Heaviest load ever moved on British roads

There must be a reason and i would guess it road layout, weak bridges along the way etc...but taking it to Bristol to then float it all the way round to Hull and then move it by road again to Nottingham seems a bloody long way round...
why not drive it straight to Nottingham? would have made more sense...interested to know why such an **** about face route was chosen, there must be a perfectly valid reason...surely

There was a plan to shut them all down by 2011 but they realised if tehy did that half the country would be back in the stone age so they had to come up with another solution. Then after the Jap Tsunami they revisited the idea and decided to shut them all down ASAP. No idea when it will be though.

The Germans decided to phase out nuclear power not long after the Fukushima disaster. Now i'm not sure what they planned to replace it with, although a quick Google suggests there planning on going green.

there are also a lot of disused mines in Yorkshire as well, which it will have to pass over from port to Nottingham.
