PHOTOS show a 120-tonne wide load convoy carefully travelling through Weymouth and Portland, which sparked “traffic chaos” and delays across the area. Police vehicles, including two vehicles and a motorcycle, helped escort a large haulage vehicle carrying deep-sea electrical cable weighing in excess of 120 tonnes, as well as a number of cranes and trucks travel towards Portland after lunchtime on Monday, December 14. Police officers carried out temporary roadblocks to prevent vehicles leaving road junctions and allow the huge vehicles safely travel in the area and carefully navigate smaller roads. Industrial staff members wearing fluorescent jackets walked along the road to help safely guide the convoy around the narrow roads.
