A great explanation from MDOT!

We're definitely into spring now. Got another batch of seasonal weight restrictions on state roads (I, M and US routes) starting at 6 a.m. Monday morning in the .

Note - these are spring weight restrictions that happen, you got, every spring on routes designated as "seasonal" (designated in solid or dashed red on the MDOT Truck Operators Map). Sometimes these are referred to as frost laws. There will be a posted weight reduction of 25 percent for rigid (concrete) pavements and 35 percent for flexible (asphalt) pavements.

When roads that have been frozen all winter begin to thaw from the surface downward, melting snow and ice saturate the softened ground. During the spring thaw, the roadbed softened by trapped moisture beneath the pavement makes it more susceptible to damage.

County road commissions and city public works departments put in place their own seasonal weight restrictions, which usually, but not always, coincide with state highway weight restrictions. Signs are generally posted to indicate which routes have weight restrictions in effect.
