We\u2019ve all seen and been held up in the Smart Motorway\nschemes that are currently being undertaken across England. Large sections of\nthe main motorway network are in the process of having their hard shoulders\nturned into running lanes in a bid to alleviate traffic congestion. With the\nhard shoulders being potentially removed, many of the embankments are having to\nbe strengthened or increased in size to accommodate new emergency refuges which\nare situated every 800m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The multi-billion-pound projects are deemed to be a tenth of\nthe cost per mile compared to a full widening scheme and are currently being\nundertaken across almost every major motorway in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EARTHMOVERS were invited to one of the sections currently being\nworked on, not to see the construction works itself, but the preparatory works\nwhich takes place before the construction teams start work. The sections\nrequiring work usually take the existing hard shoulder away, stabilising the\nembankments before constructing a running lane. Many miles of the UK\u2019s motorway\nnetwork have verges covered in vegetation which requires removal before the\nconstruction work commences. With traffic management in place to reduce the\nwidth of the running lanes, the verges need to be cleared in readiness for the\nconstruction works to commence. In some places the extent of this work can be\njust a scrape over with a bucket whilst in the main, the work involves a great\ndeal of clearing and remediation before the construction teams start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the first contractors to be involved in many of the\nschemes are Acorn Environmental Management who are centrally based in Redditch.\nRun by Kevin O\u2019Rourke and operating in a wide variety of environmental\ndisciplines, the company has undertaken many of the clearance and de-vegetation\ntasks on many of the schemes over the past few years gaining a good reputation\nfor safe and reliable delivery of the sections back to the development teams.  One of the current schemes being worked on has\ncome off the back of similar projects for the delivery team where the company\nused a number of hired in excavators equipped with shears and mulchers along\nwith a lot of hand clearance to reduce the vegetation. Not only are Acorn\nundertaking the clearance work for the widening scheme to progress, they have\nalso secured the package to provide the ecology surveys, something that works\nhand in hand with the clearance teams. \u201cWe undertake regular surveys of an area\nprior to de-vegetation.\u201d Kevin explains \u201cOnce we know an area is clear, we have\nto respond very quickly and start the work so to avoid the risk of any birds\nnesting in that area.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the contract awarded for this section, the company made\nthe economical decision to purchase a pair of excavators themselves to undertake\nthe work. \u201cWe looked at a number of manufacturers before plumping for the\nKobelco.\u201d Kevin explained \u201cWe had heard excellent reports on their build\nquality and reliability and this is what lead us to the door of Molson.\u201d With\nthe brand choice made, the model was equally easy to choose. \u201cWe have to ensure\nwe keep our machines to a smaller size.\u201d Kevin comments \u201cWhilst we could\u2019ve\ntaken a 24t compact tail swing model, we looked further away from this contract\nand decided that the smaller 14.5t SK140SRLC-5 would be able to work in some of\nthe poorer underfoot conditions we can occasionally undertake. Whilst a\nconventional counterweighted machine would have been an ideal choice to work\nwith the large Trevi Benne shear attachment, the requirements for working on\nthe motorway projects precluded this. \u201cThe machine can easily handle the shear\nbut when it has got hold of a large tree, the weight over the front end can\nvary wildly.\u201d Kevin states \u201cSaying that, our drivers are very cautious and will\nnot take off more than they think the machine will cope with.\u201d Even at full\nstretch the Kobelco was able to handle some impressively sized trees and Kevin\nbelieves that in a normal operation where the machine is able to get closer to\nthe tree, the stability will not be an issue. Along with a full installation of\nauxiliary hydraulic services to power the shear or grab, both machines have\nbeen fitted with a full boxing ring and 360-degree camera systems. Luminous\nChapter 8 striping has been affixed to the counterweight whilst the boxing\nring, handrails and steps to the undercarriage have all been sprayed in the\nluminous yellow paint. To protect the operators from errant trees and branches,\nboth machines have been fitted with solid looking cab guards protecting the cab\ntop and windscreen. Additional guarding to