Each blade is loaded onto its transport vehicle at the yard in Batangas and moves by night convoy, with police escort, to the shore of Laguna de Bay. The vehicle carrying the blade rolls onto a barge, crosses the lake and rolls off on the far shore. From there the convoy continues to the start of the mountain road, then along a steep, narrow road to the turbine sites.
On the mountain section the blades travel on self-propelled blade lifters. Where trees, roofs and tight bends are in the way, the lifter raises the blade at the angle set by the route survey and transport plan.
The work follows an approved method statement, journey management plan and clearance drawing set, with toolbox talks and journey briefings, and daily progress reports to the client.
