Information
This scale is a super-coop that was under construction in 2006. New Jersey State Police say that truck parking will not be allowed at the scales other than repairs, out of service and inspections.
There was a real buzz among truckers regarding this scale and the one under construction on the west bound side of the freeway due to the lengthy construction time.
Truckers trying to bypass the weigh station via routes 57, 173 and 22 should be aware that sensors may have been installed to detect outlaw big rigs.
And the costs of building the weigh station- reported to be $69 million- mean that the inspectors will be looking for violations to pay for the facility. Homeland Security dollars only cover equipment, according to news reports. They don't cover the actual construction or the manpower. Better get your ducks in a row!
