Which code does this activity belong in?
Code 488490 covers establishments providing general support services to road network users, such as operating bridges and tunnels, providing pilot car services for oversized loads, and operating weigh stations. Motor vehicle towing services are classified separately in Motor Vehicle Towing, which is the primary distinction between these two categories. Driving services for automobile and truck delivery also fall within this code's scope, covering establishments that facilitate road transportation infrastructure and logistics support rather than recovery or displacement of vehicles.
