Owners and operators of trucks and articulated vehicles were yesterday put on notice that the government will soon install road scales to avert the significant damage being done by heavy-laden trucks.

This was disclosed by Public Works Minister Juan Edghill during a meeting with truck drivers who operate articulated, low bed, haulers and heavy goods vehicles, at the Guyana National Stadium, Providence, East Bank Demerara.

Edghill said that overloaded and speeding trucks that continue to damage public roads create added expenses for the ministry.
