I firmly believe there is no accident the roads are set out like this and the extra space at the side. with all the mines about there is a lot of movement of these huge loads they have to make provision for these.

Hi Steve,

A nice set of pictures of this 'abnormal load movement'. Obviously been done so many times, and so well planned, that it must go like clockwork.

Best Wishes

This is not as abnormal as you think when there are mines out in the area. we had six from this to swimming pools. the roads are this wide I believe because of the loads some of the other roads it would be difficult to get off. my brother in law has been part of a few himself and yes it all planned and even where to stop. this can only happen in day light hours in the dark they have to stop off the road for safety.
