Reduced load restrictions for commercial motor vehicles and trailers will come into effect shortly on specific highways and streets within the City of Timmins.

By-law 2006-6275 governs load restrictions to protect our roads and highways during the spring thaw, when damage is most likely to happen. Typically, reduced load restrictions will be in place until mid-June and are subject to the provisions of Section 122 of the Highway Traffic Act RSO 1990 Chapter H 8.”

The by-law (https://timmins.civicweb.net/filepro/documents/258?preview=7545) provides a list of the applicable roads under Schedule A.

Roads with reduced loads in effect will have signage posted. Learn more about the how the City is working to maintain our roads at https://www.timmins.ca/our_services/roads_and_infrastructure.
