CRANE ON A TRUCK STRUCK A LOW BRIDGE

January 5, 2015

A loader crane was ripped from its truck in Belgium earlier today, when it struck a low bridge. 

The crane, belonging to concrete products manufacturer Grandjean-Mabegra, was delivering concrete pipes and passing through the town of Pepinster, near Liege when it struck the railway bridge.

                                      The crane was left behind by the truck

Traffic was stopped both on the road and on the railway above, while the integrity of the bridge was verified.
Thankfully no one was injured in the incident.
