Steel grain silos, approximately 40 tons in weight and 25 meters in length, manufactured in a factory in Gebze district of Kocaeli, Turkey got stuck in electrical wires on the way to the port where they will be exported to England. The silos manufactured in Gebze were loaded on special transport trucks to go to Derince Port last night. The silos, with a truck length of 35 meters, were diverted to the old Istanbul road, as they reached a height of 5.70 meters and could not pass under the 4.5-meter bridge on the TEM Highway and the D-100 Highway. The 3 giant silos, loaded on the cargo ship from Derince Port, will set off to Manchester, England tomorrow, if the weather conditions are suitable.
