Based on many years of cooperation with the Mierka Donauhafen Krems, the Prangl Ges.m.b.H (Brunn am Gebirge , Austria) and Rhenus were commissioned with the special transport of two powerful system parts from the city area of Weiz to the Krems harbour. The overall vehicle dimensions with a length of 27 meters, a width of 6.80 meters, a height of 4.50 meters and an overall weight of 132 tonnes not only provided a magnificent view for the scores of onlookers, it also presented the experts from Prangl with a welcome challenge.
In particular, the passage through the city centre of Weiz with some tight bends as well as several construction sites near the A2 Autobahn demanded all the skills of the experienced drivers. Thanks to the meticulous advance transport planning as well as the perfect teamwork of the well-coordinated on-site Prangl team, these challenges were tackled with ease. The two special transports arrived at the Mierka Donauhafen Krems on schedule, after travelling in a convoy for approximately seven hours.
There, a 220-tonne telescopic crane was deployed in anticipation of the two special transports, which professionally unloaded the two parts with the utmost care. The two system components were subsequently shipped from the Krems harbour to the North Sea port.
