Oversize Route Planning

THE RIGHT ROUTE, PLANNED BEFORE THE WHEELS TURN.

The route can make or break an oversized movement. Low bridges, overhead power lines, narrow roads, roundabouts, roadworks and travel curfews all affect how and when a load can move. Borgy’s Pilot Cars provides traffic and route support that identifies these challenges early and manages them on the day.

We work with heavy haulage companies, mining and asphalt operators and owner drivers to confirm route requirements against NHVR guidelines, arrange the right pilot and escort vehicles, and keep other road users safe as the load passes through.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ's

What does traffic and route support involve?

Traffic and route support covers the planning and on-road management of an oversized movement. It includes assessing the route, arranging permits, providing pilot and escort vehicles, and coordinating with drivers and road managers so the load and other road users stay safe.

Why is a route assessment needed for an oversized load?

Oversized loads can be restricted by bridge heights, overhead lines, road widths, tight corners, roadworks and travel-time curfews. Assessing the route before departure helps avoid delays, re-routing and safety risks during the movement.

Does my oversized load need a pilot vehicle?

It depends on the load’s width, length, height and mass, the route and the state or territory you are travelling through. Borgy’s can confirm the pilot and escort requirements for your movement under the applicable NHVR notices and permit conditions.

Can Borgy’s arrange the permit as well as the escort?

Yes. We offer an end-to-end service, from the initial consultation and permit application through to pilot vehicles on the road, so you deal with one team for the whole movement.

How early should I contact you about a movement?

As early as possible. Permit processing times vary depending on the route and the road managers involved, so early contact gives more time to plan the route and confirm requirements before your preferred travel date.

Do you provide route support across Australia?

Yes. Our network of fully insured, nationally accredited pilot drivers allows us to support oversized movements across Australia, from one-off loads to large-scale ongoing projects.
