Caltrans WIM Stations
Status: Existing
Description
Weigh in Motion (WIM) devices are designated to capture and record axle weights and gross vehicles weights as vehicles drive over a measurement site. WIM systems are capable of measuring vehicles traveling at a reduced or normal traffic speed and do not require the vehicle to come to a stop. Caltrans administrates the Commercial Vehicle Operations (CVO) WIM for California. This includes pre–pass stations at the national ports–of–entry and weigh stations at international ports–of–entry; WIM is also used for traffic monitoring and pavement preservation.
