With the mild temperatures, the half-load season in the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry will start a bit earlier this year on Friday, February 17th.
The Counties and its partners among local municipalities have designated February 17th as the start of half-load season. The Counties and the Township will be limiting the weight of materials to five tonnes per axle on the weaker roads located throughout the region. This applies to all roads within the Township of North Dundas.
Roads that are subject to seasonal weight restrictions are identified with a sign. Half-loads will be enforced once signs are posted and will likely run into the early part of May.
Except the following locations, most roads within SDG are subject to half-load restrictions:
- South of Highway 401 on County Road Nos. 1, 14, 33 and 35.
- County Road 1 from French Settlement Road to Belmeade Road
