Abstract

The objective of this research was to review and summarize the most current information on the Mexican experience with changes in truck size and weight limits and to evaluate the potential applicability to size and weight limits in the United States. The major activities involved in this research were to investigate truck size and weight limits in Mexico, determine the concerns of U.S. border states, develop options to address those concerns, and conduct Mexico/U.S. analysis to determine what the United States can learn from the Mexican truck size/weight experience.
