What we are doing
As works progress on the Old Oak Common site, on the weekend of Thursday, 12 December and Friday, 13 December 2024, we need to dismantle one of the tower cranes. This tower crane will be dismantled using a mobile crane which will be delivered to site early morning on Saturday, 12 December. Please find a map with the location of the Tower Crane on page 3.
Mobile crane delivery
The mobile crane will be delivered by six articulated trucks that will travel along the A40 and up Victoria Road. They will pass the Atlas Road roundabout and arrive on Old Oak Common Lane. Due to the size of the trucks the deliveries cannot take place during normal working hours.
The mobile crane will arrive on site around 4am (as they will not be permitted to drive on public roads any time after 6am) and will be rigged up between 04:30 am and 08:00 am. Once the mobile crane has finished removing the tower crane, it will be taken down and removed from the site. This will take place on 13 December between 6pm and 10pm.
