TOPEKA — The state has been working out a streamlined permit process for trucking companies hauling super-sized loads through the state. Normally, such giant truck loads are wind turbine blades and towers. The Kansas departments of transportation and revenue, and the Kansas Highway Patrol, have created the Kansas Truck Routing and Intelligent Permitting System called K-TRIPS. K-TRIPS is Web-based and allows truckers to find routes that are the safest and those best able to handle the giant size and loads.
