SANDPOINT — Road limits are being implemented in some parts of the county, with more expected by Friday morning.
As a result, no early morning hauling is allowed on any Bonner County-maintained road that is posted with weight limits.
District 1 (south of the Long Bridge) — All roads are posted with weight limits. As a reminder, a red flag (or no flag) on a sign indicates weight limits are in effect for that roadway.
District 2 (Priest River/Priest Lake) — All roads are posted with green flags, indicating weight limits are imminent. All roads will be posted with weight limits by Friday morning.
District 3 (Sandpoint/Clark Fork) — All roads are posted with weight limits. As a reminder, a red flag (or no flag) on a sign indicates weight limits are in effect for that roadway.
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.
