摘要: A total of 4,500 trucks that routinely travel on Interstate 75 (I-75) and Canadian Highway 401 are part of the Advantage I-75 Operational Test Project. Advanced technology in the form of Mainline Automated Clearance System (MACS) will allow truckers to have their weight and credentials checked at highway speeds without being processed at weigh stations. Advantage I-75 is a partnership of public and private interests along this commercial corridor, striving to reduce congestion, increase efficiency, and enhance safety for motorists. This article describes the 2-year operational test, explains the automatic vehicle identification (AVI) technology that will process trucks on the mainline, and predicts the costs and benefits of MACS. This intelligent transportation systems (ITS) technology will benefit both the trucking and enforcement communities--making it a win-win proposition for everyone.
