VEHICLE SECURITY
AX Track and Gloucestershire Police collaborate to tackle scourge of agricultural machinery theft
» AX TRACK , THE VEHICLE TRACING and recovery experts , will offer its stolen vehicle tracking service to farming communities in Gloucestershire to fight back against thieves targeting the area .
The initiative will support Gloucestershire Police in tracing farming machinery and vehicles which are stolen , helping to reduce the pressure on limited resources while ensuring that farmers do not lose valuable machinery that is critical to their operations .
AX Track has developed a comprehensive portfolio of technology-driven solutions supported by an experienced team of stolen vehicle recovery specialists . It will track every piece of agricultural machinery and every farming vehicle stolen across Gloucestershire which has AX Track technology installed , even if they are taken across the county border . The AX Track team will work closely with Police resources and help to expose locations , properties and individuals linked to rural crime .
Neil Thomas , Director of Investigative Services at AX Track , said : “ This trailblazing initiative will make a real contribution to reducing rural theft in Gloucestershire . Agricultural machinery is hugely expensive and absolutely essential to farmers and their livelihoods . By collaborating with Gloucestershire Police , together we will also increase public confidence and demonstrate that private industry partners can make a valuable contribution to communities .
“ The initiative is an example of The Police and Crime Prevention Plan for Gloucestershire 2021-25 in action , which is great to see and sets a template for other counties . This is among the first collaborations of this nature that we ’ ve established with a UK Police force . Further enhancing its credibility , AX Track is also endorsed by the Police Secured by Design initiative .
“ The machinery and vehicles targeted by criminals are very valuable , and as prices increase , we could be seeing more crime of this nature if we don ’ t tackle it head on . In the first nine months of 2019 , Gloucester saw 413 vehicle thefts ( all types ), and even during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2021 we saw 285 thefts during the same period .”
