The number of trucks on many highways in Texas and across the nation has increased to the point that special or unique roadway design treatments may be warranted. As particular corridors have become increasingly dominated by truck traffic, or in locations where truck traffic might reasonably be segregated, questions have arisen regarding accommodations and treatments to address issues caused by truck traffic that may be appropriate for those corridors. This research investigated the sensitivity of current Texas design practice to the unique operating characteristics of large commercial vehicles and determined threshold conditions under which design should reflect these larger vehicles.
