Show Triple Trailers operate on 1-15 Highway The Utah Transportation Commission has approved the operation of triple trailer trucks on 1-15 between Cedar City and the Arizona Border. The Commission Com-mission stipulated that the triples must maintain a minumum speed of 20 mph at all times. Triples had been operating on this route for a test period of six months. UDOT personnel carefully studied the triples during this test period and observed ob-served no problems along the 1-15 route. The triples did not have any accidents and did not affect the flow of traffic. However, some of the trucks could not maintain the minimum 20 MPH speed on some grades. The Commission said that the UDOT would revoke the permits to operate triples from any company whose trucks could not maintain the minimum speed. |
