A medical grade Nitrogen gas tanker being escorted by police cars and motorcycles in addition to a fire engine, police car and various other emergency vehicles responding with siren and lights in England, UK and one in Brussels, Belgium.
The 225 tonne tank, belonging to Air Liquide was being used to store Nitrogen for use in medicine. During transport by Collett Ltd they were empty. Due to the abnormally large size, Staffordshire Police were available to shut down junctions and escort the convoy. Various staff were on hand to cut trees, lift BT cables and move roadside furniture to allow for the safe passage of the vehicle.
This heavy load was the 3rd out of a total of 4 to pass through the county of Staffordshire over a 6 week period. Due to the difficult movement of the abnormal load and the fact it wont fit on motorways, the journey of each load took a week to travel over 100 miles from Ellesmere Port in Cheshire to Coleshill in Warwickshire.
