What are Road Bans?
- Road bans are weight restrictions that reduce the maximum weight allowed on any carrying axle of a truck or trailer by the percentage specified.
- Road bans reduce damage to County roads during spring break-up, when moisture-filled pavement and soils are susceptible to damage from heavy-weighted vehicles.
- Road bans minimize the amount of repair and repaving needed to maintain a high road standard. They do not affect standard passenger vehicles.
