Spring Load Restrictions

Spring truck weight restrictions on state highways will begin Wednesday for Minnesota's central frost zone. The Central frost zone includes Todd, Morrison, Mille Lacs and southern Crow Wing County. 

Spring weight restrictions for the south, southeast and Twin Cities Metro area frost zones began today.

Mn/DOT limits truck weights to prevent damage to roads weakened during the spring thaw.

Ending dates for spring load restrictions are established by monitoring roadway strength as weather conditions change. All changes are made with a minimal three-day notice.
