Event Details
Road sustainability relies in particular on vehicle’s compliance with weight and size limits that were used for infrastructure design. Enforcement of weights and dimensions and access monitoring and permit are necessary to ensure such a compliance.
Several solutions have been investigated, tested or implemented around the World. Heavy good vehicle (HGV) monitoring and overloads detection or direct enforcement by weigh-in-motion (WIM) are among the most common deployed measures. Company profiling and admonition as preventive and dissuasive measures are under developments in some countries. Driver and company (carriers, shippers) managers training also contribute to better involve the stakeholders.
Access regulation by Intelligent Access Program (digital tools) and special permits monitoring and tracking are tools for infrastructure owners and managers and regulators. In some but rare cases, above all for large and sensitive infrastructure such as long span bridges, physical barriers may be installed to stop highly overloaded vehicles, or accumulation of too many heavy vehicles.
The relevant solutions vary depending on the type of infrastructure to protect, on the traffic condition and heavy vehicles’ characteristics. The problem solving is quite different for bridges or pavements.
The session will present different issues, as well as solutions and experiences tackling these critical issues, both in developed countries and LMICs.
