This $2,000,000 Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) under the Motor Carrier Safety Assistance High Priority Activities Grants and Cooperative Agreements program (CFDA 20.237) will fund the I-90 Mitchell eScreening System Project for the South Dakota Department of Transportation. The project will deploy an electronic screening system at a new weigh and inspection station on eastbound Interstate 90 near Mitchell, South Dakota. The system will include automatic vehicle identification, mainline weigh-in-motion, over-height detection, tire anomaly classification, and integration with the Drivewyze e-screening platform. This will allow compliant motor carriers to bypass the weigh station, reducing their costs for fuel and driver time while improving overall motor vehicle safety. The project is scheduled for completion by September 30, 2027.

The purpose of this award to the south dakota department of transportation is the i-90 mitchell escreening system project, which will benefit the motor carrier industry by allowing compliant carriers to bypass weigh station thereby saving them costs associated with fuel and driver time that otherwise would have been expended and increasing motor vehicle safety. This project will deploy electronic screening at a new weight and inspection station to be constructed on eastbound interstate 90 east of mitchell, south dakota. The electronic screening system will include: automatic vehicle identification by transponder and license plate reader, mainline weigh-in-motion, mainline over-height detection, mainline tire anomaly classification sensors and a live link to drivewyze e-screening.
