Spring Road Bans- Effective Monday April 1, 12:01 a.m. – Second Order 2024- Amendment 1

The attached order was just issued from the Ministry of Highways this afternoon, indicating that spring road restrictions for the RM of Hoodoo will be in effect starting Monday, April 1 at 12:01 a.m.

During the time spring road restrictions (bans) are in effect, vehicle weights are restricted as per the attached order. Permits to haul secondary weights on municipal roads during this time must be requested by calling the RM office and will only be issued if road conditions are conducive to hauling and the weather is cold enough (at least minus 5° Celsius overnight).

Road bans may be in place for up to six-weeks, which would take us to May 13th. The RM may opt out of spring road restrictions sooner than 6 weeks (weather and road conditions will be the determining factors); email notification will be sent if the RM of Hoodoo opts out of road bans earlier than May 13th.

New this year, ratepayers of the RM will be able to apply for a permit for a fee to haul primary weights once spring road bans are lifted. An email with specific information as to what is needed to issue this permit will be sent next week.

Any questions please call the office
