25. Energy and Infrastructure Jobs Acts
conduct a three year study on increasing the truck weight to 88,000 pounds with five axles and 97,000 pounds with six axles.
80,000 lbs. United States gross limit went into effect 1981
97,000 lbs. Europe limit (44 tons)
103,000 lbs. Canada average limit (46.5 tons)
(western province of Alberta, Canada: 140,000 lbs./63,500 kilograms)
107,000 lbs. Mexico's limit (48.5 tons)

26. Conclusion
International ocean container volume had slow growth in 2011, expect same for 2012
53’ domestic container volumes increased dramatically in 2011, expect even more truckload-to-intermodal conversion in 2012
With increase in intermodal volume and demand for CSA safety scores, expect more truckload carriers to offer stand-alone drayage service.
