Truckways Transport Ltd. calls itself "The Northern Specialist," and has served Yukon's heavy-haul and oversize-load community since the 1970s. According to the company, it was founded in 1967 and reorganized in 1977, and it now advertises more than 40 years of experience in pilot car service and traffic control. Based in Whitehorse, it moves with loads over the Alaska Highway and other northern routes, where distances are long, services are sparse and weather can change quickly.
A wide or tall load on a northern highway needs more than a permit. It needs an escort that knows the road, communicates clearly with the driver and protects other travellers. Truckways Transport provides that escort with radio-equipped vehicles and fully insured drivers, available around the clock according to its website.
The company lists its service area as the Yukon, Northwest Territories, northern British Columbia and Alaska, and it also provides escort service in Alberta. Typical loads include modular buildings, mining and construction equipment, oilfield and drilling equipment, bridge components and other freight that exceeds standard highway dimensions. Requirements for pilot vehicles differ between jurisdictions and depend on the load and route, so it is best to share your permit details when you call.
