Stand Against Big Rigs on I-580
Reacting to pressure from the California Trucking Association (CTA), a freight industry lobbying group, Caltrans has initiated a study to evaluate the effects of overturning the decades-old ban on heavy trucks on Interstate 580. Overturning the Truck Ban will not only affect traffic on I-580, it will result in a major increase in truck traffic on Highway 13, as well as other East Bay highways and streets, as trucks find new routes to avoid congestion.
Discover critical facts about the Caltrans study and unite with neighbors committed to keeping our streets safe and free from 80,000 pound trucks
