The National Transport Commission in Australia has proposed a national framework for B-triple operations that includes basic vehicle specifications and operating conditions. B-triples are vehicle combinations composed of a prime mover towing three semitrailers. The commission anticipates that the national framework will replace the inconsistent state-by-state approaches, which largely discourage the use of B-triples for interstate operation. This paper presents productivity, safety, and infrastructure impact analyses (covering pavements and bridges). It also presents a cost–benefit analysis that includes the safety and environmental benefits of national B-triple operation.
