Some of those  components will weigh up to 600\u00a0tonnes.<\/p>\n<p>These components will arrive via the Mediterranean Sea at Fos-sur-Mer  in France. Their onward journey takes them along the Canal de Caronte  and across a large lake, L\u2019Etang de Berre, before transfer by road to  Cadarache. The test convoy is the second, and last, dry run before the  transport of Iter components begins in earnest later this year.<\/p>\n<p>The Iter route is known as the Iter Itinerary. The heaviest convoy  that will travel along it will weigh 800\u00a0tonnes (including the transport  vehicle), and loads can be up to be 10.4\u00a0metres high, the longest  33\u00a0metres, and the widest 9\u00a0metres. To prepare for such exceptional  convoys, a three-year program of French-fundedlarge-scale public works has already been completed along the 104\u00a0km road route to widen roads, reinforce bridges and modify intersections.<\/p>\n<p>Iter transports, which can only be conducted at night to minimise  disruption, are carried out by the project\u2019s global logistics provider,  Daher. The company is using a specially adapted self-propelled trailer, weighing in at 200\u00a0tonnes, to carry the oversized Iter  components. With 88\u00a0axles and 352\u00a0tyres, the trailer has a driver cab  and engine at each end.<\/p>\n<p>Requiring a combination of barge and heavy-lift pontoon, the maritime portion of the test convoy saw the trailer and its load carried from the port of Fos-sur-Mer  to the port of Berre L\u2019Etang, and was completed on 1\u00a0April. The  convoy\u2019s onward journey was scheduled to take place over the next three  nights, but technical issues with the trailer\u2019s hydraulic system meant  that the journey was instead completed over four nights, with no  transport taking place over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>A first test convoy was carried out last September but was unable to  include the 26\u00a0km crossing of L\u2019Etang de Berre as the special barge  needed to ferry the trailer and its 600-tonne dummy load had been  stranded in Turkey by adverse weather conditions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A 600-tonne dummy load has completed a journey by land and water to test out the logistics of transporting major components to the Iter fusion reactor site in southern France.
