The Transfix Take On: State-to-State Legislation for Those That Move the World feat. Chris Smith

On this episode of The Transfix Take On, Chris Smith, Vice President of Transportation at the Specialized Carriers and Rigging Association (SC&RA), dives into specialized carriers' unique challenges due to varying state-to-state legislation. With oversized and specialized loads that don’t fit standard federal regulations, these carriers encounter operational hurdles and inconsistencies across states. Chris discusses SCNRA's major advocacy goals: achieving uniformity and harmonization in state regulations and creating a safer, more efficient permitting network. He emphasizes the importance of automating permit systems to improve accuracy, efficiency, and revenue collection for states. We also shed light on workforce issues and economic pressures facing carriers, highlighting SC&RA's efforts to raise awareness through a recently released white paper on the public benefits and economic dependency of crane rigging and specialized transportation. -- Disclaimer: All views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of Transfix, Inc. or any parent companies or affiliates or the companies with which the participants are affiliated, and may have been previously disseminated by them.
