Pipe Transport - The Great Man Made River (GMMR)
Pipe
Transport
Pipes are
carried on purpose built pipe transporters designed
to
support their massive weight ranging between 75 and 86
tons.
During
the project progress around 300 Truck Trailers were utilized to
carry these huge concrete pipes day and night.
Haul
Roads
The
weight of the pipe transported is such that they can not be carried
on the public road system.
Roads
specially constructed to carry them are called haul
roads.
These
form a massive network to distribute pipe from the two pipe
plants
to the
pipeline. 3,715 Km of haul roads are regularly maintained. There
are further 500 Km estimated haul roads for Phase
III
Phase I
Total Length 1,600 Km
Phase II
Total Length 2,155 Km
