Too big for UK roads?

Found this unbelievable video on youtube, Too big for UK roads?

Seems to be going very fast for the weight that must be being moved…wouldn’t stop that in a hurry.

NS :open_mouth:

Not the biggest or heaviest load but a fairly impressive piece moved by ALE. It was shown on the One Show last night being transported around the Scottish headland by barge, too big to move from Govan to Rosyth by road.

Obviously not as Collets, Alleys. ALE, Econofreight and a large number of others have moved far bigger on UK roads in their time, the USA moves demand more axles due to their weaker bridges and axle weight laws where in the UK the bridge/axle weights are higher, so less axles needed for the same weight

Biggest thing I have seen are the windfarm components being moved around and they look big enough. Driving skills must have to be top notch to move them kind of loads?

I like the way they attach banners telling you it’s an oversize load :laughing:
