How Much Load Can That Road Hold?

In spring, as temperatures rise, roads start to weaken. The thawing releases water in the road, that can’t drain efficiently, if the surrounding soil remains frozen, This reduces the road’s ability to support heavy loads, so we put seasonal load limits on certain roads, or stretches of road, for heavy vehicles.
