Seasonal weight limits went back into effect across St. Clair County as of Monday. The county road commission says truck drivers must cut axle weights by 35 percent and slow down to 35 miles per hour on restricted roads until conditions improve. Overweight and building-move permits are on hold unless specially approved. The limits help protect local roads from freeze-thaw damage. Routes like 24th, 32nd, Capac, and Gratiot remain open as All-Season Roads. The full list is posted by the St. Clair County Road Commission.
