Seasonal Highway Weight Restrictions

As we transition from winter to spring, roadways must withstand an extreme range of moisture and temperature conditions. These varying conditions affect the structural strength of the pavement and the base materials under the roadway. To help protect our roadways, seasonal weight restrictions will be placed on the roadways listed below. The seasonal weight restrictions typically occur from mid-March to the end of April.

Weight restrictions remain in place until posted signs are removed. Please check our website frequently for up-to-date information. The following information is for county and town roads within St. Croix County. For information on weight restrictions on state highways visit the Wisconsin Department of Transportation website.
