Pinard, Michael Ian2014-04-152014-04-152011-05https://hdl.handle.net/10986/17803The Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA), Southern African Development Community (SADC) and the Southern Africa Office of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA) working under the Regional Economic Communities Transport Coordinating Committee (REC-TCC) established under the leadership of the Sub- Saharan Africa Transport Policy Program (SSATP) have identified vehicle overload control as one of the priority areas. This paper is the third in a series of three publications dedicated to the overwhelming problem of overloaded vehicles damaging roads throughout Africa. The first paper presented the overall problem and related guidelines on developing sound and sustainable control measures based on lessons learned. These lessons learned captured in the second volume are from experiences collected in Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe, South Africa and Botswana, four countries where some good practices are emerging that could serve as a platform for wider replication in the Eastern and Southern Africa (ESA) region. The selection of these countries to be used as case studies was based on a previous survey carried out in some 18 countries representing four Regional Economic Communities (SADC, COMESA, ECOWAS and CEMAC).en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOADVERTISEMENTAIRAIR TRANSPORTAXLE LOADAXLE LOADSAXLESBACKBONEBITUMENBORDER TRAFFICBRIDGEBRIDGESBUSBUSESCALIBRATIONCAPABILITYCAPACITY BUILDINGCAPITAL EXPENDITURECARGOCERTIFICATECERTIFICATESCIVIL ENGINEERINGCOMMERCIAL VEHICLESCOMMUNICATION FACILITIESCOMMUNITY SAFETYCOMPUTERSCONSTRUCTIONCONTROL INFORMATIONCONTROL SYSTEMCONTROL SYSTEMSCRIMINAL OFFENCECROSSINGCULVERTSCUSTOMSDAY-TO-DAY OPERATIONDEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTDISTRICT ROADSDRIVERSELECTRICITYEQUIPMENTFINANCIAL MANAGEMENTFINANCIAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMFINANCIAL RESOURCESFRAMEWORKFREIGHTFUELGENERAL PUBLICGEOGRAPHICAL AREAGRADEGRAVELHAULAGEHEAVY GOODS VEHICLEHEAVY GOODS VEHICLESHEAVY VEHICLEHEAVY VEHICLE TRAFFICHEAVY VEHICLESHIGHWAYHIGHWAY OFFICIALSHUMAN RESOURCESIMPLEMENTATION PLANINFORMATION SYSTEMINSPECTIONINSPECTIONSINSTITUTIONINSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORKINTERNATIONAL STANDARDSINTERSECTIONLEGAL FRAMEWORKLEGAL ISSUESLOADINGLOCAL AUTHORITIESMAINTENANCE COSTSMANAGEMENT SERVICESMANAGEMENT SYSTEMMANAGEMENT SYSTEMSMETEOROLOGYMINISTRY OF TRANSPORTMODE OF TRANSPORTATIONMODES OF TRANSPORTMOVEMENT OF GOODSNATIONAL ROADSNATIONAL TRANSPORTNETWORKSOFFENDERSPARKINGPARKING AREASPAVEMENTPEAK TRAFFICPERFORMANCE INDICATORSPILOT PROJECTPOLICEPOLICY FORMULATIONPRIVATE PARTNERSHIPPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE SECTOR PARTICIPATIONPRIVATE SECTORSPROCUREMENTPRODUCTIVITYPROJECT MANAGEMENTPROTOCOLPROVINCIAL ROADSPUBLIC ROADPUBLIC ROADSPUBLIC WORKSRADIORAILRAIL NETWORKRECONSTRUCTIONRESULTRESULTSROADROAD ACCIDENTSROAD ADMINISTRATIONROAD AUTHORITIESROAD AUTHORITYROAD DEVELOPMENTROAD FUNDROAD INFRASTRUCTUREROAD MAINTENANCEROAD NETWORKROAD PAVEMENTROAD PAVEMENTSROAD SAFETYROAD SYSTEMROAD TRAFFICROAD TRANSPORTROAD TRANSPORT INDUSTRYROAD USERROAD USERSROADSROUTEROUTESROUTINE MAINTENANCESAFETY ISSUESSERVICE PROVIDERSSHARINGSITESSPEEDSTATE HIGHWAYSTRUCTURESSUPERVISIONSUPPORT STAFFTANDEM AXLESTARGETSTELEPHONETIMBERTOLLTOLL ROADTRACKSTRAFFIC CONTROLTRAFFIC COUNTSTRAFFIC LAW ENFORCEMENTTRAFFIC REGULATIONSTRAFFIC SIGNSTRAILTRAINING COURSETRAINING MANUALTRANSPARENCYTRANSPORTTRANSPORT CORRIDORSTRANSPORT INDUSTRYTRANSPORT MANAGEMENTTRANSPORT OPERATORSTRANSPORT POLICYTRANSPORT SECTORTRANSPORTATIONTRUCK DRIVERSTRUCKINGTRUCKSUNFAIR COMPETITIONVEHICLEVEHICLE INDUSTRYVEHICLE INSPECTIONVEHICLE LOADINGVEHICLE LOADSVEHICLE OPERATORSVEHICLE OVERLOADVEHICLE REGISTRATIONVEHICLE TRANSPORTVEHICLESVERIFICATIONVSATWORKING HOURSWORLD WIDE WEB10.1596/17803
