Peter Haddock of Content With Media talks to Mick George Construction Manager, Graham Clark about its big 1.2m cube earthworks project in Lutterworth.
They talk about the millions the business has invested in new equipment from SMT GB & Volvo Construction Equipment, Finning & Caterpillar Inc. and Bell Equipment UK.
Graham also explains how they are trialling scrapers from K-Tec Earthmovers Inc. and new UK dealer SMT GB, with the help of The Sirius Group.
This is a real insight into a major project with some serious kit on it. It is big on technology with 3D machine control across the site and it's impressive new Volvo EC750 EL excavator plays a key role.
This site is all about efficiency, reducing carbon, measuring performance and comparing earthmoving techniques.
It also shows us how collaborative our industry can be as P. Flannery Plant Hire (Oval) Ltd ha been supporting the project with a large fleet of its own equipment.
Having witnessed the scrapers in action, we definitely think they have a place in the future of UK Earthworks, particularly project like HS2 Ltd and Highways England
Thanks to K-Tec Earthmovers Inc. and SMT GB for supporting this video.
