Development of Advanced Weigh-In-Motion (A-WIM) System for Effective Enforcement of Overweight Trucks to Reduce their Socioeconomic Impact on Major Highways

The main objectives of this project are (1) to evaluate the infrastructure damages incurred by the overweight (OW) permit trucks, (2) to compare the permit policies between states to check understand how each state handles the OW permits, and (3) to develop the methodology to minimize the error in weighing the truck weight (gross vehicle weight and axle weight). These objectives are designed to advance the final purpose, which is to establish a testbed in New York City or New Jersey and to develop an integrated autonomous enforcement system for screening trucks for overweight violations.
