13 transformer stations in 5 days – comprehensive logistics and site security
13 transformer stations in a week! We committed to the unloading, ground securing, and transportation of components for 13 transformer stations to their final locations. The entire operation was precisely planned and executed in just 5 working days, allowing for timely project completion.
As part of this task:
- we provided over 1200 m² of temporary surfaces,
- we ensured 3 assembly teams,
- we utilized two mobile cranes with a lifting capacity of 60 and 100 tons,
- we carried out the transport and assembly of all components according to the schedule.
Thanks to efficient organization and the use of road plates for rent, all stations were safely delivered and installed as planned.
Logistical challenges and the need for Metrum road plates
Transporting and assembling such a large number of transformer stations in a short time required proper ground preparation and temporary infrastructure. The main challenges included:
- Ground stabilization for transporting heavy components – stations had to be delivered without the risk of transport vehicles getting stuck.
- Safe unloading and assembly – it was necessary to prepare a surface that allowed for the setting and operation of high-capacity mobile cranes.
- Quick execution – the entire process had to proceed smoothly to avoid delays and disruptions in the construction schedule.
- Protection of existing infrastructure and ground – the solutions used had to prevent ground damage and allow for its restoration to its original state later.
To meet these requirements, we used Metrum road plates, which provided a stable base for cranes and heavy component transport.
Wooden Metrum road plates
The primary solution used in this project was Metrum road plates, which were used to secure the ground and create temporary maneuvering areas.
The main advantages of using Metrum plates in this project:
- high load-bearing capacity, enabling safe passage and operations of cranes with a 60 and 100-ton capacity,
- application flexibility, allowing for quick installation and adjustment of the surface to terrain conditions,
- ground protection, eliminating the risk of settlement or ground damage,
- easy assembly and disassembly, which allowed for the quick restoration of the area to its original state after completion.

Implementation effects – what benefits did the use of road plates provide?
Thanks to the use of road plates for rent, we achieved:
- stable and safe ground conditions for transport and assembly operations,
- completion of the entire project within the planned 5 days,
- avoiding ground damage, which allowed for its quick restoration to its original state,
- minimizing the risk of delays and additional costs,
- creating suitable working conditions for cranes and assembly teams, ensuring seamless installation of all stations.
Summary – why is it worth renting road plates for such projects?
Renting road plates is a solution that allows for the quick and effective preparation of a site for projects requiring stable ground. In this project, the use of Metrum plates enabled safe access to the construction site, effective ground protection, and efficient assembly of 13 transformer stations in just 5 days.
