Mission completed in
the early morning
crossing six traffic lanes and two railway tracks in only fifteen minutes.
For the expansion of the Dutch
power grid, Mammoet was asked
to transport three 330-ton
transformers to a new substation.
To save time and costs, the
150-kilometer journey from
factory to foundation took place
over water and land. The overland
route in particular posed some
tough logistic challenges.
Through meticulous planning and
coordination, Mammoet managed
to cross roads, railways and one
of the countrys busiest motorways with minimal delay in traffic.
