Second “Super Load” Will Head Toward Central Ohio Next Week

One week after the first “super load” headed out from Adams County, an identical second is due to follow the same route next week. The Ohio Department of Transportation and Ohio State Highway Patrol will escort the second large load, led by a Kenworth W900, beginning Thursday, March 14. It is scheduled to depart the same dock east of Manchester around 8 a.m. Like the first load, this one weighs 390,000 pounds, is 18’3″ tall, 18’6″ wide, and 200′ long and will be delivered to Hebron. It is not related to the Intel plant being built in Licking County. Due to St. Patrick’s Day, the city of Columbus will not allow the load to move through the city on Sunday, March 17, so it will remain at Rickenbacker Airport until Saturday, March 23. It is scheduled to reach Hebron on Monday, March 25.
