Winter load increases are in effect in North-Central frost zone
The Minnesota Department of Transportation will begin winter load increases on unrestricted highways in the North-Central frost zone at 12:01 a.m. Friday, December 20.
Winter load increases have already begun in the North frost zone.
Frost zones and restricted routes can be found on the MnDOT load limits map. Start and end dates and other load limit information are shown at mndot.gov/loadlimits.
Vehicles will be allowed to operate up to 10 percent over the standard legal maximum loads on unrestricted highways during the winter load increase period. However, trucks must comply with current registration weight laws and not exceed registered gross weight tolerances.
Please check with local agencies (cities, counties and townships) prior to increasing any weights on their routes.
The sign erected on the roadway governs the load limit in effect....
