    A new legislation increasing the allowable maximum total truck weights from 600 to 760 kN was launched in Finland on October 1st 2013. On certain important transportation routes maximum truck weights even ex-ceeding 1 MN (100 tons) are allowed with special permission. While this has enabled positive development in transportation efficiency and the amount of traffic induced emissions, questions have also arisen regarding traffic safety and especially the loading effect of super heavy trucks on the road infrastructure. This paper gives a brief overview of the research projects that have been carried out on the latter topic in Finland from summer 2013 to summer 2016
