Truck hauling 75t steel frame squeezed through intersection

AN oversized load paused traffic momentarily so it could be squeezed through traffic lights in South Lake about midday.

A Main Roads spokeswoman said traffic lights were “pulled slightly” to allow a truck hauling a 75-tonne steel frame to pass through the intersection of North Lake Road and Osprey Drive.

She said the frame touched the lights but was not wedged as previously thought.

There was no damage to the frame or the traffic lights.

The truck was under escort at the time.An oversized load was coaxed through traffic lights in South Lake today.
