JOINT CITY IPORT HEAVY CONTAINER PERMIT PROGRAM

On March 30, 1993 the Oakland City Council passed OrdinanceNo. 11568 which allows the Chief of Police to designate newroadways for the movement of heavy containers. This is to enableadditional facilities to have access to Port marine terminals.

Theoretically, this amendment to the original Permit Ordinance10702 of 1986 opens up all of Oakland to heavy permit moves.However, new permit routes must first be approved by theDepartment of Public Works to insure that they cross no above-ground or sub-grade structures. Also, no residential streets maybe used. These restrictions will tend to keep these movementswithin the industrial and heavy conunercial districts of Oakland.

As with the original Joint Port/City Heavy Container Program,these permits allow the movements of 40+ foot containers only.Separate permits must be obtained from both the City and the Portby the trucker. Special three-axle chassis must be used, andthere are speed and hour restrictions.

The main benefit of the program is that it allows up to 15,000

lbs. more payload in a container. Many shippers wish to maximizethe loading of the numerous heavy commodities that move throughWest Coast Ports.

In order to serve a facility that is not on the current heavycontainer route, a trucker must write a letter to:

The Chief of PoliceOakland Police Department455 Seventh StreetOakland, CA 94607

with a copy to:Director of Public WorksPublic Wor~ Department1330 Broadway -Oakland, CA 94612

Advise the name and address of the facility you wish to serve andrequest that your permit be amended to allow you to do this.

Offers Unique Efficiencies

One of Oakland's major advantages isthe proximity of its marine container

terminals to its intermodal rail facilities.Another advantage is a program recently devel-oped by the port in response to the growingtrend toward per-container rates for manycommodities.

The program, jointly developed by the portand the Oakland Police Department, allowswaterfront operations by trucks whose grossweight, including tractor, chassis and loadedcontainer, does not exceed 95,000 pounds.Normally, the weight under California law is80,000 pounds, so shippers are able to load anadditional 15,000pounds.

Shipments conforming to the permitrequirements are then allowed to move over adesignated network of routes linking the port'smarine terminals, intermodal rail yards and allmajor container freight stations within the har-bor area.
