Cambodia Directs Sand Depots to Curb Overloaded Transport

The Ministry of Public Works and Transport has instructed sand depots in Kratie province to cooperate in curbing overloaded transport. This initiative aims to protect road infrastructure and enhance traffic safety. A team led by Undersecretaries of State Kim San and Mui Marady, representing the committee overseeing overloaded transport vehicle inspections, collaborated with local authorities. They provided guidance and explanations to the owners of three major sand depots in the province regarding legal provisions related to transport and vehicle weight limits. The depots were urged to adhere to established standards and to prevent overloaded vehicles from leaving their premises. The Ministry of Public Works and Transport further advised all sand depot owners, companies, and transport vehicle owners to strictly cooperate in enforcing the law to protect road infrastructure, reduce traffic accidents, and ensure safe and sustainable transportation.
