Tank Transport Coordination

Coordination and execution of a multi-county oversize tank transport requiring permits from four separate jurisdictions. A preliminary route survey was conducted to verify bridge ratings and clearances. Pilot cars led and followed the load throughout transit. GPS tracking provided real-time position data for the project coordination team.

Breakdown

DOT OS

Oversize Permit Chain

Permits obtained sequentially from all four county authorities and TxDOT. Permit conditions reviewed for move-time restrictions, escort requirements, and restricted corridors. All permits available in cab during transit.

ROUTE SURVEY

Pre-Move Highway Assessment

Licensed route survey engineer conducted full route inspection 48 hours before move date. Bridge load ratings confirmed, overhead utilities measured, intersection turn sweeps verified using scale diagram.

PILOT CARS

Front & Rear Escort

Two certified pilot car operators maintained front and rear escort throughout the route. Radio communication with transport driver maintained at all times. Pilot car operators authorized to halt traffic at uncontrolled crossings.

GPS TRACKING

Real-Time Position Monitoring

GPS tracker installed on transport vehicle provided real-time position data to project coordination team. Data archived as part of chain-of-custody documentation for the transported vessel.
