Case Study: WIM Accuracy and Reliability at Border
Category: ITS/Enforcement
November 8, 2019
Commercial vehicles traveling through the Port of Entry in Laredo, TX are weighed on Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) sensors for compliance with weight limits, tolling, and automated inspection. As the busiest commercial land port in the US transiting almost 7 million vehicle annually, WIM systems need to be accurate, maintain stable performance, and require minimal maintenance.
TransCore installed systems for the City of Laredo to replace older, frame-based WIM scales. Using Intercomp WIM Strip Sensors, the WIM sites use the same highly accurate strain-gauge based load cells, but system performance has increased, while maintenance and the associated down time for lanes has greatly decreased enabling greater, more efficient and cost effective operation.
