The Highway Traffic Act authorizes the province and municipalities to restrict truck weights during spring thaw to protect roads and highways:
Spring weight restrictions may be applied to schedule 1 King’s Highways at any time during March and April, to schedule 2 King’s Highways during March through May, and to schedule 3 King’s Highways during March through June depending on local conditions and weather. A list of highways that may be affected is included in this [MTO memo]. Up-to-date information about actual weight restrictions can be viewed at: https://511on.ca/list/seasonalloads and drivers /carriers who use the listed highways are encouraged to carefully monitor this website. The 511 interactive map also provides up-to-date visual information – choose map menu item “Truck and Bus info”, then check “Seasonal Loads”.
Municipalities may also pass by-laws and set dates when spring weight restrictions apply to specified roads under their jurisdiction. Watch for on-road signage.
During Reduced Load Periods, weights are generally limited to 5,000 kg per axle, although certain exemptions apply as set out in Highway Traffic Act, Section 122: https://www.ontario.ca/laws/statute/90h08#BK217
Unless otherwise specified on the permit, ‘annual’ and ‘project’ overweight permits are not valid during March and April in southern Ontario, and during March, April and May in northern Ontario.
Drivers they’ve heard from the carriers and now they need to hear from YOU !!! The Canadian and US governments have both recently announced that essential travelers, including truck drivers, must be fully vaccinated to enter their countries via the land border. For those entering Canada, the policy is set take effect on January 15th, and for those entering the US, it will kick in on January 22nd.
Announcement Dec 7th from the Canadian Government: Government of Canada will require employees in all federally regulated workplaces to be vaccinated against COVID-19 “The new regulations would ensure that employees in all other federally regulated industries, such as road transportation, telecommunications, and banking, are also vaccinated.”
We are concerned about the impact on the supply chain with these mandates.We are looking to inform government with hard data and need your help to do so.
Please take a moment and complete this survey by end of day on Wednesday December 15th 2021.
