Action plan for the removal of the Bridlington whale will involve roads and slipways being closed and a sledge being used to haul the 25-tonne mammal off the beach
Large crowds have turned up to view the mammal and parts of the South Beach have been cordoned off by police to prevent people standing on the body.The council intend to use a special ‘sledge’ which will be dragged off the beach by plant machinery with the animal fastened to it. The whale will then be removed by a crane and transferred to a low loader.
After the Christmas Eve 2020 mass stranding at Withernsea, only one whale of the pod – weighing 20 tonnes – was on East Riding Council-owned land. Contractors Landplant deployed a sledge that was hauled by three JCBs working in a ‘chain’ formation to an exit ramp from the beach. It was then taken to a rendering plant for disposal.
