Transport industry players have developed a self-regulatory Charter in response to the challenge of dealing with issues affecting overloading through co-operation rather than detailed legislation.

The charter, to be signed next month, has been drafted by a committee bringing together eight private sectors and seven public organisations.

The charter outlines key performance indicators and responsibilities of various agencies involved in cargo transport.

The Northern Corridor Transit and Transport Co-ordination Authority, an intergovernmental regional body mandated among other things to facilitate trade along the corridor says that compliance to axle load limit was still low, standing at below 75 per cent.
