BCS (Bill Cussen and Sons) recently set up operations in Limerick, Southern Ireland, following a management split at Cussen & Co Crane Hire which has seen the Cussen family pull out and set up on their own.

BCS said the addition of the cranes to its existing 90t LTM 1090-4.1 would help it to offer customers a comprehensive crane hire service.

Brian Lang, Liebherr Ireland sales manager, said: "The formation of a new crane hire company in Ireland provides evidence to the recovery in the economy and the steady return of growth."
