69 International Road Dynamics (IRD) is to supply, install and maintain a weigh-in-motion (WIM) sorting system at the Blunt Port of Entry on US Highway 14 and US Highway 83 in  South Dakota, US.  The project is valued at approximately US$1.1 million with installation to be completed by October 2017.  

The port-of-entry commercial vehicle identification system protects highway infrastructure by weighing all commercial vehicles, capturing licence plate numbers and directing suspected violators to report to the truck inspection station.

The project includes IRD's single-load-cell (SLC) WIM, intelligent roadside operation credentialing (iROC) system, and license plate reader (LPR) technology. Commercial vehicles are automatically identified and their safety, operating authority and credentials are verified, while confirming compliance with weight regulations.
