From what I understand, the percent of trucks surveyed in 2014 transporting dangerous goods was only 1.9%. So we are only excluding a small aspect of goods movers that cannot actually enter GMT.

There was a finding in that report that light trucks with dangerous goods represent 25% of that 1.9% statistic compared to 6% of heavy trucks. Light trucks would have no problem redirecting to AFB.
