Abstract:

The Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) developed an automated permitting system called the Kansas Truck Routing and Intelligent Permitting System (K-TRIPS) to issue permits for all OSOW trucks. Using four years of data from K-TRIPS (2014‒2017), the research team developed a series of heat maps using ArcGIS to help visualize the routes OSOW trucks were using to travel through the state of Kansas. It was found that around 87 percent of the approximately 72,000 annual OSOW trips in Kansas were taken by five industries (general construction equipment, general freight, agriculture equipment/implements, wind energy, and oil and gas equipment), and that the majority of fluctuation in the consistency of routes travelled came from two industries (wind energy and oil and gas equipment).
