Operational Impact
The implementation of the SUPERLOAD system and LARS Bridge has significantly improved the efficiency and reliability of the permit issuing process at WVDOT. The system's ability to perform real-time analysis of routes and clearances has greatly enhanced the safety and sustainability of the state's road infrastructure. The system also provides WVDOT with more complete and better-organized historical data, with fast retrieval of information through built-in reports and advanced search capability. This information helps the Permit Office better manage staffing and hours and can augment performance- and risk-based asset management and capital project planning. The outsourcing of the permit processing system to GotPermits.com has further streamlined the process, reducing infrastructure and maintenance costs for WVDOT and improving public safety and care of the transportation infrastructure. | |
