DM Cranes were appointed to deliver a specialist contract lift project involving the removal and installation of updated ITV signage following a rebrand and colour change. The scope of works required precise coordination across two high-profile city centre locations, Leeds and Manchester, both of which presented unique access, timing, and lifting challenges.
The project involved safely removing the existing branded signage from elevation, transporting the units, and installing new replacements in line with ITV’s updated brand colours. Given the prominence of both sites, careful planning was essential to minimise disruption to public areas, surrounding businesses, and live operational environments.
DM Cranes delivered a fully managed contract lift solution, including lift planning, risk assessments, method statements, and on-site supervision. Our appointed persons coordinated each stage of the operation, ensuring that all lifting activities were executed safely and efficiently. Crane selection was tailored to each site’s constraints, with meticulous attention paid to load weights, reach requirements, and ground conditions.
Working closely with ITV and their contractors, the team ensured both installations were completed within strict timeframes, aligning with the wider rebrand rollout schedule. Weather conditions, pedestrian management, and city centre logistics were all factored into the planning process.
Both lifts were completed successfully, with zero disruption and full compliance with safety regulations. The project demonstrated DM Cranes’ ability to manage complex, multi-location contract lifts in busy urban environments while maintaining precision, professionalism, and safety at every stage.
