A "weigh-in-motion" scale and the "PrePass" system were soon integrated into daily operations. The original scalehouse (the "Chicken Coop") was replaced with a new scalehouse office building in 2003. This building includes modern offices, locker rooms and kitchen amenities for the officers and inspectors.
