摘要

Canada has ten provinces and three territories, each with responsibility for truck size andweight regulations. These regulations became increasingly diverse by the mid 1970's, andresulted in many vehicles with undesirable dynamic performance and/or excessive impact oninfrastructure. The provinces determined that the diversity in regulations was a barrier tointernal trade, and collectively, created a process that has now effectively harmonized them.This paper documents the history of changes made by the provinces through the 1970's and1980's, the process used to harmonize them, and describes how the process continues to beused today to maintain the regulations.The paper identifies steps taken in the 1970's and 1980's that resulted in unexpected andundesirable outcomes, and steps taken during the harmonization process that resulted in theintended outcomes. These provide useful technical lessons, which may be of use to the U.S.federal government, a state, or a group of states, if any should choose to make changes totheir truck size and weight regulations. The process used in Canada was administrative andnon-political, and it had a well focused purpose of achieving size and weight harmonizationto increased transport efficiency and national competitiveness. The subject matter containedwas complied for a research project titled "Review of Canadian Experience with LargeCommercial Motor Vehicles" sponsored by NCHRP.
