A tool 24 to assist with the handling of road gullies 2 of various diameters comprises a main body 30 with first and second lifting holes 48, 50 spaced from a front edge 36 and a hook prong 32 extending at and angle from the front edge 36. The hook prong 32 may engage with a siphon hole 18 on the inner wall of a road gully 2, in particular a concrete road gully 2, and the front edge 36 may engage with the inner wall of the road gully 2. The first and second lifting holes 48, 50 are provided on the tool 24 to ensure that a road gullies 2 of different diameters and hence different centres of mass can be lifted and manoeuvred using the tool 24 while remaining balanced and substantially vertical. A recess 56 may be provided in the front edge 36 to accommodate a stopper or insert 20 for an upper port or rodding hole 16 on the inner wall of the road gully 2. A top plate 28 may be welded to the top surface of the hook prong 32. A through hole 60 may be provided in hook prong 32 for attaching a safety chain 62. A void 38 in the main body 30 may reduce weight and provide a handle.
