Road Sign

Pursuant to Maine law, vehicles over 23,000 pounds will be banned from certain roads in Gray to help protect the roads during the spring thaw. The roads in question will have orange signs (seen right) placed on them to alert drivers to the restriction.

The weight restriction does not apply when the road is "solidly frozen," which is defined as when both the air temperature is below 32 degrees Fahrenheit and there is no water showing in the cracks of the road. Some vehicles are exempted from these restrictions or have special privilege, like emergency vehicles, public utilities, and heating fuel delivery, among others.
