Warm weather means a daytime load limit of 5,000 kg will be in effect on Wednesday, Feb. 4 for the Fort Chipewyan Winter Road and the La Loche Winter Trail. This weight restriction is needed to limit damage to the roads.

Traffic will be restricted to light vehicles only (5,000 kg) from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Wednesday. The limit will go back to 45,000 kg after 10 p.m. for the Fort Chipewyan Winter Road and 27,500 kg for the La Loche Winter Trail.

Crews are getting closer to completing snow removal at least once this winter on all streets in the Winter Maintenance Zone (WMZ) program. This does not mean that work is finished, as snow removal operations continue in all subzones, prioritizing streets in most need of maintenance if access is available.
