Super Trucks * Australia - Put to the test
Port Botany,Sydney,Australia -The Southern Courier/The Village Voice, by Nick Moncrieff-Hill -22 Jan, 2008: -- The Roads and Traffic Authority has announced a three-year trial of a new range of super-sized container-carrying trucks that will initially operate solely within the Port Botany precinct... The super B-double trucks, which are 30m long and able to carry two 12m containers, will only travel as far as the Australian Customs cargo x-ray facility on Bumborah Point Road for the extended trial period... The RTA, however, has refused to rule out the possibility that the massive trucks will be used on more of Sydney's roads once the trial has been completed, which should be about the same time as the completion of the Port Botany expansion project...
