KAWARTHA LAKES-Load weight will be restricted on most secondary roads throughout the municipality effective 12am March 11. Road conditions will be continually monitored and the restriction will be lifted when road conditions merit.
Restrictions are typically put into place during the spring thaw, when road damage is most likely to occur due to heavy loading. This program identifies and imposes load restrictions on roads, or portions of roads that are weakened by excess water in the road base. Once the road has been determined to be structurally sound, load restrictions may be rescinded.
Due to the fluctuating weather pattern forecasted (warm weather and significant rain), Kawartha Lakes is imposing load restrictions to protect the integrity of the road network. Operations will monitor conditions and amend the notice as appropriate.
The table below lists roads in the City of Kawartha Lakes that will not be load restricted. All other roads will be in a load restricted state per the date on this notice in accordance with By-Law 2016-062.
