Municipality implements annual Spring Weight Restrictions
To minimize potential damage to municipal roads, the Halifax Regional Municipality will introduce its annual spring weight restrictions, beginning at 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, February 27.
These restrictions are for heavy vehicles travelling on municipally maintained roads. Residents can view which roads are exempt from spring weight restrictions on a new web-based map, or by reviewing the attached list. Regular weight tolerances apply on exempt roads.
The weight restrictions are expected to remain in place into the spring, at which time the municipality will advise when the restrictions are lifted.
The municipality’s spring weight restrictions are consistent with those of the Nova Scotia Department of Public Works. More details of vehicle restrictions can be found online.
