The South Dakota Department of Transportation (SDDOT) recently confirmed that select highways will see these limitations lifted this week. However, they emphasized that their spring load restriction report is a general guideline and that posted load restriction signs hold precedence. To access a copy of the official load restriction report, you can contact the SDDOT directly at 605-773-3571.

Important Considerations for County Roads

South Dakota transportation officials noted that load limits on county roads are distinct from state highway restrictions. The county determines and enforces these limitations. If you have specific questions about load postings on county roads, contact the designated county superintendent directly.

Stay informed and protect South Dakota’s road infrastructure during this seasonal transition by adhering to the most current guidelines.
