Extra arrangements

We can also arrange a second man in the pilot/escort vehicle if required saving the haulier time & money. All our drivers have been involved with the haulage industry at one time or another & will assist if necessary with the loading & unloading of abnormal loads.

We recognise the importance of the Escorts role in complying with legal & safety requirements. When notifying the movement of an abnormal load (or abnormal load vehicle); the police may ask for a self-certificate or other evidence to show that the vehicles and personnel to be used comply with the Highways Agency Code of Practice (Self-Escorting of Abnormal Loads and Abnormal Vehicles).
Traffic Management Plan – We can provide a TM plan supported by on-board CCTV to support you AIL movement/route survey. Police or Local Authorities may require a TM plan, especially for large/repetative moves.
Escort through – Continuity of Escort from pre-arranged lay-up point to another. Typically on an arterial route where client wishes to 'hand-over' in order to avoid overnight stays and excessive return mileages.
Escort to destination – Continuity of Escort from pre-arranged point through to final destination – eg loads that require Escort for final portion of the route only (benefitting from our local knowledge).

Escort to destination

Escort from source – Provide continuity of Escort from loads source to an agreed position or lay-up point. This will typically require local knowledge and apply to loads that may not require an escort along arterial routes but require Escort for the initial portion of the route.

More
