Abstract

The article deals with the issues of a passage of excessive transport on the roads and with ensuring necessary height and width conditions for such transport in the Czech Republic. Currently, the regulations for designing roads for passage of excessive and oversize cargos are missing in the Czech Republic. Based on these aspects, the research in this area was done and the parameters for ensuring passage of excessive loads on the roads were determined. The article describes the issue of the transport within the Czech Republic, it also describes the created database of transport and its subsequent statistical analysis. Furthermore, it describes the process of determination of the resulting parameters, which should serve as a basis for the legislation and for creation of technical conditions.
