Weight Restrictions on Township Roads

Due to fluctuating temperatures, weight restrictions on Township roads take effect on March 2, 2026.

These half-load restrictions help maintain the Township's road network and infrastructure.

Depending on spring temperatures and weather conditions, half-loads may be lifted sooner than the usual May 15 end date.
