Reduced Load Limits
Reduced load restrictions (5 tonnes per axle) occur seasonally based on weather and road conditions and are marked by road signage. In Oxford County, load restrictions are generally in effect on Oxford County roads from March 1 to April 30 each year. However, as designated by the Director of Public Works, these dates may fluctuate depending on weather and in alignment with the Ministry of Transportation Ontario’s Reduced Load Period predictive tool.
The Reduced Load limit map shows the Oxford County roads that are affected by these restrictions. Restrictions on municipal roads are managed by the applicable Area Municipality.
