And when the two, large infrastructure builds and cranes, are pictured together – as seen on this month's front cover shot of the construction of the tallest cable-stayed road bridge in India – well, let's just say it makes a crane magazine editor very happy!
In this issue alone some of the breathtaking projects covered include: the transport of a tunnel boring machine into a mountain for one of the longest underground railway connections in the world (p42); the installation of a 1600 tonne bridge over one of Belgium's busiest motorways (p22); and the formation of a joint venture that will receive some of the largest items of infrastructure ever seen in Australia, weighing up to 4,500 tonnes apiece (p40). I hope you enjoy the issue.
