Oversize/Overweight Permits
Oversize/Overweight permits are official approvals required for vehicles or loads that exceed standard size or weight limits set by transportation regulations. These permits ensure that such vehicles can travel safely and legally on public roads, often with specific conditions like designated routes, time restrictions, or escort requirements. They help protect infrastructure and maintain safety by controlling the movement of unusually large or heavy loads, which could cause damage or pose hazards if moved without proper authorization. Obtaining these permits is essential for carriers to operate legally and avoid fines or penalties.
