DOT WILL REVIEW NAFTA TRUCKING
The U.S. Department of Transportation and its counterparts in Mexico and Canada invite input from the industry during the North American Free Trade Agreement’s land transport meeting in San Juan Del Rio, Queretaro, Mexico, Oct. 23-27.
The governments’ Land Transportation Standards Subcommittee will discuss compliance and driver/vehicle standards; vehicle weights and dimensions; hazardous materials transport standards; and traffic control devices.
The Transportation Consultative Group will review cross-border operations and facilitation; rail safety and economic issues; automated data exchange; science and technology; and maritime and ports policy.
“This is an opportunity for presenters (industry representatives) to voice their concerns, provide technical information, and offer suggestions relevant to achieving greater standards compatibility and improving cross-border trade,” DOT said.
