Reduced load restrictions of 5 tonnes per axle will take effect for many Grey County-owned roads on February 15. Restrictions are being activated about two weeks earlier than usual this year in alignment with local municipalities due to the seasonal conditions.
Roads are at their most vulnerable in the spring as frost leaves the ground. Load restrictions help extend the lifespan of the road surface by minimizing damage from heavy vehicles. Depending on weather conditions, restrictions are typically lifted around May 1. If restrictions are to be extended or lifted early, Grey County will provide notification through its website, www.grey.ca.
For more information, contact the Transportation Services Department at roads@grey.ca or call 1-800-567-4739.

At South Grey News, we endeavour to bring you truthful and factual, up-to-date local community news in a quick and easy-to-digest format that’s free of political bias. We believe this service is more important today than ever before, as social media has given rise to misinformation, largely unchecked by big corporations who put profits ahead of their responsibilities.
South Grey News does not have the resources of a big corporation. We are a small, locally owned-and-operated organization. Research, analysis and physical attendance at public meetings and community events requires considerable effort. But contributions from readers and advertisers, however big or small, go a long way to helping us deliver positive, open and honest journalism for this community.
Please consider supporting South Grey News with a donation in lieu of a subscription fee and let us know that our efforts are appreciated. Thank you.
