Senate Bill 1524 amends the Transportation Code to authorize the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles to issue an annual permit for the movement of a sealed intermodal shipping container moving in international transportation by a six-axle or seven-axle truck-tractor and semitrailer combination. The bill sets out permit conditions, requirements, and route restrictions and requires the Texas Department of Transportation to conduct a biennial study concerning vehicles operating under the permit.
