Parks Canada has announced a set of Spring road restrictions for highways 19 and 10 within Riding Mountain National Park.
Effective immediately, weight restrictions of 6,006 lbs or 2,730 kg gross vehicle weight are in place on Highway 19 within the park. This would roughly equal an empty three-quarter ton truck or a loaded half-ton truck.
The restriction will stay in effect until weather and road conditions improve.
As well, the usual restriction on Highway 10 remains in effect. This restriction prohibits heavy truck traffic, that is trucks with three axles or more, within the boundaries of RMNP, except for deliveries to certain places.
