Road Restriction Information

The R.M. of Vanscoy has developed a web site, www.rmvanscoy.ca to provide information to the public and residents.

As part of this site we will try to provide information to the trucking industry regarding road closures and weight restrictions.

With the high water levels in the fall and the large amount of snow this winter, we expect there may be spring restrictions on roads that normally would not be restricted.

As spring approaches we will provide information under the "news" section of the web site that can assist you in moves you may have thru the R.M. We encourage you to check often to see if the roads you need to use are affected.

Hopefully by working together we can help you conduct your business and help us prevent damage to our roads.
