About HMT News
After stepping away from the industry for sevral years, I experienced a rare period of quiet and peace — something I had never truly known before. Yet even during those calm days, I could never forget the vibrant, intense, and inspiring world of the Heavy Transport Industry, where I’ve spent my entire career. The energy of the people I worked with, the excitement of every new project, and the bonds we shared have always stayed with me.
This lasting connection is what led me to return — not simply as an observer, but with the desire to create a dedicated platform for this unique industry. HMT News was founded to bring together old friends, colleagues, and new professionals, offering a space where we can share updates, exchange knowledge, and keep the spirit of the heavy transport community alive.
Our goal is to discover and share small but important stories, to deliver news that truly matters to industry professionals, and to report with accuracy and speed — building a trusted hub for the heavy transport community.
Thank you for being here — and welcome back to the conversation. ⚓
