PC*MILER Routing Types
Heavy/Light Vehicle Routing
(Override Restrictions)
In addition to the five basic route types, the Heavy and Light
Vehicle routing option is also a critical setting. A “heavy vehicle” is
one weighing at least 80,000 pounds; a “light vehicle” weighs less
than 80,000 pounds.
When
Override Restrictions
is left unchecked, Heavy Vehicle
routing will be in effect, so both truck-prohibited and
truck-restricted roads will always be avoided. In addition, Heavy
Vehicle routing takes nationwide 13’ 6” height restrictions into
account.
If checked see page 49.
