The Public Works Department has lifted the seasonal reduced load restrictions for commercial motor vehicles and trailers effective Thursday, May 23, 2024, with the exception of Connaught Rd.

Reduced load restrictions are put in place to protect sensitive road infrastructure on certain highways and streets within the City of Timmins.  Heavy loads can damage roads that may be weakened by excess water in the road base. Some year-round restrictions stay in place on roads that are susceptible to damage from heavy vehicles.
