SwanR Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 A relatively frequent occurrence. I saw one of these abnormal loads being escorted around the double roundabout at the Horning Road / Stalham Road junction a couple of weeks ago with the traffic stopped. You wouldn’t want to get stuck behind them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea14Ian Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Very true Jean.Must see these loads.Often Caravans at least once a week.saw one the other day,on quite a narrow road.Also we come across heavy farm traffic.Part of the fun living in the countryside and in the Middle of the broads. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonderwall Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 The boat - which is 5.1m wide, 21.5m long and weighs 44,000kg - will be escorted by police on Monday, April 24, at 9am. Surely 2am would be a more sensible time for all concerned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grendel Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 I think its more a case that at 2am people will be driving on the road not expecting not to see a big abnormal load, they are better moved during daylight. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernard Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Loads that size are not allowed to be transported after dark. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
