      Abnormal or wide loads like this are invariably moved in daylight hours, as it's inherently safer to do do so. These are done under specific Highways regulations, with the Police being the crucial control element, as tgey coordinate riad closures and public safety and control surrounding these movements! Local authorities & utility companies are involved too.

    Why such a derogatory remark. This is just the police doing a very necessary job to keep other road users safe. Also to ensure a very very expensive cargo gets to its destination. Traffic chaos! How about drivers use a bit of gumption. After all what’s a small delay in an eightyish long life

  • @annlewis7685
    @annlewis7685 2 місяці тому

    These journeys with abnormal loads are normally done during the night, so it's possible the two Councils did not coordinate delivery.
    The abnormal loads are usually very high cranes, involvement of multiples collaborations with individual councils in the routes. in possible roadworks, instructions of street furniture (islands, lamp columns, narrow roads etc)
    Those street furnitures should have been temporarily removed. Wow. Good driving by those 16 wherlerd lorry drivers.

  • @Tomm9y
    @Tomm9y 2 місяці тому +1

    Why is it that even in the 21st Century roads and access to major sites are so poorly designed, that moving slightly oversize loads takes so much work. Our priorities are crazy, planners, road designers should require far higher standards of minimum access, bigger sites for hospitals. More space for housing too. The amount of additional land required would be minimal. We need to stop paying huge prices for land. Houses, hospitals should only cost us what it takes to construct them, banks should stop lending for land purchases. We have space and should use it.
    Admirable wide load driving and the police escort.

  • @annlewis7685
    @annlewis7685 2 місяці тому

    These are some of problems councils should consider when they continue to narrow already congested streets with street furniture. Are these obstacles taken into account when their planners comes up with new ideas to renovate or redesign streets or is their main focus is to get rid of cars and all vehicles.

    • @Southern999Responses
      @Southern999Responses  23 дні тому

      They needed a police escort as they had to take up the middle to avoid trees etc, due to the width of the loads. It wouldn’t have affected 999 response resources as all these officers do overtime for these sort of things so you still have the normal amount of vehicles out for 999 calls.
