The gang of thieves also took 40 catalytic converters from the yard in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire. Investigating officer, Detective Constable Tade Toseland, said of the offenders: “I would urge anyone with any information about this theft to call police. A large amount of metal was stolen and is likely a van would have been used to take it away.”

The key role of barriers from Carpark Barriers & Turnstiles is to prevent unauthorised access whilst providing minimum inconvenience to those who do have authorisation. Our systems can stop vehicles at the relevant barrier and disallow entry or exit until they are identified. An automatic barrier enables you to have full control over who is allowed access through any controlled point at any time of the day. Automatic Bollards can easily be lowered when passage is authorised, typically within 2-3 seconds. They are failsafe in both a retracted and extended position.
