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

Another week, another case of Britain’s crumbling infrastructure
HGVs and abnormal loads diverted hundreds of miles off M-ways onto B-roads and city streets because of weight restrictions on weak bridges

Great article from @PACTS on why it's long overdue for @transportgovuk to actually start leading on road safety again. Ministers always trot out "There is no room for complacency" in speeches, whilst refusing to lead because of the UK's relatively good road safety performance.
Heavy Transport Association retweeted
Issues like this are why @HT_Association are working with us on the #SAbLE project to improve the safety of abnormal load escorts. The more compliant operators we can get, the fewer like this there will be for #Police to focus on.
@PoliceChiefs @transportgovuk already involved.
#RCRT called to incident where 2 ab loads and escort had tried to go through road works on A11 at E Harling and found they couldn't! Turned & escorted to layby. 14 offences reported, including front reg plate of escort covered!

Some enforcement of abnormal load movements this week showed an alarming amount of ignorance to rules surrounding the movement of such loads!
Photos show a few of the veh's prevented from continuing their journeys until the appropriate procedures completed.
