Senate Bill 524 amends Transportation Code provisions providing an optional procedure for the issuance of a permit by the Victoria County Navigation District for the movement of oversize or overweight vehicles carrying cargo in Victoria County. The bill authorizes the issuance of such a permit only on certain specified highways and roads in the county. The bill also increases the fee per trip and the maximum allowable weight of a vehicle carrying cargo on the highways and roads. In addition, the bill adds the signature of the district director's designee as an alternative to the director's signature that is required on a permit.
