  3. Spain Portugal Italy France Austria Germany Belgium Netherlands Sweden Denmark Finland Greece Cyprus Latvia Slovakia ESTA (2) Participants in Expertgroup

  4. Subjects / chapters • Introduction/summary • Definitions • Permits • Vehicle information • Escort • Marking/signalling • Self propelled machinery • Corridors

  5. ”Guide of Best Practices in abnormal transport (second draft) European Comission Directorate-General for Energy and Transport” • erikoiskuljetusmääritelmät yhtenäiseksi • erikoiskuljetusperävaunuille yhtenäinen rekisteri – SERT dokumentti • (katsastus omassa maassa riittää) • yhtenäiset hakemuslomakkeet • yhtenäiset vaatimukset saatoille – saattoautoille • minimiajat lupien käsittelyyn – ( Suomessa käsittely nopeinta Euroopassa) • erikoiskuljetuskäytävät Eurooppaan • pitkäaikaislupia tietyille mitoille ja massoille Eurooppaan

  6. Chapter Permits • Services • Office hours, One stop shopping • Long term permits • Application forms: which elements should be in-/excluded • Reduce delay in granting permits

  7. A long term permit for transports on motorways / high capacity roads: • Width: < 4 m • Length: < 32 m, if extendable and provided with steered axles • Height: < 4.25 m • Weight: < 80/100 tonnes • Axle loads: 12 tonnes on beam axles, 16 tonnes in one line of two pendulum axles

  8. Reduce the term for granting permits

  9. Mobile cranes • 12 tonnes per axle • Weight < 72 tonnes without a permit • Length < 20 meter without a permit • Ballast truck trailer: same regime as crane • 72 – 100 tonnes: long term permit

  10. Finally • Other ESTA wishes: corridors, SERT • Marking/signalling • When is this document ready? • How can ESTA influence the final version?
