Information

This scale is a new super-coop for the state of New Jersey. Truck parking will not be allowed at this scale other than repairs, out of service and inspections. This scale had a “projected completion” of fall 2006 but was not open until spring 2007 due to construction delays.

There was a real buzz among truckers regarding this scale and the one under construction on the east bound side of the freeway. Especially considering how long the construction project was going on- rumors were abundant.

The smaller, older east bound weigh station just west of this scale has been ripped completely out of the ground.

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.

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!
