Spring Roadway Weight Restrictions Begin March 2, 2026

Public Works Department Posted on February 27, 2026

As the spring thaw begins, Watertown’s roads become more vulnerable to damage caused by overweight vehicles. To protect our infrastructure, the City of Watertown will implement roadway weight restrictions starting Monday, March 2, 2026.

The maximum load limit is seven (7) tons per axle. If your vehicle exceeds this limit, you must contact the Street Superintendent at (605) 882-6207 or the City Engineer at (605) 882-6200 to pre-approve your haul route.

We appreciate your cooperation!
