The province will begin to lift spring weight restrictions for trucks this weekend.
Starting Sunday, May 2, weight restrictions will be lifted in southern New Brunswick. In northern parts of the province restrictions will be lifted next Sunday.
In a release, Transportation and Infrastructure Minister Jill Green thanks truck drivers for following the rules this past season.
“It is important to note that some of our secondary routes will remain restricted or closed to trucks until the road conditions improve,” Green added.
The release states that weight limits are put in place to help protect roads during freeze-thaw cycles.
