We successfully transported two 305,000kg castings from Sheffield Forgemasters International. The mill housings, 13m long, 4.7m wide and 2m high are destined for Venezuela and were transported from Sheffield to the Port of Goole where they were loaded to a barge and shipped to Duisburg Germany. We planned the route, organised the special orders, police and council liaison, street furniture removal and bridging of structures to successfully transport the castings without incident and on schedule.

20Rows of Nicolas MDED axles, specifically designed spreader mats, and two MAN 8×4 ballasted units were utilised for the moves which were conducted during the hours of darkness with complex contra-flows on the motorway network en route to the Port of Goole.
