One of the largest mobile cranes in the country has been assembled in the Lime Kiln car park, Budleigh Salterton. It is part of the final stage of the LORP project, reconnecting the Otter estuary to its floodplain.

The 500 ton crane will be used to hoist three sections of newly constructed footbridge in place to span a 70-metre section of embankment.This will then be gradually removed over a period of up to three months

It’s quite a spectacle!
