Description

Press release from the Wright County Government: March 14, 2022 The spring load weight restrictions on Wright County highways and roads will take effect at 12:01 a.m. Friday, March 18. The restrictions are put in place annually to preserve the life of roads, which are at their most vulnerable when frost comes out of the road bed and temperatures go above and below freezing on a consistent basis. Typically, the restrictions last for approximately eight weeks, which would have the restrictions come off in mid-May. Here is a map of the 2022 spring load restrictions and the explanation why they are so important: https://www.co.wright.mn.us/904/Spring-Load-Restrictions An interactive map can be viewed here This press release was produced by the Wright County Government.
