment of 545,000 euros and forms part of the APB's commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency.
The new additions are hybrid and electric vehicles. The vans are all-electric, while the off-road cars have a hybrid system and are equipped with a detainee kit for operational tasks.
The vehicles have been allocated to the ports of Palma, Mahón and Ibiza. Palma received five units, Ibiza four and Mahón one. This distribution responds to the operational needs of each port and contributes to reinforcing the presence and capacity for action of the Port Police.
With this renewal, the Port Police fleet now numbers thirty vehicles in total among all the ports managed by the APB. This figure includes motorbikes, passenger cars and vans. It should be noted that the renovation does not imply an increase in the number of vehicles, but rather a qualitative improvement in the resources available.
The APB thus continues to move towards a cleaner and more efficient mobility model, while improving the staff working conditions and heightening the security of the port area.
