Every year during the period from March 1st to approximately May 31st all roads within the Township of Muskoka Lakes road system are subject to reduced loads. A limit of 5 tonnes per axle is in effect until May 31st or a date determined by staff when the restriction can safely be removed.
Truck operators travelling through the Township (not making a local delivery) are legally obligated to use only roadways designated as permissive truck routes.
All roads within the Township are subject to the weight and dimension restrictions as set out in the Highway Traffic Act. An Oversize/Overweight Permit is required for individuals or companies wanting to move loads that exceed Ontario Ministry of Transportation legislated limits on height, length, width, or weight.
