You must check the Suffolk Police guidance before you plan your route and notify them using the details on their site.
If your route uses a trunk road you will also need to contact National Highways for permission.
You must provide an indemnity to the highway authority for any vehicle over 44 tonnes.
Heavy, wide or long loads are commonly referred to as ‘abnormal loads’ although the correct term is an ‘Abnormal Indivisible Load’ (AIL). An abnormal indivisible load is one which cannot be divided into two or more loads for carriage on roads without undue expense or risk of damage.
Mobile cranes, engineering plant and road recovery vehicles are also likely to fall within STGO legislation.
