Used extensively for heavy transport, abnormal loads and wind turbine components, Collett Consulting's detailed route access surveys provide in-depth route analysis to identify the most suitable delivery path. Our route access surveys provide an outlined analysis of how your project, cargo or components will be delivered to their destination. With wind turbine blades increasing in size and the development of new equipment to facilitate heavy transport, it's imperative that delivery routes from port to pad site are surveyed in their entirety for any restrictions that could impact on delivery.

> Click on the "WEBSITE" link for more > When undertaking visual route inspections our Transport Consulting Team consider gradients for delivery, supply Ordnance Survey grid referencing and provide a conclusion of the route(s) inspected. ur visual route inspections begin with the undertaking of a desk based study. Collett Transport Consulting will identify possible loading configurations based on our extensive knowledge and experience of abnormal load and heavy transport projects. Our Transport Consulting visual route inspections identify the loading configurations for each abnormal load and the most suitable route, unless potential routes have already been identified by our client. Our Team will then carry out site visits to determine the feasibility of the identified heavy transport route(s) and to highlight any potential pinch points which could impact on the loaded vehicle.

Used for wind turbine components and abnormal loads, these heavy transport test drives provide a detailed route analysis to show areas where route modifications are required to enable the passage of the proposed vehicle and load. The loaded vehicles simulate the correct dimensions of the abnormal loads, as would be required for the actual movement and any projections either in length, width or height are assembled to the trailer. All projections are designed to allow for easy modifications and reduction in size if required whilst on the public roads, this allows for quicker and smoother manoeuvrability reducing the impact on other road users.

Collett’s expert Transport Consulting Team provide detailed 2D & 3D swept path analysis reports and transport analysis, allowing us to accurately analyse the impact of abnormal loads and heavy transport projects. Our knowledge and expertise allows us to create 2D & 3D digital models of loaded delivery vehicles using our transport analysis and design software to provide intricate route planning reports and meticulous analysis of the vehicle's behaviour in the surrounding environment. Each vehicle model designed by the Collett Team is specifically created for each individual abnormal load or heavy transport project, based on exact vehicle dimensions and features accurate vehicle movement characteristics
