AN ACT relating to the transportation of milk.

This bill would allow trucks carrying fluid milk from farms to their first point of sale to travel on any state highway in Kentucky, as long as the vehicle weighs up to 90,000 pounds, with a 10% weight allowance built in. Current law limits where heavy vehicles can travel, and this change would give milk haulers more flexibility in choosing their routes. It also makes a related update to existing transportation law to keep the rules consistent. Who it may affect: dairy farmers, milk transporters, and trucking businesses involved in moving fluid milk from farms to market.
