Watch as police escort a monster-sized vehicle through the town of Middlewich in Cheshire. The 567 tonne transport squeezes through the centre at a width of 5.7m and 63m in length. A large transformer was being transported from the factory in Stafford to Ellesmere Port, to be shipped overseas.

The super-grid transformer has been manufactured by GE Vernova and is one of many to have travelled along the designated abnormal load route from their factory in Stafford to Ellesmere Port for export.

Collett & Sons transported the super-grid transformer cradled within their Greiner Side Girder Bridge System trailer. The tractor-trailer combination was pulled/pushed by MAN TGX and Mercedes-Benz Arocs tractor units (with a spare for extra power if needed). The combination totalled 63 metres in length, 5.7m in width, was made up of 144 wheels, and had a total gross weight of 567 tonnes.

Cheshire Police escorted the oversized load from a layby near Holmes Chapel to another layby near Chester, having completed the Staffordshire portion the previous day. It will then be moved into Ellesmere Port at a later time. Several police cars and motorcycles were used to shut down roads as the oversized load moved.
