Highway 380, Highway 377, or FM 424 within the town are truck
routes. A person commits an offense if he operates a commercial truck,
truck-tractor, transit-mix truck, dump truck, semitrailer, or pole
trailer, or combination thereof upon a street or roadway within the
town, except Highway 380, Highway 377, or FM 424, except as specified

The operator of a truck, truck-tractor, transit-mix truck, dump
truck, semitrailer, or pole trailer, or combination thereof is restricted
to the streets designated as truck routes by this article may depart
from the truck routes when it is necessary to reach a truck terminal
or to load or unload merchandise at locations situated off designated
truck routes. The operator of the truck and/or trailer shall not leave
a designated truck route until he has reached a turning off point
leading to the ultimate destination of the vehicle by the shortest
practical route, which is consistent with the reasonable operation
of the vehicle. The operator departing from a designated track route,
under the provisions of this exception, shall not operate on streets
upon which truck travel is prohibited and is so posted.

The town may erect appropriate signs and markings advising motorists
of the truck routes established by this article, and of streets upon
which truck travel is prohibited by this article.

alternate truck routes.
