摘要: Heavy freight vehicles are a concern for many local agencies due to the damage they can cause to roads. Weigh-in-motion systems can provide useful data about freight vehicles that use a given road, but current systems are expensive. They are also permanent, requiring costly and intrusive pavement cuts or boring to install. A University of Minnesota Duluth researcher developed a portable WIM system prototype that can be installed with tape and anchors in less than 40 minutes and that costs significantly less than permanent WIM systems. The prototype’s portability gives agencies the flexibility to gather data at multiple locations without additional—and generally impractical—costs of purchasing a new system.
