Vlastuin decided to design a transport frame that would reduce the width during transit and that would keep the height of the abnormal load as low as possible. The frame was designed and manufactured in the Vlastuin Transport’s Renswoude depot in the Netherlands. The firm said that the successful completion of this job meant it could now offer customers the option of delivering generators to even more remote and rural locations.

Nominated in the SPMT category was Vlastuin Transport of the Netherlands for its transportation of a wind turbine generator in Launceston, Cornwall, UK. The generator had to be moved in a vertical position and travel on some very rural roads, where space was particularly restricted.
