Innovation and Eco-Consciousness at Brambleton
Segway PT Enhances Ability of Community Security Force
September 5, 2008 Brambleton, Loudon County – Now eight inches taller and able to easily maneuver around populated sidewalks at 12 miles per hour, Brambleton Security Officer J. J. Frazier hasn’t experienced an amazing growth spurt or found the Fountain of Youth. He has been provided with an effective and innovative patrolling tool, though – a Segway PT.
The personal transporter was recently purchased by the master-planned community's developer, Brambleton Group LLC, to furnish its security force with an environmentally conscious way of improving accessibility and visibility. Powered by electricity, the Segway is an eco-friendly alternative to utilizing a patrol car. The cutting edge device decreases response time when compared with a foot patrol and offers more flexibility than a standard vehicle.
“Our security personnel can now see more and accomplish more with the versatility the Segway provides,” notes Kim Adams, Brambleton’s Director of Sales and Marketing. “With 2,000 acres including a Town Center, over 2,000 residents and miles of sidewalks, our community is an ideal application for this new technology. Brambleton takes pride in embracing innovation to improve the lives of our residents.”
