Ainscough Crane Hire LTD sets the the first of eight ‘superspan’ gantries crossing whole sections of the M60 and M62 motorway project. The gantries – which will span both the eastbound and westbound carriageways of the motorway – are up to 59 meters wide, weigh up to 78 tons. A 150 ton mobile crane is used to join the two sections together before the larger crane lifts the whole structure in place across the motorway.
