Project B&HC

The specifics of separate B&HC transportation of large-weight and oversize cargo differs significantly from the usual road transportation of traditional cargo, and even from the B&HC transportation, which slightly exceed the current permissible parameters of a vehicle with a load.

There are various restrictions for separate B&HC transportation of large-weight and oversize cargo, for example, termination of two-way traffic on roads and railways for certain time, there is a need to significantly reinforce the bridge crossing on the highway in the construction of a new crossing, since reinforcement of the old one does not provide the passage of B&HC, disconnection and raising of power lines, in some cases, dismantling/installation of overhead utilities, arrangement of routes, various sites, etc.

Taking into account the specifics of separate transported B&HC, it is necessary to implement effective technical measures and apply a special work technology that guarantees the reliability and safety of transportation, which is ensured by a comprehensive project, including certain independent and interrelated tasks: transportation of separate B&HC of large-weight and oversize cargo as such, with the choice of a vehicle for transportation, selection and arrangement of the route, attraction of design and survey organizations having the appropriate licenses to perform the specified work, providing appropriate escort by road police vehicles or escort, including contact cable networks, obtaining all permits and approvals, loading and unloading operations, building sites (berths) for these works, development of a plan for positioning and securing cargo on the vehicle, equipment (or developing structures) of the vehicle; development of non-standard equipment, etc.

Project cargo logistics

Road transport is the most mobile mode of transport. High traffic flow without overload on various roads, the possibility to organize the door-to-door delivery of goods, i.e. directly from the consignor’s warehouse to the consignee’s warehouse without overload, high speed ensuring the fastest delivery of goods in optimal batches according to tight schedule, on a continuous basis, predetermines its advantages over other modes of transport and is the reason for its intensive development.
For corporate consignors/consignees/customers with a need for international transportation of large volume throughout the year, on a regular basis, K-Transgroup LLP provides any type of vehicle: tautliner, mega-trailer, tilt-covered tandem, refrigerators, platform opening and other trucks.
