Protect our roads. Lighten your loads.
Road bans protect the safety and integrity of our roads. When the ground thaws, roads are more vulnerable to damage from heavy vehicles. To prevent this, vehicles are required to reduce their axle weight to 75% on most gravel roads and 50% for most oiled roads.
Road Weight Restrictions
The roads that have weight restrictions in rural Beaver County cannot withstand heavy or sustained loads and must be protected. Rural roads that allow loads at 100% axle weight during the summer, fall, and winter seasons change to 75% during Spring Road Bans.
