Neither Police or self/private escorts are covered in legislation & Police cannot charge unless specifically requested (case law). HTA & RHA letters to NPCC & Chief Constables requesting clarification of their policy on Police escorts for #AbnormalLoads rb.gy/m7e223
HTA members @WillShipping (haulier), @abnormal_loads and @Road_Pilots (#HTAqualified Escorts) working as a team to move this valuable and historic vessel (Motor Torpedo Boat 219 #MTB219) to the south coast for renovation by Kraken Technology Group.

Delighted to have been a part of moving this historic vessel with @WillShipping and @abnormal_loads onto the next stage in its life being restored on the south coast.

#AbnormalLoads - transport bodies urge police to apply rules consistently. Hauliers said some forces enforcing blanket movement embargoes, and deviating from legislative guidance. More: bit.ly/3J0TEfY @HT_Association @BHHPA @NCCLtd

"It is the responsibility of hauliers to satisfy themselves that their own escort personnel are sufficiently competent to undertake the task of escorting abnormal loads. Competent means that they are suitably trained and qualified for the role."

RHA and @HT_Association are alerting operators moving abnormal loads, specifically through West Midlands and Staffordshire, that @WMPolice
@StaffsPolice are checking, through “Operation Nightstare” that loads being moved are legal, safe, and compliant. bit.ly/3VWZH9M

Our thanks to @NationalHways for hosting yesterday's meeting of the @HTAsafer project. Lots of useful discussion with industry and police stakeholders on ways to improve escorting and #AbLoads compliance.
Apologies to anyone held up on the A379 this morning whilst we escorted this #WideLoad to #Dawlish #SouthDevon. Never an easy route with such a large load. #AbLoads @HTAsafer
