Background
The MAP–21 (Pub. L. 112–141)
requires DOT to conduct a
Comprehensive Truck Size and Weight
Limits Study (MAP–21 § 32801)
addressing differences in safety risks,
infrastructure impacts, and the effect on
levels of enforcement between trucks
operating at or within Federal truck size
and weight (TSW) limits and trucks
legally operating in excess of Federal
limits; comparing and contrasting the
potential safety and infrastructure
impacts of alternative configurations
(including configurations that exceed
current Federal TSW limits) to the
current Federal TSW law and
regulations; and, estimating the effects
of freight diversion due to these
alternative configurations.
The FHWA has requested a National
Research Council (NRC) committee to be
convened by TRB to provide a peer
review of the Comprehensive Truck Size
and Weight Limits Study. This will
include two separate peer reviews. The
first peer review will assess the Desk
Scan Reports based on their
thoroughness in reviewing the existing
literature, analysis of existing models
and data for conducting the
comprehensive study, and an overall
synthesis of the preceding body of work.
The second peer review will be on the
extent to which the technical analysis
and findings address the issues
