Monitoring and Control of Overweight Trucks for Smart Mobility and Safety of Freight Operations

Technologies to screen overweight trucks including high-speed weigh-in-motion (HS-WIM) system integrated with license plate reader and/or security camera, and the feasibility of such technologies compared to current screening practices at weighing stations are being evaluated. In addition, infrastructure damage cost associated with the overweight trucks, as well as permits, are being evaluated to provide guidelines in developing the overweight and permit policies and fee structures. Two Apps, one for autonomous ticketing and the other for damage cost evaluation, will be developed.
