ConnecticutUSDOT Compliance & Motor Carrier Operating Authority Information
Connecticut sits along the critical I-95 Northeast corridor connecting New York to Boston. The state has strict overweight vehicle enforcement and requires commercial vehicle permits for oversize loads. Port of New Haven handles petroleum and bulk cargo.
Connecticut's 2023 Highway Use Fee (HUF) caught many out-of-state carriers off-guard. It is a separate obligation from the federal BOC-3, but new Connecticut carriers sorting out state compliance often discover a missing BOC-3 process-agent designation at the same time.
