Spring Weight Restrictions Notice

The Oconto County Highway Department has announced seasonal spring weight limits on various county roads. These restrictions will take effect Friday, March 6 at 3:00 PM.

A permit application and the full list of restricted roads are available on the county website. For convenience, a direct link to the PDF is also posted here.

The Town of Abrams follows seasonal weight restrictions during the spring thaw to help prevent road damage. These limits typically mirror state restrictions and are posted accordingly:

• 6 tons for single axles

• 10 tons for tandem axles

Please note: the Abrams Park & Ride prohibits trucks over 8,000 lbs at all times.

Thank you for your cooperation in helping protect our local roads during the spring thaw.
