@wmplanthire putting their Komatsu PC360LC-11 Super Long Front excavators to good use. They are currently working to stabilise a railway embankment following ground movement, with the long reach machines reprofiling the slope to a shallower angle. bit.ly/4snBSIh

We have started our wreck removal works at @StornowayPort for the SS Alabama and SS Portugal. The vessels which sank in 1904 and 1950 are being removed piece by piece by a team of divers. Find out the full story in this article by the BBC: bbc.in/3RZXCZi #shipwreck

Attended the @ICE_engineers #Breakwaters conference this week meeting some great people with the grand finale being dinner aboard @HMSWarrior1860 and thought we’d share a photo from a few years back of our #longreach carrying out essential maintenance 😎 #civilengineering

Pleased with 3rd on the Circuit. Weren’t quite in the frame for a win but still nice to be on the podium on totally new stages to us.🙌 Struggled a bit with the bumps early on but made improvements as the day went on. Thanks for the support 💪 Incar👇 youtu.be/75hcqVzHiHs

3rd in West Cork 🥉 A good result and a clean weekend but I felt like we had the speed to fight for the win but it was undone with 2 wrong tyre calls that just set us back and took us out of the fight. Unreal to get a couple of stages on dry tar again😍 Thanks to everyone🤙
