March 2, 2026
The 2026 seasonal load restrictions will go into effect on Olmsted County roads on Tuesday, March 3, 2026. The weight limit will be posted at each individual county road. The end of the seasonal load restriction period is no longer fixed at eight weeks. It will now be based on how weather is affecting roadway strength and monitored as conditions change. Therefore, ending dates for seasonal load restrictions for each road will vary, and restrictions will remain in effect when the roadway is posted.
An interactive map for the 2026 Seasonal Load Restrictions can be found at the following link: Olmsted County 2026 Seasonal Weight Limits Map.
