Truck Bill Amended to Aid Local Villages
The amended bill extends to communities under 100000 and allows the Commerce commission to designate routes after 45 days if carriers and towns fail to agree. It removes the presumption of convenience and necessity for existing routes, enabling challenges to carrier operations. Zone control in traffic is sought to reduce through traffic in Glencoe Winnetka Kenilworth and Wilmette. The amendments await house concurrence and senate approval with strong backing from commission and Democratic factions.
