BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) - Officials in Bismarck say load restrictions in city streets and alleys could begin within the next two to three weeks depending on weather conditions.
Mark Berg with the city of Bismarck says contractors and truckers should plan on moving heavy loads before the restrictions go into effect.
Per city ordinance, any vehicle with an actual or registered gross weight of 10,000 pounds or more must use truck routes.
The city’s traffic engineer says officials are developing this year’s load restriction map.
Berg says the restrictions will be lifted when roadbeds have stabilized enough to carry normal loads.
