Effects of Revised Toll‐by‐Weight Policy on Truck Overloading Behavior and Bridge Infrastructure Damage Using Weigh‐in‐Motion Data: A Comparative Study in China

Abstract: Since 2000, overloaded trucks have caused more than 50 bridges to collapse in China. In an effort to ensure the structural safety and extend the service life of the highway infrastructure, the Chinese government has proposed a series of policies in the past decade to mitigate truck overloading. This study aimed at investigating the effects of China’s recently revised toll-by-weight policy on truck overloading behavior and bridge infrastructure damage using weigh-in-motion data that spanned seven years (January… Show more

“…The larger the overloading is, the more likely it is to cause major casualties [48]. During 2000-2018 in China, more than 50 bridges collapsed due to overloading of heavy trucks [49]. According to China's relevant laws, drunk driving is a "crime of dangerous driving", which will receive criminal punishment, while for the more dangerous overloading of trucks, only administrative penalties such as fines can be imposed.…”

“…The increment in traffic accidents which are caused by vehicle overloading has become one of the major issues for traffic management in Ghana. According to Huang (2019), a traditional static weighing system is used in weighing vehicle(s). Huang (2019) posits that there are many unsolved problems in existing weighing technologies where measuring instruments have to be installed in the concrete of roads to measure the weight of vehicles.…”
