Thackray Crane assists with bridge repair

Critical highway repair in West Grove, Pennslyvania, was carried out by Thackray Crane Rental.

In West Grove, Pennsylvania, USA, Thackray Crane Rental played a pivotal role in a high-stakes infrastructure repair on Route 1 at Pusey Mill Road. After a truck collision severely damaged the bridge beams, Thackray was tasked with executing a safe and efficient removal operation to facilitate critical highway repairs.

Thackray Crane Rental dispatched two Liebherr LTM 1400-7.1 wheeled mobile cranes to remove damaged bridge beams

To handle the significant weight and complexity of the bridge girder removal, Thackray deployed two 500 US ton (400 tonne) capacity Liebherr LTM 1400-7.1 wheeled mobile cranes, which were designed for extreme precision and heavy-duty lifting, the company said.

The cranes, which were operated by Thackray’s highly skilled team, ensured the structural components were extracted safely, efficiently, and without incident, the company said.
