Abstract:

This paper gives particular attention to the importance of enforcement actions as an integral part of Truck Size and Weight Regulations, and to the potential impacts of changes in TS&W regulations, on the costs and effectiveness of enforcement activities. A great deal of recent research has been conducted on the problems of overweight travel and enforcement strategies to reduce overweight travel. Because of the relative importance of the economic consequences of overweight travel, such as pavement damage and industry costs and revenues, less attention has been given to vehicle dimension or vehicle specification enforcement issues. Little attention has been given to the specifics of whether and how potential changes in TS&W regulations will impact enforcement. Enforcement activities related to combined weight and safety enforcement are discussed in this paper.
