Summary: | The purpose of the research is to estimate the opportunities of such “smart” technology as the automated systems of Wight-in-Motion control (weight-and-dimensional control in the highways), to promote the improvement of the situation with the freight transportation by motor transport. The methods of weight-and-dimensional monitoring are considered. Advantages and disadvantages of the automated system in comparison with the traditional one are revealed. The conclusion is drawn on the cost recovery and financial expediency of the projects of introduction of Wight-in-Motion control systems. Obtaining such economic, ecological and social results as the reduction of cases of excesses of admissible mass of freight, perfecting the logistic activity in our country, collecting additional income for the regional budget, the decrease in the destroying impact on highways, the decrease in the expenses on their repair as well as providing sources for financing of such repair, the decrease in ecological harm from driving of overweighted vehicles, the increase in traffic safety, the reduction of quantity of accidents and life losses, caused by driving of the overweighted vehicles are proved.
