Book Synopsis Bridge Rating Practices and Policies for Overweight Vehicles by : Gongkang Fu
Download or read book Bridge Rating Practices and Policies for Overweight Vehicles written by Gongkang Fu and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2006 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 359: Bridge Rating Practices and Policies for Overweight Vehicles explores overweight vehicle permit processes. The report includes information on state and provincial bridge rating systems, bridge evaluation practices, and permit policies as they relate to overweight and oversize vehicles. The report is designed to help in the understanding of the reasons for nonuniform permitting practices. The report reviews specifications, software types, treatment of nonstandard configurations, and allowance for in-place dead loads; processes of permit review; and personnel assigned to permit review.
Book Synopsis Regulation of Weights, Lengths, and Widths of Commercial Motor Vehicles by : Transportation Research Board
Download or read book Regulation of Weights, Lengths, and Widths of Commercial Motor Vehicles written by Transportation Research Board and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2005-07-14 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB Special Report 267 - Regulation of Weights, Lengths, and Widths of Commercial Motor Vehicles recommends the creation of an independent public organization to evaluate the effects of truck traffic, pilot studies of new truck designs, and a change in federal law authorizing states to issue permits for operation of larger trucks on the Interstates. In 1991, Congress placed a freeze on maximum truck weights and dimensions. Some safety groups were protesting against the safety implications of increased truck size and weight, and the railroads were objecting to the introduction of vehicles they deemed to have an unfair advantage. Railroads, unlike trucking firms, must pay for the capital costs of their infrastructure. The railroads contend that large trucks do not pay sufficient taxes to compensate for the highway damage they cause and the environmental costs they generate. Although Congress apparently hoped it had placed a cap on maximum truck dimensions in 1991, such has not proven to be the case. Carriers operating under specific conditions have been able to seek and obtain special exceptions from the federal freeze by appealing directly to Congress (without any formal review of the possible consequences), thereby encouraging additional firms to seek similar exceptions. In the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century, Congress requested a TRB study to review federal policies on commercial vehicle dimensions. The committee that undertook the study that resulted in Special Report 267 found that regulatory analyses of the benefits and costs of changes in truck dimensions are hampered by a lack of information. Regulatory decisions on such matters will always entail a degree of risk and uncertainty, but the degree of uncertainty surrounding truck issues is uunusually high and unnecessary. The committee concluded that the uncertainty could be alleviated if procedures were established for carrying out a program oof basic and applied research, and if evaluation and monitoring were permanent components of the administration of trucking regulations. The committee recommended immediate changes in federal regulations that would allow for a federally supervised permit program. The program would permit the operation of vehicles heavier than would normally be allowed, provided that the changes applied only to vehicles with a maximum weight of 90,000 pounds, double trailer configurations with each trailer up to 33 feet, and an overall weight limit governed by the federal bridge formula. Moreover, enforcement of trucks operating under such a program should be strengthened, and the permits should require that users pay the costs they occasion. States should be free to choose whether to participate in the permit program. Those that elected to do so would be required to have in place a program of bridge management, safety monitoring, enforcement, and cost recovery, overseen by the federal government. The fundamental problem involved in evaluating proposals for changes in truck dimensions is that their effects can often only be estimated or modeled. The data available for estimating safety consequences in particular are inadequate and probably always will be. Thus, the committee that conducted this study concluded that the resulting analyses usually involve a high degree of uncertainty. What is needed is some way to evaluate potential changes through limited and carefully controlled trials, much as proposed new drugs are tested before being allowed in widespread use. The committee recommended that a new independent entity be created to work with private industry in evaluating new concepts and recommending changes to regulatory agencies. Limited pilot tests would be required, which would need to be carefully designed to avoid undue risks and ensure proper evaluation. Special vehicles could be allowed to operate under carefully controlled circumstances, just as oversize and overweight vehicles are allowed to operate under special permits in many states. Changes in federal laws and regulations would be required to allow states to issue such permits on an expanded network of highways, under the condition that a rigorous program of monitoring and evaluation be instituted.Special Report 269 Summary
Book Synopsis Aligning Oversize/overweight Fees with Agency Costs by : Teresa Adams
Download or read book Aligning Oversize/overweight Fees with Agency Costs written by Teresa Adams and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project provides an elementary analysis of issues and a proposed framework for the state to evaluate cost recovery options due to oversized and overweight (OSOW) operations. The authors provide a review of current permitting practices, provide a sampling of fee structures, and outline preliminary trends for OSOW demand in the foreseeable future. The basis for the project is the Midwest States, but the findings incorporate national trends and data as appropriate. The research team surveyed state DOTs for information on permit fee structures and the respective distribution and allocation of permit revenue. The research team did not attempt to determine roadway, infrastructure, and other impacts of OSOW loads, but rather document studies that attempt to monetize these values and provide observations. A methodology is proposed to generate said costs, but the validation of such methodology was outside the scope of this study. Finally the project report details other considerations, including truck-to-rail diversion potential if permit fees are increased. A series of best practices is provided to help guide the operations of a permitting process.
Book Synopsis Oversize/Overweight Vehicle Unified Permitting Process (UPP) Phase I by : Renae Kuehl
Download or read book Oversize/Overweight Vehicle Unified Permitting Process (UPP) Phase I written by Renae Kuehl and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multiple jurisdictions within Minnesota process oversize/overweight (OSOW) permits for the movement of freight on state roadways, county roads, and municipal and township streets. Movement of freight has increased in recent years to help support economic trends and construction needs. These moves often require haulers to offload from state roadways onto the county or municipal and township roadways for final delivery, causing pinch points (i.e., construction, vertical clearance issues, etc.) which may negatively impact the forecast life cycles of both roads and bridges. With haulers moving across roadway authorities, there is a desire to develop a unified process to support OSOW permits. This report outlines the feasibility of implementing an OSOW unified permitting process (UPP), to be used by multiple roadway authorities, allowing a "one-stop-shop" for haulers and permitting agencies.
