Although no spring weight restrictions have been formally put in place yet, MDOT has informed us that they are monitoring frost depth around the State and that the spring weight restriction season is upon us.
If you have equipment or materials you need to move in preparation for the upcoming construction season you may want to consider making those moves sooner rather than later when your efforts may be impacted by imposed state trunkline or county road weight restrictions.
MITA will keep you informed of all imposed trunkline weight restrictions statewide as we are notified about them.
Also, remember that permits to move overweight loads and loads over 14 feet wide are suspended during the spring weight restriction period. In addition, axle limitations on seasonal routes are reduced to less than legal loadings.
