Oversize Loads / Weight Restrictions


Seasonal Weight Restrictions


Spring Load Restrictions end dates have been announced by the Commissioner of Transportation.

Spring weight restrictions for the Central Zone (south of TH 210 and TH 18 in Crow Wing County) end on Monday April 26, 2021 at 12:01 A.M.  Spring weight restrictions for the North-Central Frost Zone (north of TH 210 and TH 18 in Crow Wing County) end on Monday May 3, 2021 at 12:01 AM.  However due to soft subgrade conditions, posted restrictions will remain on county gravel roads until further notice.  

Cooperation and compliance with the legal posted limits is needed to minimize unnecessary damage to our roads

Minnesota Statute 169.87 establishes weight restrictions. The weight on any single axle shall not exceed 5 tons on any unpaved street or highway; or 10 tons on a paved street or highway unless posted otherwise between the dates set by the Commissioner of Transportation. 

Check the map for spring weight restrictions per axle for county roads.
