Frozen Road Law in Effect

News | February 6, 2026 | 0 | by Morgan McCarthy
Frozen Road Law in Effect

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation said highways statewide are frozen.

Meaning Wisconsin’s “Frozen Road Law” is in effect for the entire state. The DOT activated the Frozen Road Law for Northeast Wisconsin in December. The seasonal weight restrictions allow vehicles hauling salt or abrasives for highway winter maintenance and certain forest products to carry more weight. The Wisconsin DOT website has an interactive map on season weight restrictions and information about overweight vehicle permits. CLICK HERE FOR MORE.
