Effective immediately on March 24, 2025, the City of Grande Prairie is updating seasonal weight restrictions on gravel roads within city limits to be in effect 24 hours a day.
Previously in effect from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., the gravel road bans now apply around the clock to better protect road integrity during the spring thaw. All affected gravel roads are limited to 75% axle weight at all times until further notice.
