New road weight restrictions added

All roads in the Sandpoint and Clark Fork areas were posted with weight limits Monday morning.

As a reminder, a red flag or no flag on the sign indicates weight limits are in effect. A green flag indicates weight restrictions are imminent.

• District 1 (south of the Long Bridge) — All roads are posted with weight limits.

Birch Banks Road, Hanford Drive, Comeback Bay Lane and E. Comeback Bay Lane are posted no hauling, with the road open to regular residential traffic only. No trailers or loaded truck beds are allowed on the roads at this time.

• District 2 (Priest River/Priest Lake) — All roads north of the Pend Oreille River between and including Anselmo Road and Wrenco Loop, all roads in Laclede south of U.S. 2, and W. Settlement and Dufort roads are posted with weight limits.

• District 3 (Sandpoint/Clark Fork) — all roads have been posted with weight limits.

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.
