Dewsbury adds to fleet

UK crane rental company Dewsbury & Proud has taken the first of three Liebherr All Terrain cranes and has appointed a new sales manager.

Part of a £2 million investment, the first crane to arrive was a 50 tonne LTM 1050-3.1, with a 90 tonne LTM 1090-4.2 and a 110 tonne LTM 1110-5.1 set to follow in the coming months.

Managing director Tim Proud, said: “The LTM 1050-3.1 is a very reliable, well engineered and operator friendly All Terrain crane which we use every day across a wide range of applications throughout the Midlands. The new machines will mean a third of our fleet is made up of Liebherr cranes.”
