Joining the Ashcourt stable for the first time comes a Volvo


P6870C paver. Replacing two competitor models, the new Volvo P6870C will be deployed in the Group’s Highways division. Commenting on the new addition, Ashcourt’s Highways


Operations Manager Steve Hughes stated: “Having taken into consideration third party references, we chose the Volvo because of previous experience operating the ABG pavers. But, most importantly, was the fact that we can rely fully on SMT GB for full support when it’s required.” Steve Hughes went on to state: “The arrival of the new paver


heralds a change in our strategy for providing a service throughout Yorkshire, whereby we are now concentrating on the


pure paving aspect of road surfacing, with contracts ranging from; site work, car parks, driveways and public road resurfacing.” The paver supplied to Ashcourt sports the company’s striking Union Jack motif on the sides of the hopper along with additional LED lighting – essential for night working and a convex mirror fitted above the hopper and a Moba Matic II twin grade system kit. The Ashcourt Group has a range of operating divisions, that include: civil engineering, house building, purpose-built luxury student accommodation, aggregates and recycling, highway construction and maintenance and, more recently, suppliers of bulk fuels. ■ Mark Gunns
