A system and methods of impact avoidance for a load transport system are provided. The method includes coupling an elongated load to a transport vehicle, wherein the load includes a supported portion and a cantilevered portion such that the cantilevered portion exceeds a support dimension of the transport vehicle. The method further includes coupling at least one proximity sensor to the load, determining a distance from either the proximity sensor or the load to an object in the field of view of the sensor, transmitting the signal corresponding to the determined distance to a control unit, comparing the determined distance to a predetermined allowable clearance distance and generating a signal based on the comparison.
