Longer Semi Trailer - Only Longer Trailer in UK undertaking LEGAL road trials under VSO

The 15.65m Longer Semi Trailer has continued trials on Northern Ireland Roads. The Longer Trailer Development, supported by Invest NI is currently undergoing trials under a DOE Vehicle "Special Order" within Northern Ireland. THIS IS THE FIRST AND ONLY LONGER TRAILER WHICH HAS BEEN GRANTED A SPECIAL ORDER WITHIN THE UK FOR ANY SUCH TRIAL! The Longer Trailer is 15.65m in length and fitted with a "Sidewinder Positive Rear Steer System". This technology means the geometry of the trailer is similar in comparison to a standard length trailer. To date, the trailer has demonstrated the ability to meet the legal turning circle criteria whilst ensuring proper load distribution within a standard overhang. It is suitable for use in a variety of applications such as flat trailers, curtainsiders, refrigerated trailers etc. In effect, this longer trailer design is longer, but importantly, does not compromise on proper vehicle design principles, practicality and safety. With advantages such as a 15% payload increase, fewer vehicles on the road and a reduction on CO2 emissions, the Longer Trailer is currently an interesting prospect for the future on UK roads.
