Engineering Transportation

Reliable, professional civil engineering transportation services are crucial to delivering the major infrastructure projects that form the backbone of the UK economy. 

Chris Bennett (Heavy Haulage) Ltd’s fully trained drivers and specialist road haulage vehicles are up to the challenge of civil infrastructure haulage on urban and rural routes across the country 

We provide heavy haulage for civil construction, infrastructure and engineering projects of all sizes, in all parts of the UK, backed by industry accreditations like FORS Gold status. 

Accompanied by our fleet of escort vehicles, and with administrative support to liaise with local authorities and police when planning abnormal load routes, even the largest cargo can be delivered safely and on time by Chris Bennett’s qualified and competent drivers. 

The Scale of Civil Engineering in the UK 

Civil engineering projects were worth nearly £45 billion to the UK economy in 2022, according to a Mintel report, an increase of 9% over the previous year. 

Nearly a third of this output (31%) was attributed to the railway sector, highlighting the potential for rail infrastructure projects to be located in hard-to-reach areas that demand even more careful route planning. 

Chris Bennett has a proven track record of completing difficult deliveries, using expert local knowledge to identify the best routes for heavy road freight. 

We apply this specialist knowledge and unparalleled experience to all of our civil engineering transportation services, so that every heavy haulage journey we complete is delivered to the highest standard. 

Our Commitment to Quality 

Engineering and civil infrastructure haulage involves high-value goods, materials and equipment, all of which needs to be on-site on schedule to avoid costly delays to project completion. 

Our road haulage for civil construction projects prioritises delivery on time and on budget, starting from the initial route-planning stage to avoid any low bridges, weak roads and other obstacles. 

Where temporary road closures are needed in order to allow a wide load to pass, we will work with local authorities ahead of time to ensure that this can go ahead, getting your project-critical cargo from A to B faster. 

Across bridge-building, rail and road, underground infrastructure and sewerage contracts, our proven track record shows that we have the expertise and understanding to deliver quality every time.  

There When You Need Us 

We appreciate that major infrastructure work is often scheduled to take place overnight, especially on busy motorways, and on other high-demand road and rail routes. 

Speak to our transport planners to discuss overnight availability of our fleet. We can make our heavy haulage vehicles available on a 24-hour basis for deliveries, night-time motorway roadworks, and for the erection or dismantling of construction cranes. 

Our seven-day service means we can offer weekend haulage for civil construction and engineering projects, so that our drivers are there whenever you need us.
