In Dubai UAE, Port of Jebel Ali and Free Zone and Dubai World Airport at Jebel Ali took the original road and developed an oversize and overweight road from quay-side through the Free Zone and linked it into the new airport...Alliance/FortWorth//HongKong Model approach but for sea-air
 
So this is not a new concept...but I don't know that it can be applied to Tucson...and to the Mexico bridges and intersection...

I am very interested in seeing what models are provided to see how they might apply to the Nogales - Tucson corridor.

Hello,

I am trying to identify the various working models for a port area overweight

truck corridor program.   These programs recognize the unique need for

overweight cargo drays in the vicinity of ports and use ideas such as corridor

designation and permits to manage this activity.   The programs I have

identified to date are Los Angeles, Long Beach, Oakland, CA, and Tacoma,

WA.   These all follow a similar model so I am hoping this post will lead to

other kinds of working models.

Thank you very much!
