Our Projects
Glass Tunnel Transportation Project.
Al Sharif completed the specialised transportation of a large glass tunnel structure from Khalifa Bin Salman Port (K.B.S.P.) to Sakhir New Airport in January 2011.

Due to the exceptional length and dimensions of the cargo, the operation required a multi-axle modular trailer, careful route planning and controlled movement to ensure safe delivery.

Our Solution

Al Sharif prepared a customised transport plan based on the glass tunnel’s length, width, height and fragile construction.

A multi-axle modular trailer was used to distribute the load evenly and provide stability throughout the journey. The structure was supported and securely fastened to prevent movement, vibration or damage during transit.

The operation was supervised by an experienced transport team, with particular attention given to road clearances, turning areas, traffic control and access to the airport project site.

Project Result

The glass tunnel was successfully transported from K.B.S.P. to Sakhir New Airport in accordance with the planned schedule.

The project demonstrated Al Sharif’s ability to handle long, oversized and sensitive structures using specialised transportation equipment, detailed planning and controlled execution.
