ICYMI: Congressman Simpson secured language in the fiscal year - TopicsExpress



          

ICYMI: Congressman Simpson secured language in the fiscal year 2015 House Transportation, Housing and Urban Development (THUD) Appropriations bill that allows trucks weighing up to 129,000 pounds on Idaho interstate highways. This legislative fix would allow Idaho commerce and business to compete on a level playing field against other states. This language comes after completion of a ten-year comprehensive Idaho study which found the weight increase would have no significant impact on roadway safety, nor would it significantly impact the structural soundness of Idaho’s bridges or pavement. The bill passed out of the THUD subcommittee on Wednesday, May 7th. capitalpress/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2014140509895&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+capitalpress%2FTSrG+%28Capital+Press+|%29