both the slew ring and track motors\nhas been fitted and for the darker days of operation, no fewer than 18\nindependently switched LED lights adorn the upper structure. Whilst the newer\nmachine carries the Trevi Benne tree shear, the older of the two excavators is\nusually found sporting an Intermercato rotating grab which is ideal for\nhandling the material and feeding it into the Bandit chipper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We went out to the side of the motorway to see the pair of\nKobelcos in action working alongside one of Acorn\u2019s Bandit tracked chippers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whilst many sections of Acorn\u2019s work involve them working\noff the existing hard shoulder, ideal for the zero-tail swing machine, this\nsmall section involved a larger expanse of undergrowth on quite a steep drop\naway from the main carriageway. Regular operator of the shear equipped machine,\nSammy Ekins was able to track his way into the undergrowth and systematically\nstart delimbing the large trees which were running alongside a palisade fence\nand the bottom of the bank. \u201cAlthough the area has been cleared of any cabling\nbefore we start work, we still have to be vigilant just in case there is any\nunidentified cable or ductwork which might have been missed.\u201d Kevin explains\n\u201cWe sometimes have issues with branches and roots running through these fences\nand the drivers are very steady when it comes to removing the last bits of tree\nto ensure the fences are left standing and undamaged.\u201d Even though the Kobelco\nhas been taken with the dozer blade option, Sammy chooses not to use it on most\noccasions. \u201cThe machine is very well balanced at the best of times.\u201d He says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Essentially both machines are standard SK140SRLC models.\nPowered by an Isuzu 4-cylinder diesel that develops 78.5kW the engine meets\nT4Final requirements through the addition of SCR technology. The tried and\ntested build of the Kobelco may have been the key point for Kevin when it came\nto purchasing both excavators and this has certainly been borne out with both\nmachines having been extremely reliable since they arrived on the fleet. \u201cWe\nhave opted for a service contract on both machines.\u201d Kevin stated \u201cThis will\nensure that we can keep the machines running and on top of the game for as long\nas they are on the fleet. We need good reliable equipment on here to ensure we\ncan meet our program and ensure the main construction teams aren\u2019t held up and\ncan meet their programs too.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the newer excavator making quick work of removing the\ntrees in this section, the second machine was called into action. With only the\nhard shoulder to run on, the team work carefully to close off both sides of\ntheir working area before positioning an 8-wheeler with 40-yard roll on-off bin\nin front of the chipper. With the discharge chute of the Bandit inside the bin,\nthe material was steadily fed into the Bandit. The Bandit Intimidator XP has a\ncapacity of up to 20 inches and is more than capable of handling the timber on\nthis project. \u201cWe are so pleased with the Bandit, we have another on order.\u201d\nKevin explains. The tracked chipper weighs in at just under 10 tonnes and is\npowered by a 275hp Cat diesel. Not the quietest of machines, it is easy to see\nwhy Kevin and his teams have been suitably impressed with its performance.\nTaking the brash, branches and trunks through its wide opening, the chipper\nvery quickly and effectively fills the waiting truck with chips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhile we still undertake some clearance by hand, we are now moving away from it to use an excavator mounted shear.\u201d Kevin comments \u201cIt is quicker, easier and far safer than having lads on the ground using chainsaws. There is a huge reduction in HAV incidences and using an excavator to remove the trees reduces any issues of injury with men having to clamber over rough terrain.\u201d The benefits to both operator, contractor and their client is easy to see with the teams able to complete a section very safely and very quickly. Having the right tools at your disposal makes it simpler. \u201cWe are looking to get a second outfit commissioned soon.\u201d Kevin said, \u201cWe want a pair of excavators with a Bandit and having the second team working will enable us to get rid of the hired in machines we have working elsewhere on the project.\u201d Kevin is upbeat about the work his company is able to undertake thanks to mechanisation. \u201cWe are now looking at other large projects along with our regular work for Highways England and feel our move into owning our own fleet of excavators and chippers will benefit us in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
