INTRODUCTION OF REMOTE CONTROLLED YARD CRANES AT THE PORT OF FELIXSTOWE

 

Over the past few months the Port of Felixstowe have been installing and testing their new remote controlled yard cranes. Having been asked to provide vehicles to help test them, we have seen first hand the benefit these will have to the ports operations in the future. 

 

While these are still very much under trial we have been told that they are looking to roll out the remote control aspect of these cranes in the 4th Quarter this year if all goes to plan.
