Director Paul Kavanagh said: "We are delighted to add these new Liebherr cranes to the Kavanagh Crane Hire fleet. The addition of the LTM 1500-8.1 increases our capacity to 500 tonnes and we have already tried and tested the LTM 1090-4.1 and LTM 1130-5.1. Both these models have proved themselves over the last few years with their great reliability."
