America is growing, and so are our shipping needs.
That's why the Coalition for Transportation Productivity (CTP) is asking Congress to raise the interstate weight limit for six-axle trucks.
Heavier - not bigger - trucks will allow us to safely:
- Meet demand with fewer trucks.
- Reduce our carbon footprint.
- Improve shipping productivity.

 Ask Congress to Support Truck Weight Reform.
Lawmakers should take a wise and necessary step by passing the Safe and Efficient Transportation Act (SETA), H.R. 612.
SETA gives states the option to selectively raise interstate weight limits for trucks equipped with six axles instead of the typical five. The sixth axle maintains all braking and handling characteristics so the truck can safely ship more goods. SETA would make highways safer, greener and more efficient.
