Caravan Transport in North West England

Permits & Access for Caravan Transport in North West England
Notification may span Lancashire, Cumbria and Greater Manchester forces. The M6 carries abnormal loads daily, but statics are held to off-peak hours and can need an escort through busy junctions. The Fylde's wide, level roads are easy going; Lake District approaches climb into narrow, winding passes that rule some routes out for the widest caravans.
Static caravans are abnormal loads, so the STGO notification to Lancashire Constabulary / Cumbria Constabulary / Greater Manchester Police and the mandatory escort are handled by your transporter as part of the job — typically allow 5 to 10 working days for processing.
