A 1496 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires DOT and DLPS to implement weigh-in-motion monitoring program.

This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Transportation (DOT) and Department of Law and Public Safety (DLPS) to establish a weigh-in-motion monitoring program. The program would install automated systems on roads near bridges to detect vehicles exceeding weight limits without requiring drivers to stop. These systems would automatically send structural monitoring notifications to DOT for potential bridge inspections and enforcement notifications to DLPS for weight limit violations. Both agencies must publish annual reports on system usage, violations, and costs, with the program funded from the Transportation Trust Fund.
