SANDPOINT — Other than a few exceptions, weight restrictions have been lifted from most county roads.

District 1 (south of the Long Bridge) — All roads have been lifted from weight limits except for Eichs, Sunset and Martin Bay roads.

District 2 (Priest River/Priest Lake) — All roads have been lifted from weight limits. However, residents should be advised that the detour for Eastriver Road, starting at the 5770 block, is Eastriver Loop in which the bridge has an axle limit of 3.2 tons.

District 3 (Sandpoint/Clark Fork) — All roads have been lifted from weight limits except for Trestle Creek Road.

Per county ordinance, it is the responsibility of the hauler to contact the Bonner County Road & Bridge Department to determine whether or not these restrictions are in place. The restrictions will remain in effect until changed, at which time updates will be posted.
