CASE HISTORY# 40
Eagle West Extracts Car from Excavation
On September 2, 2010 a two car accident took place at Main
Street and East 30th in Vancouver B.C. and with a major
construction site in close proximity, things took a turn for the
worse. A sedan barreled through the site’s safety fence and
plummeted into a large excavation, four stories below.
The site belonging to Trafalgar Enterprises, a Vancouver based
real estate development company had crews at work just hours
before the crash. Thankfully, the project was clear of workers
and amazingly both drivers survived the accident with only minor
injuries.
Although the insurance company wanted to delay removing the
car, Leo Pascuzzi, Site Superintendant for Trafalgar Enterprises
knew he could depend on Eagle West Cranes to provide the
precast and crane services needed to safely and efficiently
restore the job site to working order.
With the safety fence damaged, cement barriers supplied
and installed by Eagle West were used to secure the exposed
construction site. Then, utilizing a remote operated, 60 ton
folding boom crane the hazardous and unforeseen site condition
of the car was removed. “I called the morning after the accident
and needed a crane to pull out that car A.S.A.P. The service I
needed was done the same day I called,” commented Leo. By
enlisting the services of Eagle West, the project schedule was
recovered without any major setbacks due to the unforeseen
circumstances.
Testimonial
“Eagle West really stepped up to the plate. I called the morning
I needed a crane to pull out a car that had driven into an
excavation on a major construction site. When I called, they knew
exactly what to do and did everything I asked – they didn’t have
to – but they did and they did it fast!”
