The oversized cargo transportation market in Poland actively participates in developing the economy, providing services necessary for implementing large infrastructure and industrial projects on a national and European scale. Development and functioning of this sector in the EU and globally requires overcoming many organisational, technical and administrative barriers and difficulties, and the authors of several publications indicate how these services are developing. The current study contains a detailed analysis of data from 2001-2022. The paper characterises the changes in particular years, indicating the main causes of the occurring processes, and defines the existing trends. It presents the legal framework that regulates the functioning of the domestic market. Moreover, it discusses the number of permits and the value of fees for issuing permits collected by the General Directorate for National Roads and Motorways (Generalna Dyrekcja Dróg Krajowych i Autostrad, GDDKiA) over two decades. The article also evaluates trends concerning the number of licenses more than 50% decrease compared to the maximum in 2008. It assesses the course of changes in values, which in 2021 reached their highest level during the period under assessment. Furthermore, it discusses the differences that occurred in the number of permits issued and applications submitted in the years 2014-2022. It describes the structure of the number of permits issued in categories IV-VII in 2014-2020 and categories III-V in 2021-2022. It characterises the course of the largest operation in the history of Polish road haulage - the transport of an abnormally-sized TBM (Tunnel Boring Machine) - in terms of requirements and problems that occurred during the preparation and fulfilment of this order and were typical for the functioning of the sector. The evaluation provides the basis for summaries and conclusions on the Development and condition of the oversized cargo transportation sector in Polish road transport sector.

In order to select the optimal transportation route among alternative transportation routes more accurately and objectively, the choice of urban oversize cargo transportation routes was studied by taking the optimization weight–TOPSIS combination method for specific calculations. This model, based on an entropy weight method, cloud model, and TOPSIS method, combines the superiority of the cloud model for reflecting the randomness and discreteness of subjective evaluation with the advantages of the TOPSIS method in dealing with the problem of multi-objective programming. Through selecting and classifying several the main road influencing factors of urban oversize cargo transportation, based on the data of four urban roads, the entropy weight method is used to initially determine the weights of each influencing factor, the cloud model is used to optimize weights, the TOPSIS method is used to compare and evaluate the paths, and the optimal transportation route is selected on this basis. The results showed that the optimization weight–TOPSIS method is scientific and accurate for the multi-objective planning of oversize cargo transportation route selection, and solves the problem of the impact of subjective factors in existing methods and the difficulty of processing multiple influencing factors. The Pearson consistency test results show that the Pearson correlation coefficient between the proposed method and the actual oversize cargo transportation route selection is 0.995, which is higher than the calculation results without using the combination weight.

Global Assessment of Bridge Passage in Relation to Oversized and Excessive Transport: Case Study Intended for Slovakia

et al. 2022

The development of an economy and, in particular, the construction of new infrastructure as well as industrial enterprises creates demand for the road transport of oversized freight that exceeds the maximum permissible total mass of vehicle combinations with its share on the axles. Failure to comply with the defined technological processes and a deficiency in the assessment of permitting such forms of transportation can have a large adverse effect, predominantly on the lifetime of bridges in a road network, which can have international implications as well. There is no legislation adopted by the EU Member States, which would at least partially unify the authorisation procedures of these forms of transportation and, therefore, it results in problems when crossing borders and leads to differences related to the assessment of bridge passages. If there is no systematic inspection of this kind of transportation, it can lead to permanent damage of these bridges as well. Currently, and not only in Slovakia but also in other states, the assessment of bridge passage for certain routes is used for heavy and oversized transportation. It means that if we use 100 transports, 100 assessments of individual routes are needed, although some are the same routes or the same vehicles/vehicle combinations used for a number of transports. Thus, the authors designed a global assessment for bridge passage in relation to heavy and oversized road transport while verifying it in the conditions of the EU Member State from Central Europe–Slovakia. Roads are full of different types of vehicles/vehicle combinations for which the axle loads and distances of the axles (wheelbases) are important. Thus, there were vehicle/vehicle combinations parameters (big data) observed, for which the routes relating to heavy and/or oversized transportation were assessed from 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2020 in Slovakia. The global assessment of bridge passage introduces an entirely new approach within the procedure for obtaining a special permission for road use as well as within transport use itself. Given the low presence of freight with an abnormal axle load or enormous total mass, it is appropriate to define the limited conditions under which it would be possible to implement the global assessment in practice as well.
