OVERLOAD * USA - Our grain feeds the world...
but... Shipping it is destroying our roadsJoliet,IL,USA -The Joliet Herald News, by Cindy Wojdyla Cain -Jan 24, 2007: -- Requests for overweight truck permits are skyrocketing in Will County... This presents a huge dilemma for county officials who have to balance the intricacies of foreign trade with microlocal concerns over wear and tear on county highways... If county officials clamp down on overweight trucks, they could hurt area granaries that truck their product to BNSF Logistic Park in Elwood. If they don't, taxpayers could pay the price as county roads crumble under heavier loads... (Photo, by STEVE BUYANSKY: The number of overweight truck permit requests almost doubled from 825 in November to 1,566 in December)
