June 10 - Van der Vlist has transported a 15 m long generator from Germany to a sugar factory in Bury St Edmunds, UK.
The 50-tonne unit, which measured 3.1 m wide by 3.85 m high, was transported by road on a two-axle bridge trailer with supports to distribute the load, explained Van der Vlist.
With combined transport dimensions of 35.75 m x 3.2 m x 4.5 m, Van der Vlist's office in the UK organised BE16 special order permits and escorts for the oversize delivery.
